I currently work at Tuba City Hospital and started Nov 2015. I also came through a recruitment agency who promised the same perks for coming here. I work in ICU and have worked as a travel nurse. The health insurance is NOT free. You pay for insuranc...

Ok so I am at my second travel assignment and have a contract at a facility and have been working there for 6 out of 13 weeks. I received a phone call from my agency that the facility has cancelled my contract due to low census. The agency I work for...

Shorter assignments would be more challenging as a traveler it takes a few weeks just to get settled and then to pack up and leave and start over would be even more challenging. You may need to rethink your strategy. I find as a traveler you end up u...

My contract only mentions the repracussions if I cancel not THEY or the Facility

It is best to pick 2 or three companies to travel with for more opportunities. I have worked for RNNetwork and Supplemental Health. Both are very good to me and I just go with what openings are available and pick the one that I want. It also offers y...

I am working on beginning my travel career and am torn on whether to keep an unoccupied apt where I currently live and continue to pay for this while I travel or to just put my stuff in storage and not worry about when and for how long I need to come...

Hang in there you can do it!! I am a new grad nurse med/surg/tele floor for 90 days. I have a routine down now and that has really helped. I get report and write everything down on my "brain" and then check my labs and am VS, and look over MARS next ...
