Travel Operating Room Registered Nurse
Employer: Nightingale Nurses (staffing agency)
Location: Sioux City, IA (in-person; hospital assignment)
Pay: $2,093 / week
Type: Full-time / Contract — Travel RN (Operating Room)
What You’ll Do:
Provide perioperative nursing care in the operating room: support surgical teams, prepare and maintain sterile fields, assist with patient positioning and transfers, monitor patients intraoperatively, document care, and follow facility-specific policies and procedures.
Why It Stands Out:
• Attractive weekly pay for a travel RN assignment.
• Short-term commitment (13-week assignment) — good for flexible or travel-focused nurses.
• Day-shift 3×12 schedule (consistent block shifts) — predictable weekly pattern.
• Placement through a recognized travel staffing agency with benefits and recruiter support.
Potential Trade-offs:
• Contract role — assignment-based (13 weeks) rather than permanent staff employment.
• Onboarding/competency expectations at a new facility — may require quick adaptation.
• Travel/temporary housing logistics and licensure requirements for Iowa (ensure state RN license or compact eligibility).
• Shift length (12 hours) may be physically demanding over the assignment.
Assignment Details:
• Start Date: 10/20/2025
• Duration: 13 weeks
• Hours: 36/week (3 × 12-hour day shifts)
• Specialty: OR — Operating Room
Qualifications & Requirements:
• Registered Nurse (RN) with relevant OR experience (verify agency/facility minimums).
• Must meet agency credentialing and facility onboarding requirements.
• Ability to work assigned 12-hour day shifts and perform perioperative duties.
Benefits:
• Health insurance (as provided through the staffing agency) — confirm specifics with the recruiter.

This is a good match if you want short-term travel work in perioperative nursing with a clear schedule and strong weekly pay. Would you take this assignment — or should I pull similar OR travel RN opportunities with different start dates, higher weekly pay, or extended durations?
