The schedule is 8-hour days, 07:00 to 15:30. This immediate opening is a 13-week locum tenens contract for a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. Candidates should bring at least one year of experience.

The role centers on preparing and giving anesthesia and caring for patients before, during and after surgical procedures.

Staying up to date on new anesthesia techniques, equipment and drugs is expected, along with thorough, accurate charting.

Prior work as a CRNA or in an anesthesia setting is preferred, typically one to two years.

The position calls for clinical skill in anesthesia delivery, sound judgment under pressure, clear communication with the surgical team, and close attention to detail while adjusting to shifting patient conditions.

Benefits include placements at leading hospitals and health systems across varied care environments, pay described as competitive and transparent, application and assignment assistance, in-house credentialing and licensing support, travel and lodging coverage, simplified timekeeping and document handling, and malpractice coverage with risk management resources. Other benefits may be offered where required by law, such as reimbursements.
