FAQs – Med Surg Travel Nurse Jobs Near Chattanooga, TN
What certifications are required for Med Surg travel nursing jobs?
Med Surg travel nursing jobs require current BLS certification, and some units also require ACLS. Confirm the facility’s requirements with your recruiter.
How much experience do I need for a Med Surg travel nursing assignment?
Many facilities look for at least one to two years of recent Med Surg experience for travel positions. You should be comfortable managing multiple patients, prioritizing care, and handling admissions and discharges. Requirements vary by facility, and some units may also expect telemetry experience.
Does Tennessee honor my multistate license for this assignment?
Yes—an active multistate RN license covers this assignment because Tennessee participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact. Endorsement applicants should budget extra care for the Declaration of Citizenship: it requires a handwritten, notarized signature with supporting identity documentation—digital signatures are rejected, and the form is a common roadblock—have it notarized before you file. Our Tennessee Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.
What does the inpatient case mix look like for a travel nurse at Parkridge Medical Center?
Parkridge is a 275-bed hospital with emergency, cardiac, neurological, oncology, orthopedic, surgical, and rehabilitation services. Travelers may work with both general acute-care patients and specialty populations without the scale of a large academic center.
Which cardiac services may shape RN assignments at Parkridge?
Cardiac care includes catheterization, heart and vascular surgery, valve procedures, and a hybrid operating room for specialized cardiovascular treatment. Cardiac, ICU, OR, and step-down travelers may see patients before and after both catheter-based and open procedures.
What surgical and oncology populations are common at Parkridge?
The hospital performs general, colorectal, bariatric, gynecologic, orthopedic, and neurosurgical procedures and has an on-campus Sarah Cannon cancer program. Surgical and oncology travelers may care for patients across procedural, postoperative, and treatment settings.

Explore Chattanooga, TN
Mountains box in Chattanooga, TN on three sides, and the Tennessee River bends through the middle, giving the city a setting few markets match and a hospital base that serves the surrounding tri-state region. Travel demand runs across intensive care units and emergency departments. The revitalized riverfront and downtown put walkable housing within reach of several campuses, while the North Shore adds a restaurant-row neighborhood across the pedestrian bridge. The rents have climbed with the city's reputation but still undercut the big southeastern metros. Lookout Mountain rises straight from the city's edge with Ruby Falls inside it. Trail systems lace the ridges, which is exactly why outdoor-minded RNs tend to extend their contracts here more often here than in nearly any market of comparable size.
