So when I saw the opportunity for myself, I took the leap and haven't turned back yet.
The travel contracts are typically anywhere from eight weeks to 13 weeks in length with the option to extend.
I started by going up to upstate New York.
Then I was in Columbus, Ohio for a little bit.
I did spend some time in New York City.
And now I am over exploring the West Coast in Phoenix, Arizona and loving it out here so far.
My permanent residence is in Florida.
My husband and I, that's kind of our home base.
He is flexible.
He's able to work remotely, so he's able to come with me on these assignments, which is really cool.
Housing during these travel assignments can be a little bit of a challenge.
We have found some great apps that we use, mainly Furnished Finders.
It offers fully furnished apartments for short-term leases.
The challenge is that most travel nursing contracts are posted within a four-week window.
So it can be a little last minute and a little bit flustering trying to put all the pieces together.
But I feel like that's kind of what you sign up for when you choose travel nursing.
I feel like it takes a certain personality to be a travel nurse.
You have to be extremely flexible, adaptable, but also know kind of when to stand up for yourself.
I spend a good deal of time, especially the past few weeks as my contract here is wrapping up, searching for different contracts, talking with recruiters, doing interviews.
interviews with the management at these facilities and then also negotiating the pay packages as well once they do come in.
