Registry vs Agency

Published Feb 8

187 Posts

In some states they use the term 'registry' for a nurse that works shifts that is not employed by the hospital. Is there a difference between agency nurse and registry nurse? Is there a difference with their pay between agency nurse and registry?

Thanks.
