Travel Nursing Jobs
If you’re a registered nurse who dreams of blending your career with your love for travel, then the role of a travel nurse presents an outstanding opportunity and could be a great career path for you.
Travel nursing offers alluring perks, encompassing the freedom to choose your work environment, the specific nursing area you’re passionate about, and the exciting prospect of exploring new areas.
Should You Start Travel Nursing?
Embarking on a career as a travel nurse offers a unique blend of professional advancement and personal enrichment. Beyond the allure of exploring new places and immersing yourself in diverse healthcare environments, travel nursing provides an opportunity for unparalleled growth.
This journey promises to hone your adaptability, foster your ability to excel in different specialties, and cultivate a network of colleagues across the healthcare spectrum. The financial rewards , including competitive compensation, housing allowances, and travel benefits, are complemented by the intangible rewards of cultural enrichment and the satisfaction of contributing meaningfully to patient care in various locales.
Ultimately, becoming a travel nurse is a chance to not only elevate your nursing career but also embark on a fulfilling adventure that nurtures both your skills and your spirit.
How to Find “Your Why”
From one travel nurse to another – it’s imperative to determine why “YOU” want to become a travel nurse.
- Do you want to see new cities, experience new cultures, and explore the country?
- Are you interested in the salary potential to pay off debt or reach your financial goals quicker?
- Are you trying to build your resume by gaining new skills and working at some state-of-the-art healthcare facilities?
- Do you want more flexibility within your career plus the ability to take time off in between contracts?
Determining “your why” and keeping it close to your heart will help you be successful in your endeavors and will be your driving force if times get tough! Transitioning into the world of travel nursing entails a few essential steps to initiate your exciting journey. There are many career paths you can take if travel nursing is your priority. Begin by understanding your personal motivations for choosing this path.
Career Path to Finding a Travel Nurse Job
Once you’re clear on your goals, ensure that you meet all the necessary prerequisites, including holding an active nursing license and relevant certifications. You will minimally need an Associate Degree in Nursing, and some facilities may require a Bachelor’s Degree.
You’ll need to make sure that you’ve gained the experience required to become a travel nurse. Usually, a minimum of 1-2 years of experience is required in the desired specialty you want to travel in, but it can vary by specialty and facility.
You should be confident in your nursing and critical thinking skills because, as a travel nurse, you will need to hit the ground running with very little orientation. Trust me when I tell you this – take the time you need to get comfortable taking the sickest patient on your unit with little help before taking the leap into travel nursing.
How to Work With a Recruiter to Find Travel Nursing Jobs
After obtaining the experience, you will research and select reputable travel nursing agencies that align with your preferences and needs. Your relationship with your recruiter is super important, and they can make or break your entire experience. Communication is key with your recruiter, and it’s a two way street.
You want to make sure to communicate your list of must-haves and deal breakers so they can best assist you in landing your dream assignment. I highly encourage you to be as flexible as you can, especially as a new travel nurse.
I recommend considering your licenses early on in the process if you want to travel to another state, as they can take some time, and you may be required to have the license in hand before an agency can submit you for a job.
Compile your essential documents, such as licenses, certifications, and a polished resume with two recent references. Proceed to submit applications through your chosen agency, which will then help match you with suitable assignments. As potential offers come in, be prepared for a phone call at any time.
Time is of the essence when it comes to travel nursing jobs, so try to be available to pick up the phone, or the hiring manager may bypass you and move onto the next candidate.
Next will come your contract, which is the most important legal document you will sign throughout the entire process. Make sure you take the time to read over and make sure you fully understand it BEFORE signing. If there is anything you don’t understand, ask your recruiter to explain or seek legal counsel to explain more if needed.
As you prepare to embark on your travel nurse journey, consider housing arrangements, pack your essentials, and maintain organization throughout the process. With each step, you’ll be closer to embracing new experiences, enriching your career, and making a positive impact as a travel nurse.

How Long is a Travel Nurse Assignment?
Travel nursing contracts can vary in duration, typically ranging from 8 to 26 weeks, although 13 weeks is most common and are based on the facility’s needs.

Top Travel Nurse Locations & Salary
The demand for travel nurses across the United States remains persistent, driven by a multitude of factors. Travel nursing operates on the principles of supply and demand.
Metropolitan hubs like New York City and Los Angeles grapple with constant surges in patient numbers and seasonal fluctuations, necessitating the recruitment of additional nursing staff to ensure top-tier healthcare delivery.
In contrast, rural regions, spanning parts of the Midwest and mountainous terrains, confront a dearth of healthcare professionals, making travel nurses indispensable for delivering essential services to underserved communities.
