26-week locum, 8-hour shifts

Full details

A locum tenens Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist assignment is open in Crosby, Minnesota, structured as a 26-week contract. The candidate should have at least one year of experience, and a 5x8 schedule runs from 06:30 to 14:30.

The provider prepares and gives anesthesia, cares for patients before, during and after surgery, and takes part in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Duties also include trauma stabilization, critical care interventions, and the diagnosis and treatment of acute and chronic pain. The role calls for keeping current with new anesthesia techniques, equipment and medications, along with accurate and complete charting.

Candidates need an active, unencumbered RN license in the state where the assignment is located; a new license can be arranged if the assignment requires one. Licenses must not be flagged or under investigation. A BSN is required, along with an MSN or DNP from an accredited CRNA program, with the DNP required beginning in 2025. Certification from the NBCRNA is required, and continuing medical education is needed to keep that certification and the medical licenses active.

Strong clinical skill in delivering anesthesia, sound critical thinking, clear communication with the surgical team, and attention to detail while adapting to shifting patient conditions are all valued. Preferred experience is one to two years working as a CRNA or in another anesthesia setting.

The staffing firm offers access to leading hospitals and health systems across varied care environments, pay it describes as competitive and transparent, travel and lodging coverage, malpractice coverage with risk management support, and in-house credentialing and licensing help. Timekeeping and document management are handled through its systems.
