(Lead). Traveling ICU Nurse (RN) who struggles to assert herself. Sweet and non-confrontational, she has always followed her older sister Brooke's lead. After finding herself drawn to and encouraged by Henry, she more seriously considers what she wants her future to look like, even if it deviates from Brooke's plans to always be on the go. Carly is a capable professional and an idealistic people-pleaser who uses sarcasm as a social lubricant. She is grounded and task-oriented.

HenryMale26-34 y.o.All ethnicities

(Lead). ICU Pharmacist. Henry is witty, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. As a pharmacist working closely with ICU physicians, he's meticulous about his work but far more relaxed in his personal life. Kind-hearted and slightly awkward, Henry is immediately charmed by Carly's warmth. Unlike Brooke and Ellis, whose connection is fueled by conflict, Henry and Carly's relationship grows through encouragement and emotional honesty.

(Supporting). Traveling ICU Nurse. Kyle is outgoing, charismatic, and thrives on the social side of travel nursing. He quickly befriends coworkers and becomes a confidant for Brooke, offering insight into Ellis while also revealing pieces of his own complicated past.

DonnaFemale40-59 y.o.All ethnicities

RoseFemale18-24 y.o.All ethnicities

(Supporting). Ellis' younger sister. Rose is warm, enthusiastic, and emotionally intuitive. She has a bright, open energy that makes people feel immediately welcomed and seen. Having experienced loss alongside her brother, she carries a quiet emotional depth beneath her bubbly personality.

ThaddeusMale20-35 y.o.All ethnicities

(Supporting). He has the sturdy and wholesome look of a country boy with an approachable and clean appearance. As a nurse, he should look capable and healthy, possessing a natural and unpretentious charm that makes him feel immediately trustworthy.
