Because of a sense of loyalty I felt to my hospital, which had given me so much over the last few years, I stayed onboard. But after about 8-months I decided I had fulfilled my duty to my hospital, and it was time to go learn something new – so I signed up with Next Move as a travel nurse and have never looked back.
We recently surveyed all our Next Move nurses to get a feel, in real-time, of what they love about travel nursing, what they hate, and what we as the best travel nurse agency in the Midwest, can do to help. The survey brought some insight to the team and we’d like to address it with you directly today: Are travel nurses treated poorly by hospital staff?
What's a travel nurse? Do you qualify to be a travel nurse? How do you get started as a travel nurse?
Many of our nurses will make the request (and prefer for obvious reasons), block scheduling. A lot of hospitals will grant travel nurses this type of schedule, and some will not.
We’ve yet to meet a travel nurse that didn’t start out as a traveler wanting to make as much money as possible, especially since the beginning of the 2020 pandemic when weekly nursing rates were skyrocketing at $6-10K a week.
How much do nurses that work for Next Move earn annually? We spoke to 3 of our nurses who have worked multiple contracts with us over the past 2-years. Below we give you an outline of how much they earned in the last 12-months, what kind of hours they worked, how much time they took off, their travel nursing experience and what goals they were looking to meet.
There are a few things you’ll need to apply for any travel nursing position and keeping track of all of it can be especially daunting. No worries! We’re here to help.
One of the biggest misconceptions about travel nursing is that you have to fly solo when it comes to healthcare and benefits and things like 401Ks and we’re here to tell you: not true. In addition to all the perks and benefits of being a travel nurse: higher pay, schedule flexibility, more nursing experience, travel nurses get a lot of the same traditional benefits staff nurses get such as health, vision, and dental insurance along with 401K benefits.
One of the best ways to differentiate yourself from all other nurse travelers is to fine tune your nursing resume in order to help your recruiters submit you for assignments in a faster, more effective way. Unlike staff nursing – where you are your own representative – in the world of travel you will most likely make a connection with a travel nurse recruiter who will then represent you to secure those premier travel nursing assignments.
Dozens of nurses over the years have come to me curious about how I make this travel nursing thing work and the common sentiment amongst nurses on why they don't consider letting go of their staff positions and jumping into the world of travel is: FEAR. All caps.
When it comes to travel nursing, I get asked a two questions all the time: Will I have consistent work? How much *more* money will I make?
There’s no denying that since the pandemic hit early last year, honoring our nation’s nurses is profoundly more significant than it ever has been before, which makes this year’s National Nursing Week, that much more important. Be it a national health emergency or just routing daily care, we here at Next Move Inc. recognize nurses’ vital contributions and the impact they have on the health and well-being of our communities.
