13-week locum, 12-hour shifts

Full details

A locum tenens Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist is needed in Moline, Illinois, on a 13-week contract, with an immediate start available. The assignment calls for at least one year of experience, and the schedule is five 12-hour shifts running from 07:00 to 19:00.

The anesthetist would prepare and give anesthesia and oversee patient care before, during and after surgery. Other duties include taking part in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, stabilizing trauma patients, delivering critical care, and managing acute and chronic pain. The role also requires 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 where the work is performed, and a license that is not flagged or under investigation. A license for the assignment state can be obtained if one is not already held. A Bachelor of Science in Nursing is required, along with a Master's or Doctorate in Nursing Practice from an accredited CRNA program, with the DNP required beginning in 2025. Certification from the National Board of Certification and Recertification for Nurse Anesthetists is also required, along with continuing medical education to keep that certification and the medical licenses current.

Preferred experience is one to two years working as a CRNA or in an anesthesia setting. The ideal candidate communicates well with the surgical team, thinks critically, makes sound decisions, pays close attention to detail, and adapts quickly when a patient's condition changes.

Benefits described include placements in leading hospitals and health systems across varied care settings, competitive and transparent locum pay, and travel and lodging coverage. Malpractice coverage and risk management support are provided, along with in-house credentialing and licensing help and simple timekeeping and document management. Other benefits may be offered where required by law, including reimbursements.
