Introverted travel nurse prefers critical access hospitals.

Published

Specializes in Med/Surge, Psych, LTC, Home Health.

So I just started traveling after 19 years of being an RN.  Currently doing a contract in a fairly small but very busy regional hospital.  

I'm not here to make friends... But at the same time... I tend to be really quiet, especially around large groups of women.  The last hospital where I worked a permanent position, was a very small critical access hospital..  Very small group of employees.  I was much more comfortable in that environment and made some great friends.  

Im just venting because I miss having friends at work.  Im traveling because of the money, because I do tend to burn out easily, and just for the fun of seeing different places. 

I would love to stick to critical access hospitals.  Are there many out there that use travelers?  

Thanks! ?

Pretty much all hospitals do these days. With covid numbers not being what they were, contracts arent as plentiful is all.
