What certifications are required for this ICU travel nurse position?
Every ICU travel nurse position will require Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS). If you’re heading to a neuro or stroke unit, you’ll also need NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Certifications like CCRN and PALS can be required in specialized units—and they’re always great to have to open up more opportunities. Simply click "I’m Interested" to connect with a recruiter who can walk you through exactly what’s needed for this role.
What kind of critical care experience is preferred for travel ICU jobs?
Facilities generally look for at least 2 years of recent critical care experience and confidence caring for complex or unstable patients. Experience with ventilators, titratable medications, hemodynamic monitoring, and the specific ICU population may be requested depending on the assignment. Click “I’m Interested” to connect with a recruiter about assignment-specific requirements.
Is an Illinois license needed for this travel assignment?
Yes—unless you already hold an active Illinois RN license. Illinois is not part of the Nurse Licensure Compact, so multistate authority issued elsewhere doesn’t apply. Apply for licensure by endorsement through IDFPR; eligible applicants can request a temporary endorsement permit to begin working while the permanent application is pending. Our Illinois Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.

Explore Chicago, IL
Hospital campuses line the Lake Michigan shore across Chicago, IL, from Northwestern Memorial Hospital to Rush University Medical Center. Emergency departments and large inpatient units run continuously through that academic footprint. Travelers weighing assignments often find contracts in Oak Park and Evanston, where many settle for the transit access. The CTA rail system ties many of the major medical districts together, so a lot of nurses skip the car and the parking entirely. When the day winds down, a walk along the Lakefront Trail or a stop at the Art Institute is an easy escape. At the city's scale, the practical question is rarely whether there is work, but which corridor to commute to.
