PASSPORT HEALTH Flexible Schedule Registered Nurse – Travel Medicine Choose Your Days | Grover Beach, CA

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 RNs who want a role built around autonomy, specialized expertise, and genuine one-on-one patient connection, with a schedule that fits around the rest of your life.

Current Opening Details

• Location(s): Grover Beach, CA 93433
• Employment Type: Part-Time (PT), flexible schedule
• Compensation: Starting at $60.00/hr
• Training Period: First month, 3 weekdays per week (see Training & Onboarding below)
• Weekly Hours & Schedule (after training): Flexible PRN-style schedule based on your availability
• Minimum Availability: At least 1 day per week (8-hour shifts)
• Additional Hours: The more availability you offer, the more hours we can schedule
• Saturdays: Saturday availability is a plus, not required

Who This Is Great For

• Nurses who want part-time or per-diem flexibility without giving up meaningful clinical work
• Nurses with another job, school, or family commitments who can commit one day or more each week
• Nurses ready to step out of high-pressure hospital settings into a specialty

What Makes This Role Different

Most of our nurses work independently: no charge nurse, no team overhead, no endless task lists. You manage your day by seeing your clients and giving them the best experience possible. You'll be supported by a network of clinical leadership, but the day-to-day is yours.

Travel medicine is a specialty. You'll develop deep expertise in vaccine-preventable diseases, international health risks, and pre-travel health planning, knowledge most nurses never get to build. Every client interaction is a true consultation, not a check-the-box encounter.

What You'll Do

• Conduct in-depth travel health consultations and educate clients on destination-specific risks
• Administer vaccines per standing orders and monitor for adverse reactions
• Recommend and promote travel health products and medications as clinically appropriate
• Manage clinic setup, inventory, and compliance with safety and documentation protocols
• Support onsite corporate wellness or vaccine clinic events as needed
• Complete ongoing travel medicine training. We invest in keeping your clinical knowledge current.

Training & Onboarding

• Your first month is a paid training period so you're confident and ready to see clients on your own.
• Training is 3 weekdays per week for approximately 4 weeks. Please confirm you can commit to this before applying.
• After training, you move to your flexible schedule with a minimum of 1 day per week.
• Training days are set in advance, and we'll work with you to schedule around them.

How Scheduling Works

Passport Health uses a census-based scheduling model, so hours follow client demand.

Here’s what that means for you:

• You share your availability, and we schedule within it. Days are assigned based on clinic needs and the availability you give us.
• We build schedules that offer 6–12 months of consistency, so you can plan ahead.
• Hours aren't guaranteed in every market and can vary by season.
• Peak travel season (typically February–August) brings higher, more stable volume.
• Extra availability, such as additional days, weekends, or covering another location, can increase your hours.

What You Need To Succeed

• Active California RN license in good standing, or willing to hire an experience LVN.
• 3+ years of clinical nursing experience (travel medicine background a plus, not required)
• Comfortable working independently. You won't always have backup in the clinic.
• Strong patient communication and education skills
• Reliable access to a personal computer (training systems require desktop or laptop)
• Proficiency with Google Suite (Gmail, Drive, Docs, Meet)
• Current First Aid/CPR certification
• Ability to lift and transport vaccine inventory as needed (up to 25 lbs)
