Travel nursing? have you done and what was your experience?


I am interested in exploring Travel Nursing and want to know if anyone has done so. What was your experience. Did you like it. The pros and cons to it?

I've been tempted to try travel assignments but never could get away to do them, but there's a very active Travel Nurse forum with lots of interaction between experienced travel nurses and those interested in doing it so your best bet would be to go read the posts there and ask any questions you may have about particular companies, assignments, pro's and con's etc.

From listening over there I do know there are some companies that are good and some that you need to avoid working for at all costs!

Good luck :)

The big advantages to travel nursing is that you have more control over your career and you can get out of the politics of being regular staff. I have doing it for quite a while and wouldn't go back to staff nursing! Report It
