UnityPoint Health, Moline, IL, United States
Shift: PRN; Unit operates Monday–Saturday, Night Shift 6:45 PM – 7:15 AM.
Join our team in the Recovery Care Center (RCC), a 10-bed unit within our outpatient surgery program that cares for patients during the short overnight recovery period following scheduled surgical procedures. Patients recovering from surgeries such as joint replacements, spine procedures, mastectomies, thyroid surgeries, and urologic procedures typically stay one night before safely returning home.
Area of Interest: Nursing
Salary Range: $32.73-$49.09/HR*
FTE/Hours per pay period: 0.01
Department: Recovery Care Center- MO
Shift: 6:45 PM - 7:15 AM
Job ID: 173788
Overview
The RCC is designed as a short-stay surgical recovery unit rather than a traditional Med‑Surg floor. Because patients discharge quickly, we maintain lower nurse-to-patient ratios so nurses can focus on post‑operative monitoring, pain management, early mobility, and patient education to ensure a safe transition home.
This recovery‑focused model allows nurses to spend more meaningful time with patients while seeing their recovery and progress in a short period, working closely with surgical, anesthesia, and interdisciplinary teams to support a smooth recovery experience.
Benefits
Expect paid time off, parental leave, 401K matching and an employee recognition program.
Dental and health insurance, paid holidays, short and long‑term disability and more. We even offer pet insurance for your four‑legged family members.
Early access to earned wages with Daily Pay, tuition reimbursement to help further your career and adoption assistance to help you grow your family.
Responsibilities
Assess patient and family needs, develop individualized care plans collaboratively with the healthcare team, and provide education and referrals to ensure continuity of care.
Deliver high‑quality, holistic nursing care using the nursing process, critical thinking, and specialty‑specific clinical skills in accordance with policies, procedures, and standards of care.
Maintain accurate and timely documentation to ensure a complete and legally sound patient record.
Delegate tasks and provide direction to other healthcare providers, holding team members accountable for their role in patient care.
Promote patient and workplace safety by preventing errors, accidents, and infections, and promptly reporting potential or actual concerns.
Uphold regulatory and organizational compliance, maintain required licensure and certifications, and demonstrate UnityPoint Health values in daily practice.
Qualifications
Education
Diploma from an RN program.

Current licensure in good standing to practice as a Registered Nurse in primary state.
Must apply within 90 days for licensure in secondary state.
