There are many myths referencing Travel Nursing. Here, we debunk the topthree myths our Recruiters hear from applicants seeking a Travel Nurse position.
MYTH 1 – All Travel Nursing Agencies are the same.
Of course not. All agencies operate differently and are not the same. Most important is how an Agency Recruiter communicates with you and how well they inform you about open assignments, pay, benefits, and perks offered. Through communication with Recruiters, you will identify if a company’s values, processes, Pay, and reputation are in line with what you are seeking. Agencies comply with legal requirements when placing Travel Nurses, but they are not the same in how they engage with applicants.
Always ask Recruiters key questions and get as much information as you can about their Agency before making a final choice. Every Agency is different.

It is 100% possible to have a great traveling nurse career with continuous work if you are adventuresome, flexible on locations, love to travel, and available to provide your nursing expertise were needed. Travel nurses have become the solution to filling staffing gaps.
MYTH #3- Traveling Nurses are not liked by permanent staff.
False. If your assigned healthcare facility is contracting travel nurses, it’s because they need help easing the burden on permanent staff who have been working short-handed and long hours. The staff will welcome you and appreciate that you have arrived to provide needed relief. If you arrive ready to work without being judgmental about the processes used or comparing where you have been to where you are, the road to acceptance will be easy. You will fit right in.
