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).

Certifications like CCRN and PALS can be required in specialized units—and they’re always great to have to open up more opportunities.

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.
Can I work this Ohio travel assignment on my compact license?
Yes—an active multistate RN license covers this assignment because Ohio is a Nurse Licensure Compact state. Otherwise, endorsement through the Ohio Board of Nursing adds two Ohio-specific steps: a criminal-records check and two contact hours covering Ohio nursing law and rules. Our Ohio Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.
Explore Columbus, OH
Across a sprawling central-Ohio metro, Columbus, OH is shaped by two large systems, the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and OhioHealth Riverside Methodist Hospital. Coverage leans on travelers to staff intensive care units and med-surg floors throughout the area. Openings frequently extend into Dublin, Westerville, and Grove City, which give clinicians practical bases and short commutes into the hospital districts. The metro keeps growing outward, which widens where a traveler can reasonably land. The flat, gridded layout and the I-270 outerbelt keep getting around simple, and after demanding stretches the Short North Arts District and the Scioto Mile trails along the river are close by. Between the academic centers and the community campuses, travelers usually have several contract options across central Ohio.
