Travel Nursing Jobs

I have been receiving many emails about being a travel nurse from the requirements to how to choose a trave nursing agency and my personal recommendations on which travel nursing agency to join.

All of these questions are good ones but there is no straight answer as it all comes down to the travel nursing company.

In general, the basic requirements are:

1. Having a diploma from an accredited health certified profesional program.

2. 18 months of full-time nursing experience in a hospital

When choosing a travel nursing agency/company you, you technically work for them and get benefits according to their requirements. So you want to look at one that provides full health insurance coverage, 401k and also see the perks they offer. So before you make your choice, make sure and talk to a few different agencies.

Of course not all travel nursing companies are the same. You have Aya Healthcare for example that sets the salary based on your experience and the job position.

So look around and find the best one for your needs.
