Common questions

How much does a travel Cath Lab nurse make in District of Columbia?
The median advertised pay for a travel Cath Lab contract in District of Columbia is $2,973 a week, with the middle half of contracts between $2,973 and $2,973. Measured across 2 active travel Cath Lab contracts in District of Columbia at 1 facilities, as of 2026-10-31. These are advertised weekly totals before tax, usually including tax-free stipends; for almost all postings the figure is the top of an advertised range. Not take-home.
Where does this Cath Lab pay figure come from?
From the travel contracts currently posted on CircleRN, not from an industry survey or an estimate. No federal source publishes pay by nursing specialty: the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports registered nurses as a single occupation, so there is no official median for an ICU or a labor and delivery nurse. We publish the median rather than the average because one crisis-rate assignment moves an average enough to misrepresent the market.
