PACU/Pre-Post Op Travel Nurse Job in Chico, CA | Variable (4x10)

The main hospital infrastructure for a broad slice of the northern Sacramento Valley runs through Chico, CA, drawing patients from farm towns and foothill communities well beyond city limits. That regional pull keeps emergency departments and medical-surgical units staffed with a regular rotation of travel nurses. The college calendar shapes the rental market; housing opens up in early summer and tightens fast by August, so contract timing affects what travelers find. Oroville and Yuba City sit within commuting range and sometimes carry their own assignments. Bidwell Park stretches for miles along the creek, big enough that locals treat sections of it as separate destinations. The Sierra Nevada Brewing taproom grounds the after-shift social scene for much of the local healthcare crowd.
