Are there other ICU travel nursing jobs near Kansas City, Missouri?

Yes! Advantis Medical frequently staffs ICU travel RN jobs in nearby areas. For your convenience, our similar jobs are sorted by distance so you can quickly review jobs that are close by.

If more than one contract looks like a fit, selecting “I’m Interested” on multiple assignments can give you more options to discuss with your recruiter.

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 a Missouri license necessary for this travel assignment?
No—Missouri belongs to the Nurse Licensure Compact, so an active multistate RN license covers this assignment. Applying by endorsement instead? Sequence and accuracy matter: apply through MOPRO before registering for fingerprints, and make sure your name, birth date, and Social Security number match across both systems, or the fingerprint step may have to be repeated. Our Missouri Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.
