Our ED RNs support our Emergency Department settings across our MCHS hospitals in Minnesota and Wisconsin.

This position requires a commitment to patient safety/satisfaction as well as the ability to work collaboratively with a wide array of other healthcare professionals. Our MCHS EDs range from level I to level IV trauma centers, so the exact role that the Internal Travel Team ED RN performs from site to site can vary based on patient demand, resource availability, and facility practices.
