Job Description
Job DescriptionEmbark on a rewarding journey as a Registered Nurse in Med Surg, Lawton, Oklahoma, where every shift is an opportunity to impact lives, advance your clinical skills, and grow within a supportive, patient-centered community. In this role, you’ll deliver high-quality medical-surgical care to adults with a variety of acuity levels, guiding them through recovery, managing complex needs, and leading discharge planning with compassion and clarity. You’ll collaborate with a dynamic team of physicians, therapists, and support staff to ensure timely interventions, accurate documentation, and continuity of care. This assignment is designed for nurses who thrive on variety, clinical problem-solving, and the satisfaction that comes from making a tangible difference in patients’ journey to wellness. Beyond the hospital walls, Oklahoma offers a tapestry of experiences—from expansive skies to tranquil landscapes—that invite you to recharge, reflect, and reconnect with what drew you to nursing in the first place.
Lawton is a welcoming hub with a strong sense of community and a commitment to professional excellence. Working in this location means access to modern facilities, supportive leadership, and opportunities to expand your critical-care competencies within a Med Surg setting. You’ll enjoy a city that blends small-town warmth with convenient access to outdoor escapes and cultural offerings. Beautiful places in Oklahoma abound near Lawton: the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge invites hiking among rugged granite peaks and wildlife sightings; Lake Lawtonka and nearby water bodies offer scenic recreation and peaceful weekends; Fort Sill’s storied history adds depth to local culture; and vibrant day trips to nearby towns provide enriching getaways. For travel expansions in the future, there’s the flexibility to experience diverse locations across the U.S., broadening your clinical perspective while maintaining the stability of a trusted support network.
Role specifics and benefits come together to create a compelling opportunity. You’ll perform comprehensive patient assessments, monitor clinical changes, administer medications and IV therapies, manage wounds, implement evidence-based care plans, and coordinate with multidisciplinary teams to optimize outcomes. You’ll provide patient and family education, reinforce safety protocols, and contribute to seamless transitions from hospital to home or other levels of care. The position supports ongoing professional growth through clinical escalation pathways, mentorship from experienced Med Surg colleagues, and access to certifications or specialty training that align with your career goals. In addition to competitive compensation, you’ll benefit from a sign-on style incentive, housing assistance to ease relocation, and potential extension opportunities that let you deepen your experience with the same team or explore adjacent specialties. While this is a travel-backed role, you’ll receive consistent weekly pay in the range of $1,649 to $1,680, with the understanding that hours are not guaranteed and will be based on assignment needs. You’ll also have access to a dedicated travel concierge, robust back-office support, and 24/7 assistance from a dedicated team as you navigate assignments and logistics away from home.
Our company’s values center on empowering nurses to carve meaningful career paths while fostering a supportive, respectful work environment. We recognize the expertise you bring and are committed to advancing your professional journey through leadership development, preceptorship opportunities, and a culture of continuous learning. You’ll find colleagues who value collaboration, integrity, and patient-centered care, with resources and programs designed to help you grow—from clinical coaching to flexible scheduling that respects work-life balance. The emphasis on safety, quality improvement, and staff wellbeing creates a workplace where your contributions are seen, celebrated, and built upon for the future.
If you’re ready to embark on a dynamic journey that combines excellent clinical practice, vibrant locations, and a pathway to growth, we invite you to apply. This is your chance to join a company that values your expertise, supports your development, and stands beside you as you deliver compassionate care across diverse settings. Start date is 01/12/2026, with a Weeks-long assignment in Lawton, Oklahoma, and the possibility to explore additional locations across the U.S. as you extend your journey.
