    Job Description

    Passport Health
    Registered Nurse – Travel Medicine
     
    Passport Health is North America’s largest travel medicine and immunization provider, with 300+ clinics across the U.S. and Canada. We’re looking for experienced Registered Nurses who are ready to step away from the pace and pressure of traditional healthcare settings and into a role centered around autonomy, specialized clinical expertise, and meaningful one-on-one patient care.
     
    Travel medicine allows you to use your nursing skills in a different way — helping clients prepare safely for international travel while building expertise in vaccines, global health risks, and preventative care.
     
    What Makes This Role Different
    Most of our nurses work independently in a clinic setting — no charge nurse responsibilities, no hospital-style task overload, and no constant competing priorities. You’ll manage your clinic day by focusing on your clients, providing education, administering vaccines, and delivering an exceptional patient experience.
    You’ll have the support of a dedicated clinical leadership team, but your day-to-day practice is built around your clinical judgment and independence.
     
    Travel medicine is a true specialty. You’ll develop knowledge in areas many nurses never experience, including:
    • Vaccine-preventable diseases
    • International health risks
    • Destination-specific travel recommendations
    • Preventative health planning
    • Patient education and consultation
    • Every appointment is a conversation — not just another task to complete.
    Current Opening Details
    • Location: Burbank, CA
    • Employment Type: Part-Time (PT)
    • Schedule: Approximately 24 hours/week
    • Compensation: Starting at $48.00/hour
    • Schedule Requirements: Monday–Friday clinic availability with Participation in a Saturday rotation required
    • Availability on Mondays and Fridays is required as part of the regular schedule
    What You’ll Do
    • Conduct comprehensive travel health consultations and educate clients on destination-specific health risks
    • Review travel plans and provide individualized vaccine and medication recommendations
    • Administer vaccines according to standing orders and monitor clients for adverse reactions
    • Recommend travel health products and medications when clinically appropriate
    • Manage clinic operations including inventory, documentation, and safety compliance
    • Support onsite corporate wellness and vaccination events as needed
    • Complete ongoing travel medicine training — we invest in keeping your clinical knowledge current
    Scheduling — The Honest Picture
    Passport Health uses a census-based scheduling model similar to many outpatient healthcare settings. We want nurses to understand the balance of this role: more flexibility and autonomy, with some variability based on patient demand.
     
    Here’s what that looks like:
    • Hours are based on client demand, which can vary by location and season
    • We build schedules with a focus on consistency and forward planning, typically looking 6–12 months ahead
    • Hours are not guaranteed in every market, but we work to create predictable schedules whenever possible
    • Nurses provide availability within defined scheduling windows to support long-term planning
    • Flexibility with preferred days/times, weekend coverage, or supporting multiple nearby clinics may increase scheduling opportunities
    • Peak travel season (typically February–August) generally brings increased and more consistent patient volume
    • The nurses who thrive at Passport Health value independence, flexibility, and the ability to balance meaningful patient care with their personal lives.
    What You Need to Succeed
    • Active RN license in good standing
    • Compact (multistate) RN license accepted — you must legally reside in the state where you are licensed and providing care
    • 3+ years of clinical nursing experience (travel medicine experience is a plus, but not required)
    • Comfortable working independently in a clinic environment
    • Strong patient education and communication skills
    • Reliable access to a personal computer (training platforms require a desktop or laptop)
    • Experience using Google Workspace (Gmail, Drive, Docs, Meet)
    • Current First Aid/CPR certification
    • Ability to lift and transport vaccine inventory as needed (up to 25 lbs)
    Ideal Candidates Are Nurses Who:
    • Enjoy patient education and building relationships
    • Want to use their nursing skills in a more consultative setting
    • Appreciate autonomy and independent decision-making
    • Are adaptable and comfortable balancing busy and slower clinic days
    • Are dependable and willing to support weekend coverage when scheduled
    • Want to continue learning and developing expertise in a specialty area
