13-week locum, 8-hour shifts

Full details

The schedule is 8-hour days, 07:00 to 15:30. An immediate opening in Hanover, Pennsylvania calls for a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist on a 13-week contract. Applicants should have at least one year of experience, and the posting lists one to two years of proven work as a CRNA or in an anesthesia setting as preferred.

The role centers on preparing and giving anesthesia and on caring for patients before, during and after surgery. The CRNA also takes part in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, provides trauma stabilization and critical care, and diagnoses and treats acute and chronic pain. Ongoing duties include keeping up with new anesthesia techniques, equipment and medications and keeping patient records accurate and complete.

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

Strong clinical and technical skill in delivering anesthesia is central, along with sound critical thinking, clear communication with the surgical team, attention to detail and the ability to adjust to changing patient conditions. The employer will compare the candidate's profile against these qualifications.

Benefits include placements at leading hospitals and healthcare systems across varied care settings, pay described as competitive and transparent, and help with applications and assignment logistics. Credentialing and licensing support, travel and lodging coverage, simple timekeeping, malpractice coverage with risk management support, and other benefits required by law, including reimbursements, are also offered.
