In the Garden State of New Jersey

View all jobs available at this facility.

When the hustle and bustle of Manhattan gets too much, even for native New Yorkers, they head to the likes of Morristown and Summit, NJ. Located just a short train ride away from the big apple, this area boasts socially and ethnically diverse communities for residents and visitors alike. There’s little culture shock for the urban dwellers, yet the atmosphere and pace are much more accommodating. This is an ideal location for a travel nurse assignment — where else can you have the city and the small town rolled into one?

Morris County and Morristown are packed with history you probably never read about. In fact, during the Revolutionary War and down to today, Morristown has been known as The Military Capital of the American Revolution, as it played host during two winter encampments by General George Washington and the Continental Army. Of course, if it was good enough for our first President it only makes sense that one of the most renowned healthcare systems would make its home here.

Atlantic Health sits at the pinnacle of medicine, setting standards for quality healthcare in New Jersey and the entire New York metropolitan area. Renowned for its breadth of cardiac services, including bypass surgery, angioplasty, and implantable pacemakers, Morristown Memorial Hospital performs the second most heart surgeries in the New York metropolitan area. Overlook Hospital, the regional leader in comprehensive stroke care and neuroscience services, was the first hospital in the Northeast to utilize the revolutionary CyberKnife robotic, image-guided technology. Their nationally recognized medical doctors, experienced nurses and skilled staff provide outstanding and compassionate healthcare that will rival any of the more well-known medical centers in the U.S.

Morristown Memorial Hospital is a designated Magnet Hospital for Excellence in Nursing Service, another reason why this is an incredible assignment opportunity for travel nurses. Named a Level I Regional Trauma Center by the American College of Surgeons and a Level II by the state of New Jersey, this hospital offers superior care by their highly trained trauma teams. Their cardiac surgery center is the largest in the state, and the Gagnon Cardiovascular Institute is one of the top 100 hospitals in the nation for cardiovascular care. In addition, the Stroke Center at Morristown Memorial is the only accredited stroke trauma center in the region. Their Level III Regional Perinatal Center provides specialized care to sick or premature infants; and the Goryeb Children’s Hospital has more than 100 pediatric specialists dedicated to patients in a child-centered facility.
