FAQs – Operating Room Travel Nurse Jobs Near Scranton, PA

What certifications do travel OR jobs require?
Most travel OR positions require Basic Life Support (BLS), and many hospitals also require Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS). CNOR is preferred by many facilities but required by only a few. Pediatric ORs may ask for PALS.
What recent OR experience is required for travel OR nurse jobs?
Most OR travel jobs expect confidence in general and orthopedic cases plus several additional service lines such as neuro, spine, urology, GYN, vascular, or ENT. Robotic experience is also commonly requested. Facilities may ask for a service-line skills checklist, so be specific about the cases you have circulated or scrubbed recently.
Do travel OR jobs include call?
Often, yes. Hospital OR assignments commonly include evening, overnight, or weekend call, while outpatient surgery centers are less likely to. Call frequency, required response time, and call pay vary by facility, so confirm all three before you accept.
Is Pennsylvania a compact state for this travel assignment?
Yes—and recently so: Pennsylvania fully implemented the Nurse Licensure Compact in July 2025, so an active multistate RN license now covers Pennsylvania assignments. Nurses applying for a Pennsylvania license complete FBI fingerprinting through IdentoGO using the service code provided during the application; applicants seeking a Pennsylvania multistate license must also complete an additional criminal-history check. Confirm current fees, requirements, and application steps with the Pennsylvania State Board of Nursing.
