Special Requests: Housing in ME becomes more expensive in the summer months, beginning in May. Be sure to confirm you are comfortable with housing options before applying. You can only have 1 active application for the same position (same unit & shift at the same facility). Example: if you apply for day shift, you can also apply for night shift on the same unit and facility, but you cannot apply for another day shift position on the same unit & facility. Travel pairs: If you are in a relationship, EMMC will not schedule you on the same days. If you are not in a relationship, you can be scheduled for the same days if not on the same shift/unit. Managers will not guarantee the same schedule for travel pairs. If taking a full week off, you must be willing to extend the contract. Holiday time off requires approval from the nurse manager.

Patient ratios are ICU 1:2 based on acuity (a third patient may be assigned as one patient is being downgraded), PCU 1:3-4 based on acuity, and ED holds up to 6 depending on acuity (for example, Med-Surg = 1:5-6). Phlebotomy is a shared responsibility with the RN. Equipment includes Alaris and Pyxis.

Shift & Scheduling: RTO is allowed for up to 7 days. Weekend rotation is every other weekend (dayshift: Sat/Sun; nightshift: Fri/Sat). No call. Holiday expectations vary based on unit needs.
