Travel Companies to Reccomend?

Published

Hello all! I am wondering if anyone has ever worked for Readylink? Also, I looked over past forums, and can't find mention of any names of companies to go with or avoid. Would love if everyone chipped in what good and bad companies they have delt with:) TY

Has anyone heard of Core Nursing?

I have traveled with Nursing Innovations for years and they are wonderful. I recently traveled to California with another company, Advantage RN and the entire 4 week assignment was awful. To top things off, they took most of my money. Watch yourself and your money if anyone ever attempt to travel with Advantage RN.

Hi, I am just getting started in traveling as well, and have not heard anything good or bad about Nightingale Nurses. I have a recruiter from Preferred Healthcare Staffing trying to get me an assignment where I want, so now I am considering these two agencies. Anyone have any advice regarding these companies? Thanks for your time!

I also need to find out if anyone has rxperience with travel max or maxim. I have worked for Maxim agency for 5 yeears and I am now going to travel. My daughters life depends on it. She has to see Dr. Rekate (neurosurgeon)in Phoenix. There is a cranial surgery he is doing that she will die without. Travel Max can put me in Phoenix with 1st day insurance. My dughter has had 43 vp shunt revisions in the last 10 yr. This surgery can stop the need for all these surgeries. PLEASE if you have info on this agency let me know.

Thanks,

I am sorry to hear about your daughter. You say you have worked for Maxim for five years so you should be generally familiar with the company and how it treats its employees. At one time, I found some Maxim individuals to be very concerned with my well being, which highly impressed me. However, this was due to personal attributes of the persons involved. While I can not speak for Travel Max specifically, as I haven't worked for that division, I would think that you could count on being treated well while in your travel position. Good luck with your daughter's situation. I hold the best of hopeful intentions for her health.

Thank you CRNI for your reply, I am looking at Preferred as well. They seem to have it together. I am also looking at a company named Trinity. The recruiter is really working for me right now to get where I want to be. **fingers crossed** :D

Maxim is disorganized. Have you ever been to their office? It's a mess! papers on the floor, I almost fell of the chair (broken), when we went to the conference room, the interviewer had to remove boxes off the table, there were other boxes discarded on top of filing cabinets, etc, etc, etc. That's just a reflection on what they do with you as a client. Those are just my 2 cents.

Thank You for your prayers that is what we are going on. I need to know if you are talking about travel max or just maxim. Maxim can be disorganized and I am familiar with them. However, travel max seems to have it together. I am a first time traveler. I can work in any ER and hold my own. I worked at SLU in Missouri and it is the gun and knife club of St. Louis. But I am afraid of going to a new city and trying to figure out all the stuff you guys are talking about. Like Tax Advantage. I am making this trip with my diabled mother, terminal daughter, and 1 year old son. You can see why I am worried. It is not just me I am taking care of. Any and all advice is appreciated.

Thank You,

TiredBraveHeart:confused:
