Vital Medical Staffing is looking for dependable, compassionate Registered Nurses (RNs) to join our PRN team. This position is ideal for nurses who value flexibility, communicate well, and take pride in showing up when patients and facilities truly need support.

We partner with hospitals, long-term care facilities, behavioral health settings, and clinics. Because of that, no two shifts look exactly the same. Many of our assignments are PRN and last-minute coverage needs, so we're looking for nurses who are reliable, adaptable, and comfortable stepping into different environments while maintaining excellent patient care.

As a PRN RN with Vital Medical Staffing, you'll be responsible for providing safe, professional nursing care within your scope of practice. This includes administering medications and treatments, monitoring patient conditions, documenting care accurately, and communicating clearly with facility staff. You'll be expected to work independently when needed while still collaborating with the care team and following each facility's policies and procedures.

Reliability matters a lot in this role. Our facilities depend on us to send nurses who show up on time, prepared, and ready to work. Clear communication with our staffing team is also important, especially when accepting or declining shifts and reporting any concerns during an assignment.

What you'll need to qualify:
• Active and valid RN license
• Current TB test
• Active CPR/BLS certification
• CPR/BLS must be instructor-led and in person (online-only certifications are not accepted)
• Reliable transportation
• Strong communication skills
• Compassion for patients and a genuine heart for healthcare
• Ability to work PRN and accept last-minute shifts when available 
• Acute Care, Med-Surg, Critical Care, or ICU experience preferred.

Why nurses choose to work with Vital Medical Staffing:
We offer flexible PRN scheduling so you can pick up shifts that work with your life. You'll have access to a variety of facilities and settings, which keeps things interesting and helps you build experience across different environments. Most importantly, you'll have support from a staffing team that actually cares about you - we communicate clearly, advocate for our nurses, and do our best to make sure you feel prepared before each shift.

This role is a great fit for nurses who enjoy flexibility, take pride in being dependable, and want to make a real difference when coverage is needed most.

If you're an RN who cares about patients, communicates well, and can be counted on when it matters, we'd love to hear from you.
