Join an exceptional surgical services team as an OR Circulating Registered Nurse with PACU responsibilities and make every procedure safer, smoother, and more compassionate! 🏥
The Operating Room Circulator will join a respected nonprofit healthcare organization known for high-quality patient care, strong safety achievements, and meaningful community service. This independent hospital invests in modern surgical technology, advanced perioperative monitoring, electronic medical records, and ongoing clinical improvements. A patient-first culture supports professional development, continuing education, and opportunities to expand perioperative nursing expertise. The organization remains deeply committed to rural health through community outreach, wellness initiatives, and accessible medical services. The Operating Room Circulator will find a collaborative workplace where clinical excellence and compassionate care are celebrated. 🌟
The Perioperative Circulating Nurse will practice in a welcoming small community hospital that provides personalized care across the perioperative continuum. Surgical services include preoperative assessment, intraoperative circulating duties, post-anesthesia recovery, and discharge education. The intimate hospital setting allows the Perioperative Circulating Nurse to build strong relationships with patients, families, surgeons, and colleagues. Two Modern operating rooms and PACU resources support safe, efficient procedures while preserving the close-knit atmosphere of community healthcare. This position requires an accredited nursing degree, an active Registered Nurse license, and current BLS, ACLS, and PALS certifications, while CNOR and prior OR or PACU experience are preferred.
The Surgical Services RN will report to the OR RN Supervisor and receive support from friendly nurses, surgeons, anesthesia providers, surgical technologists, and a diverse team of healthcare professionals. Responsibilities include completing preoperative assessments, verifying consent and surgical sites, coordinating time-outs, monitoring sterile technique, managing specimens and implants, supporting safe positioning, and maintaining accurate clinical documentation. PACU responsibilities include monitoring airway and vital signs, managing pain and nausea, recognizing postoperative complications, providing education, and evaluating discharge readiness. The Surgical Services RN will also participate in emergency response, quality improvement, and assigned night, weekend, and holiday call coverage.
The OR Circulating RN will enjoy a peaceful rural New England region surrounded by scenic mountains, forests, rivers, and charming small communities. Four-season recreation includes hiking, skiing, snowshoeing, fishing, kayaking, cycling, and spectacular fall foliage. Nearby cultural attractions, live concerts, community festivals, farmers markets, and locally inspired cuisine create an engaging lifestyle beyond the hospital. The OR Circulating RN can experience fresh air, manageable commutes, welcoming neighbors, and a relaxed pace while remaining within reach of larger regional destinations.
