Job Description

An experienced Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA) is needed for a locum tenens / PRN opportunity providing 24-hour in-house obstetric anesthesia coverage at a facility located near Chicago, Illinois. This position is designed for highly experienced CRNAs who are comfortable managing continuous OB coverage in an in-house setting and are seeking focused, short-term or ongoing locum assignments.

The role involves providing round-the-clock anesthesia services dedicated to obstetrics, requiring strong clinical judgment, independence, and the ability to respond quickly to emergent situations. This opportunity is best suited for CRNAs with extensive OB experience who prefer a defined scope of practice without elective OR responsibilities.

Malpractice coverage is provided, allowing providers to focus entirely on patient care without additional administrative burden. Candidates must be local to the Chicago area, as this role does not include travel or lodging support.

Experience Requirements
