LifeBridge Health is seeking an experienced OR Ortho Registered Nurse PRN to join our Healthcare & Medical Services team in our orthopedic surgical and post-surgical care environment. As a key member of a collaborative, patient-centered care team, you will provide specialized nursing care to adult orthopedic patients in a fast-paced acute care setting, supporting both pre- and post-operative needs and helping patients regain mobility and function after injury or surgery.

In this PRN role, you will deliver high-quality, evidence-based nursing care to patients undergoing orthopedic procedures, including joint replacements, fracture repairs, and other musculoskeletal surgeries. You will perform thorough nursing assessments, monitor vital signs and neurovascular status, manage pain effectively, and promptly respond to changes in patient condition. You will be responsible for administering medications, managing IV therapies, and providing meticulous care of casts, splints, traction devices, and surgical wounds while adhering to infection prevention and patient safety protocols.

You will collaborate closely with orthopedic surgeons, anesthesiologists, physical and occupational therapists, case managers, and other members of the interdisciplinary team to develop and implement individualized care plans. A key part of your role will be educating patients and their families about post-operative care, mobility and weight-bearing precautions, pain management strategies, equipment use, and discharge instructions, ensuring a smooth transition from hospital to home or rehabilitation settings. You will use electronic health records to document all assessments, interventions, and patient responses accurately and in a timely manner.

LifeBridge Health’s culture emphasizes collaboration, innovation, and community engagement, and you will be part of a team that is committed to compassionate patient care and continuous improvement in healthcare delivery. In this position, you will have the opportunity to expand your orthopedic nursing skills, participate in ongoing professional development and quality initiatives, and contribute to improved outcomes for a diverse patient population.

As an OR Ortho Registered Nurse PRN, you will work on an as-needed basis to support staffing needs, which may include days, evenings, nights, weekends, and holidays. This flexible role is ideal for an experienced RN who desires schedule flexibility while still practicing at a high level in a specialized orthopedic environment. By joining LifeBridge Health, you will be part of a regional healthcare organization in Maryland that offers a comprehensive continuum of care, career advancement opportunities, and the chance to make a meaningful impact on the health and well-being of the communities we serve.
