I am a recent graduate nurse and I just passed my boards last Tuesday. I am very interested in travel nursing and wondering if anyone could suggest any companies that service Florida that have free single housing apartments or condos. I know that most companies want you to have a year of experience and I am doing that now and looking to start traveling next February. I would like to work in the Fort Lauderale, Miami, West Palm Beach areas. Thanks for any replies and suggestions.

Welcome to AllNurses.com. It is good to hear you are looking to get your experience under your belt. I do not know about the Fl area; you may want to check out our Florida Forum for local insight.
Here is a great link, here on AllNurses, for Travel Nursing tips:

Here is the Florida Nursing Forum; you miight see an interesting tip or a Facility recomendation that catches your interest. If you hear of a Facility that interests you, get their number (you can easily do a Google search or a search on the internet under yellow pages for telephone numbers) and call the Facility and ask them who they use for Vendors or Travel Agency contracts.

You will just need to start calling companies to find out what they have available.
FL. has increased it's pay rates some so that's a good sign.
Hang around here . You'll get some good feedback.
Good luck. I'd suggest 2 years experience.. But then again that's JMHO