Furthermore, popular tourist destinations such as Florida and Hawaii experience a surge in patient admissions during peak seasons. Travel nurses are instrumental in providing the necessary staffing to meet these heightened healthcare demands. They play a pivotal role in mitigating geographical disparities in healthcare resources and upholding consistent and proficient care for patients regardless of their location.
Compensation for travel nurses fluctuates significantly, contingent on factors like location, specialization, experience, and the chosen agency. On an average scale, travel nurses earn weekly wages ranging from $1,510 to $2,865, with seasoned professionals having the potential to surpass $3,000 weekly, as indicated by Ziprecruiter.com. While the pandemic and nursing shortages led to temporary wage spikes due to elevated demand, these exceptional rates are not expected to remain sustained.

Travel Nursing Jobs FAQ
Travel nurse jobs offer RNs a fantastic chance to simultaneously enhance their nursing careers and embark on exciting journeys while engaging with diverse individuals. However, for those new to this experience, questions are likely to arise. Below, we address some of the frequently asked questions to provide clarity and guidance.
Do I Need to Be Licensed in Each State I Work?
Yes, each state requires its own licensing. The good news is that most travel nursing agencies help you obtain the required license before your start date. Processing time can take up to 8 weeks (California has one of the longest wait times), so it’s important not to wait. Pro tip: Make this a priority so a licensure issue does not hold you up from obtaining your dream job.
Additionally, a nursing compact state , also known as a Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) state, is a concept in the United States where registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical/vocational nurses (LPN/VNs) can hold a single license that allows them to practice in multiple states. The NLC is an agreement between participating states that allows nurses to provide care across state lines without obtaining additional licenses. This streamlined process benefits both nurses and patients by facilitating access to care in different regions without the need for redundant licensing procedures. It’s important to note that not all states are part of the NLC, so nurses need to be aware of the states that recognize their compact license before practicing in them.
Are There Extra Educational Requirements to Become a Travel Nurse?
The educational prerequisites for a travel RN are the same as those for a conventional nurse — no extra schooling or certification is required for traveling. The primary distinction lies in the level of experience required. To become a travel nurse, you will minimally need to obtain 1-2 years of experience in your specialty, and some facilities may have additional requirements. Each state has their own continuing education requirements to maintain licensure, which can be found on the specific state board’s website.
Am I Signing A Long-Term Contract When I Sign With a Travel Nurse Company?
No, contracts typically span from 8 to 26 weeks. Once this period concludes, you possess the freedom to opt for another assignment with your current travel nursing agency or explore opportunities with a different agency. Extending your existing contract could also be a viable option if the facility has a need and it’s a good fit for all parties.
Will I Receive Medical and Dental Benefits as a Travel RN?
Yes, as a travel nurse, you can typically expect to receive medical and dental benefits as part of your compensation package. Travel nursing agencies understand the importance of offering comprehensive benefits to attract and retain skilled healthcare professionals. These benefits often include health insurance coverage, which encompasses medical and dental care.
While specific details can vary based on the agency and assignment, these packages are designed to provide you with essential healthcare coverage during your time as a travel nurse. This ensures that you can focus on your work and exploration without worrying about your well-being or access to medical services.
It’s recommended to discuss the details of the benefits package with your chosen travel nursing agency to ensure you have a clear understanding of the coverage provided . The majority of companies provide benefits. Each travel nurse company presents varying benefits encompassing retirement plans, dental and medical coverage, and housing assistance. It’s advisable to research multiple agencies as their benefits and resources can vary.
Is Travel Nursing a Stable Career Choice?
Registered nursing, in general, is projected to have a strong job outlook in the coming years due to the increasing demand for healthcare services. This demand is driven by factors such as an aging population, advancements in medical technology, and healthcare policy changes.
As travel nurses are skilled and flexible professionals who fill staffing gaps in various healthcare facilities, their expertise remains in demand, contributing to the overall stability of the nursing profession. After the COVID-19 pandemic, nurses have continued to leave the bedside at an exponential rate creating a further deficit.
It’s important to note that while the nursing field is generally stable, travel nursing does involve moving between assignments and adapting to different environments, which may not appeal to everyone. The stability of a travel nursing career can depend on factors like your experience, the demand for travel nurses in your chosen specialties, and your willingness to be flexible in terms of location and assignments. If you’re considering a career in travel nursing, it’s advisable to research the job market in your desired specialties and seek advice from professionals in the field.
Do a Lot of Nurses Travel?
In recent years, a growing number of nurses have embraced the opportunity to travel as part of their careers. Travel nursing has gained popularity as a dynamic and flexible option for healthcare professionals seeking new experiences.
