FAQs – ICU Travel Nurse Jobs Near Omaha, NE
What certifications do travel ICU jobs require?
Most travel ICU jobs require Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS). Neuro and stroke units commonly add NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS), and pediatric or mixed units may ask for PALS. The CCRN credential is preferred by many facilities and required by a few.
Will I float on a travel ICU assignment?
It depends on the facility and the contract. ICU travelers may float to PCU, step-down, ER holds, or other critical care areas, while some hospitals limit floating more narrowly. Float expectations are not always visible in the posting, so confirm the policy before accepting an assignment.
What experience is required for travel ICU RN jobs?
Most travel ICU RN jobs require recent critical care experience caring for high-acuity patients and independently managing ventilators, vasoactive drips, sedation, and invasive lines. Some units may also look for experience with CRRT, IABP, Impella, ECMO, or other advanced therapies. Requirements vary by ICU type, so facilities typically want your recent experience to closely match the patient population, devices, and level of care on the assignment.
What makes Bergan Mercy a high-acuity academic assignment for travel nurses?
Bergan Mercy is a Creighton-affiliated tertiary teaching hospital and Level I trauma center with advanced stroke, cardiac, surgical, and maternity services. Travelers may work with complex referral patients while collaborating in an academic environment.
What should critical-care travelers know about Bergan Mercy?
The cardiovascular ICU cares for surgical, cardiac, and trauma patients with respiratory failure, sepsis, multiorgan dysfunction, or advanced heart failure, with ECMO and Impella support available. ICU travelers may encounter advanced mechanical support alongside postoperative and trauma care.
