Graduating Nurse needs suggestions

Published

I am getting ready to start my preceptor in January. Man nursing school has went by fast :bugeyes:

I want to become a travel nurse but I am wanting to find out which areas of the industry have the most need for travel nurses.

So far I have liked ICU, ER and Ortho but I am not sure if those are areas that are in demand

Also if anyone has any advice on choosing agencies I would greatly appreciate it.

TIA!!

You do know that you're going to need a year or two (AT LEAST) of experience in whatever specialty you want to do travel nursing in, right? My apologies if you know that, I just couldn't tell from your post. :) Congratulations on finishing nursing school. No small achievement, that. :D

Yes, I know that I need at least a year but I am wondering which area would be the best to spend that first year.

Thanks again

Ok, sorry! I just couldn't tell from your post whether you knew or not. I don't know about other areas, but there are always openings for ICU/CCU travelers in my state (NC),
