they state that I may not accept an assignment there within the following twelve months after my contract ends without going THROUGH THEM. Is that a normal thing for travel nurse companies to do?
I know you're asking about travel nurse companies and I don't know about them but I do know that agency nurses are not allowed to take an assignment at a facility where they worked as an "agency RN" for 6 months (I think!) after leaving a particular agency.
I think the idea is for the agency to hold onto the nurse a little more in order that the nurses don't just up and leave for a regular job at a place where they were assigned as "agency" and really loved. KWIM?
HTH!
