What is a Temp Asc RN?

Temp Asc RNs, or Temporary Ambulatory Surgery Center Registered Nurses, are licensed nurses who provide short-term or contract-based nursing care in ambulatory surgery centers. These professionals assist with preoperative and postoperative patient care, monitor vital signs, and ensure patient safety during outpatient surgical procedures. As temporary staff, they help fill staffing gaps and maintain quality care standards in fast-paced surgical environments. Their role is critical in supporting teams during busy periods or staff shortages.
