View all jobs available at this facility.

Many say that San Mateo County is San Francisco’s best neighbor, which could be why it’s becoming a popular choice for travel nurses to find an assignment here. Stretching from the Pacific Coast to the beaches of San Francisco, this area is quieter and a bit more serene. Although the City-by-the-Bay is located less than 20 miles to the north, San Mateo is also a crossroads for San Jose to the south and the East Bay to the east.

Travel nurses who take an assignment in any of the cities here in San Mateo County will find peaceful stretches to walk amid wetlands and beaches dotted with egrets, pelicans and great blue herons. Of course, they’ll also enjoy the cosmopolitan side of life as well… with bustling streets lined with stores featuring the latest fashions, designer home furnishings, handcrafted gifts and first-class restaurants.

Overall, all the cities in the area come together to form much more of a community than a “county.” With this type of warmth and pride of ownership, it’s only fitting that Mills-Peninsula Health Services makes its home here as well.

Since 1908, Mills-Peninsula has been serving the Peninsula and Bay Area communities through their two campuses in San Mateo and Burlingame. Peninsula Medical Center in Burlingame provides acute medical and surgical care, and Mills Health Center in San Mateo primarily offers outpatient services. Mills-Peninsula is a member of the Sutter Health family, one of the largest Integrated Delivery Networks in the U.S.

At Mills-Peninsula, travel nurses will come to learn that a fundamental mission guides the staff and they act from a series of values that include honesty and integrity in all that they do. They are dedicated to preserving and improving the health of San Mateo County residents. They deliver excellent service and care with compassion and respect. By providing education for disease prevention and management, they also empower people to take a greater role in their own health and wellness.

Mills-Peninsula is also in the process of building a brand new medical center, which is slated to open its doors in 2010. In this new facility, travel nurses on assignment here will find a healthy environment inside and out. Designed and built using the latest earth-friendly techniques and recycled materials, from low-toxicity rubber floor tiles to café cabinets made of renewable resources such as bamboo, the 450,000-square-foot facility will contribute to the community’s health through both services and setting.

People treated at the new Medical Center will find many patient-centered features designed to speed healing and promote comfort, from private rooms for the hospital’s 243 beds to healing gardens and walking trails. Electronic patient charting, internet-based communications systems and telemetry-monitoring capability reflect Mills-Peninsula’s 21st-century commitment to providing cutting-edge medical technology and expertise to the community.

Until the new center opens, travel nurses will still enjoy working at state-of-the-art facilities that are recognized for their clinical excellence in both overall quality and specific treatment areas by HealthGrades, the nation’s leading healthcare ratings company.

Travel nurses looking to be in the Bay Area will surely find themselves pleasantly surprised by an assignment in the lesser known but equally attractive San Mateo County.