Many nurses are drawn to the chance of working in diverse healthcare settings across various locations, from bustling urban hospitals to tranquil rural clinics. This trend has been fueled by the benefits of competitive pay, comprehensive benefits packages, and the chance to explore different parts of the country while honing their skills. Travel nurses often enjoy the chance to collaborate with a variety of medical teams, broaden their clinical expertise, and immerse themselves in different healthcare cultures. As a result, the field of travel nursing has become an appealing pathway for those seeking adventure, professional growth, and a unique blend of healthcare and exploration.
According to Timothy Landhuis, vice president of research at Staffing Industry Analysts, there were approximately 50,000 US travel nurses pre-pandemic — approximately 1.5% of the country’s registered nurses. That pool doubled to at least 100,000 as COVID spread. It’s estimated by American Traveler that between 4.4% and 13.7% of nurses work outside their home state.
How Quickly Can I Start a Travel Nurse Job?
Starting a travel nurse job can be a relatively swift process, typically taking a few weeks to a couple of months. The exact timeline can vary based on factors such as your current licensing and certifications, the destination of your assignment, and the specific requirements of the healthcare facility you’ll be joining. Generally, these are the steps involved:
- Researching and choosing a travel nurse agency that aligns with your preferences
- Submitting your application and necessary documentation, such as licenses, certifications, and references
- Undergoing a skills assessment
- Selecting an assignment from the options presented to you
Once you’ve accepted an assignment, the agency will work with you to handle the logistics of housing, transportation, and any additional training required. With the support of the travel nurse agency, you can smoothly navigate these steps and embark on your new adventure as a travel nurse.
For those registered nurses who aspire to infuse their profession with their passion for travel, the realm of travel nursing emerges as an unparalleled opportunity. With its enticing advantages, which include the autonomy to select your preferred work settings and nursing specialties, along with the thrilling prospect of discovering new locales, travel nursing beckons as an exciting and fulfilling avenue to pursue.
Embarking on a journey into travel nursing requires a few key considerations to ensure a smooth and successful transition. Firstly, researching reputable travel nursing agencies is crucial. These agencies will serve as your main point of contact and will assist you in finding suitable assignments, handling logistics, and providing support throughout your journey.
Understanding the licensing requirements for the states you wish to work in is essential, and obtaining the necessary licenses can take some time. Additionally, having a flexible and adaptable mindset is beneficial, as travel nurses often need to acclimate quickly to new environments and healthcare settings.
Strong communication skills are vital for collaborating with diverse medical teams, and being open to learning from each experience can enhance your professional growth. As you begin your travel nursing career, staying organized with your documents and certifications will help streamline the onboarding process for new assignments. Overall, being well-prepared and receptive to new challenges will allow you to embrace the rewarding world of travel nursing fully. Happy Travels!

Are you interested in starting your career as a travel nurse ? At Prolink, we have compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions by travel nurses at the beginning of their careers.
What are the qualifications to become a travel nurse?
To become a travel nurse, you must first be a registered nurse (RN). That means completing a nurse training program, passing the NCLEX-RN exam, and getting your license.
Most nurse staffing agencies also require a minimum amount of work experience, so you will likely have to spend a couple of years working as an RN in a healthcare facility.
Do you need a BSN to start a travel nursing career?
While an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) is the minimum degree required to become a travel nurse, many employers prefer that you hold a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN).
What characteristics does a successful travel nurse have?
Travel nursing is best suited for people who can quickly adapt to new settings and situations. You must be a quick thinker since no two assignments will be the same, and you’ll need to keep up with healthcare’s fast pace.
It’s also important that you have the attitude of a lifelong learner. Each facility in which you work may have different ways of performing procedures or keeping records, and you need to learn and adjust. You must have excellent communication skills, too, and be a team player.
What medical facilities regularly need travel nurses?
Nursing shortages have affected medical facilities around the country, including hospitals, clinics, outpatient surgery centers, labs, oncology centers, and many more.
What do travel nursing employers look for on your resume?
Travel nursing employers look to ensure you have a valid license in the state in which you want to work and that you have a good amount of work experience. Depending on the agency or employer, they may also want to see that you have a BSN degree.
How do you obtain a license for an out-of-state assignment?
Before you can begin travel nursing, you need to obtain a registered nurse (RN) license valid in your state. After obtaining your license, you are ready to work with a staffing agency to find a job that fits your needs and wants in the state in which you’re licensed. If you want to work in another state, however, you will need further licensing.
One of your options is to get a compact license. A compact license is a multi-state license for states that have joined the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC), which helps travel nurses jump from state to state without applying for new licensure.
Currently, 41 states have joined the NLC, with more being added all the time. Your recruiter can point you in the right direction when applying for and obtaining a new license. In some cases, licenses can be expedited to allow you to start working quickly in the new contracted role.
Can you choose where to go as a travel nurse?
Yes. When you become a travel nurse, you get to pick the state, medical facility, and medical care setting in which you want to work.
