Reinforce surgeon-provided postoperative education
Maintain accurate and timely nursing documentation
Complete an end-of-shift postoperative communication/handoff summary
Provide discreet, compassionate and highly attentive concierge-level care
Who We’re Looking For
Elevé nurses work independently in private recovery environments, so strong assessment skills, sound clinical judgment and confidence working without immediate bedside support are essential.
Candidates should be calm, professional, attentive and comfortable communicating directly with patients, families and surgical providers.
Requirements
Active, unrestricted Michigan RN license
Current BLS certification
Minimum 2 years of RN experience
Strong nursing assessment and medication-administration skills
Ability to recognize and appropriately escalate postoperative complications
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Ability to work independently
Reliable transportation

Preferred
Clinical Background Experience in PACU, plastic/cosmetic surgery, surgical services, ICU, emergency nursing, progressive/step-down care, ENT, postoperative nursing, or another acute-care specialty is strongly preferred.
Schedule & Case Availability
This is a PRN/per-diem position. Shifts are offered based on surgical case volume, and a minimum number of weekly or monthly hours is not guaranteed. Most assignments are approximately 12 hours and occur overnight following surgery.
Nurses receive case location and scheduling information before accepting an assignment.
Service Area & Travel
Most assignments are located throughout the Metro Detroit tri-county area, including Oakland, Wayne and Macomb counties. Occasional assignments may be available outside the primary service area. Extended-distance assignments will be discussed with the RN in advance, including any applicable travel or mileage compensation. Long-distance assignments are not required unless accepted by the RN.
Compensation
$50.00 per hour. Elevé is an excellent opportunity for experienced nurses who enjoy postoperative care but want something different from the traditional hospital environment: one patient, one nurse, focused postoperative care.
