Does my Med Surg background meet the experience requirements for this job?

Click “I’m Interested” to connect with a recruiter about assignment-specific requirements.
Does my compact license apply to this Indiana assignment?
Yes—Indiana recognizes active multistate RN licenses through the Nurse Licensure Compact, so no separate application is needed. For endorsement, sequence matters: don’t get fingerprinted until the PLA receives your application and emails the official service code—background checks completed early are invalid and must be repeated. Our Indiana Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.
Explore Indianapolis, IN
At the center of Indiana's referral network, Indianapolis, IN draws cases from much of the state into its larger hospital systems. IU Health Methodist Hospital and Ascension St. Vincent help carry that regional caseload, with travel coverage common in the ICU and surgical suites. Contracts tend to span the wider metro rather than cluster in one district, so a base in Carmel, Greenwood, or Fishers puts a direct highway commute between home and the clinical centers. The grid of interstates, anchored by the I-465 loop, is genuinely the city's commuting backbone. A Colts game at Lucas Oil Stadium or a walk along the downtown Canal Walk fills a day off without much planning.
