FAQs – PCU Travel Nurse Jobs Near Murfreesboro, TN

What certifications do travel PCU jobs require?
Most travel PCU jobs require Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS). Units that care for stroke patients often ask for NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS) as well. A Progressive Care Certified Nurse (PCCN) credential isn't usually required, but many facilities view it as a plus.
What do facilities require for travel PCU nurses?
Facilities typically want recent progressive care, step-down, or intermediate-care experience with continuous cardiac monitoring, higher-acuity patients, and infusions such as diltiazem, amiodarone, insulin, or heparin. Depending on the unit, post-cath, cardiac, respiratory, or postoperative experience may also matter.
Is PCU the same as step-down or intermediate care?
Often, but not always. PCU, step-down, IMC, and transitional-care labels can describe similar units, but acuity, patient mix, allowed drips, and respiratory support vary by hospital. Compare the actual responsibilities with your experience rather than relying on the unit name alone.
How does Ascension St. Thomas Rutherford serve travel nurses in Murfreesboro and Rutherford County?
As the county's leading hospital for about 95 years, Ascension St. Thomas Rutherford is a roughly 418-bed campus, recently expanded by 36 beds, offering travel nurses heart and vascular care, orthopedics, and intensive care.
What maternity and NICU care does Ascension St. Thomas Rutherford provide?
Its Birthing Center pairs a Level II NICU staffed around the clock by neonatologists with maternal-fetal medicine and a dedicated obstetric ER, so travel nurses handle higher-risk deliveries here.
Does St. Thomas Rutherford hold stroke and cardiac certifications?
Yes — a Joint Commission Primary Stroke Center and a Certified Chest Pain Center, with the most severe strokes routed to its Comprehensive Stroke sibling in Nashville.
