Aside from the highly competitive wages and excellent compensation packages that are par for the course, there are several other key benefits to being a travel nurse:
1) Adventure
Travel nurses have the power to decide what kind of life they want and the freedom to try it out; travel nurses control their criteria from assignment to assignment, they have the freedom to see the country.
2) Professional growth and networking
Because of the transient nature of the work, travel nurses experience a multitude of different cultures and people and ways of doing things they would otherwise never encounter. The exposure to new technology, training with cutting edge techniques, comfort with often under served patient populations with none of the politics or management issues of a permanent position is an immeasurable help to any resume; travel nurses are flexible, adaptable, and can draw from a breadth of experience.
3) Flexibility.
As a travel nurse you draw your own career path with your personal and professional agenda in mind. The option to take time between assignments for family issues, vacation, or just exploring an area you’ve been curious about is something only travel nursing can provide.