What is the typical duration of a travel nurse assignment?
The typical duration for a travel nursing assignment is 13 weeks. You also may have the option of extending your contract in some cases.
What should you expect on your first day?
Your travel nursing agency recruiter will provide you with instructions regarding your first day on the job. They will tell you everything you need to know, like where to park, if there are costs associated with parking, if there is a dress code, and who to report to, among other important information.
Can you take time off between assignments?
Yes. That is one of the most crucial benefits of being a travel nurse since you don’t have to juggle work schedules when planning a vacation or family visits. You have total freedom over how often and how long you wish to work as a travel nurse. You are free to take weeks off to enjoy life between assignments. You can then come back when you are fully rested.
How many hours do travel nurses typically work per week?
Generally, travel nurses can expect to work around 40 hours a week. The exact setting can impact the kind of shifts you receive, with acute care settings often requiring three 12-hour shifts per week, for example.
What is the average salary of a travel nurse?
Your salary will depend greatly on the type of assignment and its location, but the average annual salary is $101,132 . You can expect different benefits from what a registered nurse would receive. Some of the additional benefits include housing and travel stipends.
Keep in mind that not every state pays the same rates. You may work an identical number of hours and take home diverse amounts, so you need to take that into consideration when deciding on assignments.
Double-time and overtime may be available, but you have to negotiate for them in each contract.
Do travel nurses get benefits and retirement?
When you initially sign on with a travel nurse staffing agency, your recruiter will inform you of all the benefits you qualify for. At Prolink, we offer health, vision, and dental insurance, as well as retirement planning via a 401k.
Travel nurses are also reimbursed for travel expenses such as public transportation, meals, and lodging up to a certain maximum. Because every agency is different, make sure you get all the details in writing, including your bill rate and how your benefits affect your base pay.
Do you have to travel alone as a travel nurse?
Absolutely not! You can bring a companion, family members, or even your pet with you on assignment. You may have to pay for an extra bedroom and/or a pet deposit. But, it is common for travel nurses to visit a new locale on assignment with a spouse, children, a friend, or a pet.
How long does it take to find your first travel nurse job?
Many travel nursing agencies offer online applications. Once you complete your application, your recruiter will begin searching for assignments that match your experience, skills, and specialty and the locations where you want to travel.
When a job becomes available, your recruiter will reach out and present the job to you. The process can vary, but you’ll likely have a video or phone interview. If you pass the interview, you’ll receive a job offer. The process can take as little as a few weeks for you to start working on your very first travel nursing assignment.
Do travel nurse agencies offer continuing education?
Some agencies offer continuing education courses to travel nurses on assignment. Ask your agency recruiter for details.
What should be in your travel nurse contract?
Your contract needs to include all the details related to the job, including the hours you will work, the location, and any specifics about the setting in which you’ll work. It also needs to contain a clear breakdown of your compensation. The contract must tell you your hourly rate as well as overtime and clearly state the stipends you will receive.
The contract should address what you can expect from time-off requests and the medical benefits you will have. You should also have clear information on what happens if you miss a shift.
Do travel nurses pay for their own housing?
When you work with Prolink, you will receive a housing stipend to secure your accommodations. Keep in mind that you will need to have a permanent residence for tax purposes to avoid having to pay taxes on these stipends.
To establish a permanent residence for tax purposes, you need to show the IRS that you have a residence where you pay property taxes, a mortgage or rent, and other living expenses. You need to stay at your permanent residence for a minimum of 30 days every year.
Do travel nurses pay their travel expenses?
Many travel agencies offer travel reimbursements on your first assignment based on the miles you traveled. Subsequently, you can get reimbursements if you travel 50 miles beyond your permanent residence. This doesn’t mean you can’t take jobs close to home as a travel nurse. It just means you won’t be reimbursed for the travel.
You’ll need to know when the reimbursement will take place and whether there are any restrictions. Always save receipts related to your travel. Don’t just keep train tickets and airplane stubs, either, but also save receipts for meals as you travel.
Most, if not all, of these reimbursements should be tax-free, so you don’t have to worry about paying taxes on the money you get back. Always check your contract for information on what will be taxed so there are no surprises.
What should you do about mail when traveling to an assignment?
Travel nurses have options for how to handle mail while on assignment. You can forward your mail each time you travel to a new area, maintain a permanent address at a family member’s or friend’s house and have your mail forwarded there, or rent a private post office box.
How do you handle banking when traveling?
Most travel nursing agencies provide direct deposit, allowing you to use your current bank.
Are travel nurses in demand?
Yes. Nursing positions and travel nursing assignments are available nationwide.
Do you still have questions?
We can help you get the answers you need. Contact Prolink to learn more about what we offer and how you can get started as a travel nurse.
