The best thing about working with Host Healthcare was my recruiter, Chris Murillo. He exemplifies the model for responsive, timely, and enthusiastic service. Chris also makes the effort to develop personal relationships with his clients. This is a man who truly cares about me as a person. Kudos to Host Healthcare for hiring and retaining this quality individual.
![travel nursing jobs united states travel nursing jobs united states](https://www.hosthealthcare.com/wp-content/themes/pdm/dist/img/source-facebook.jpg)
I’ve had a great experience with Host Healthcare. Lauren Pollacci is an excellent recruiter and easily the best one I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with, she made the entire process painless. She is always extremely helpful with any need or concern I may have. I couldn’t imagine working with another recruiter at this point!
I've been working with Host Healthcare as a travel nurse for three years now and wouldn't change a thing. My recruiter Kat Cook has made the transition from staff nursing to travel nursing so easy. She is always available, listens to the needs of both myself and my wife (travel pair), and finds us the best jobs in the best locations! 10 out of 10 would recommend her and the agency every time.
![travel nursing jobs united states travel nursing jobs united states](https://www.hosthealthcare.com/wp-content/themes/pdm/dist/img/source-google.jpg)
Just started my 7th PT contract with Host and every contract has been a smooth transition. I’ve had great communication with my recruiter Kathryn Cook who has helped me land some great jobs and help with the credentialing process. I plan on staying with Host for many more years.

How To Choose a Travel Nursing Company
When looking for the best travel nursing company to suit your needs, you first have to know what your needs are.
Here are a few questions to ask yourself when considering travel nursing companies:
- Are you going to need health insurance?
- How important is it that you contribute to your retirement?
- Do you prefer to find your own housing, or do you want your company to find it for you?
- Where do you want to travel?
- How do you plan on getting there?
- Do you plan on working per diem as well?
- What kind of healthcare facilities are you hoping to work in?
What to Look for in a Travel Nursing Agency
When looking into travel nurse agencies, you should first make sure that they provide the basics: free housing or a housing stipend, health and dental insurance, a retirement plan, travel reimbursement, 24-hour customer support, and a variety and abundance of travel nursing jobs all over the country.
1. The Travel Nurse Housing Options
Do you want your agency to find housing for you, or do you want to take the housing stipend and search for housing yourself?
I personally found it much easier to have my agency set up my housing for me. This way, I knew it was safe, furnished, close to where I was working, and paid for. If there were any problems, all I had to do was call my company, and it would be handled.
Many people choose to find their own housing and take the housing stipend instead. There are pros and cons to this choice:
Pros To Choosing Housing Stipends
- Your housing stipend depends on the city you live in, but oftentimes, it is more than the rent you end up paying. This is a good way to make some extra tax-free cash.
- You can find exactly the type of housing you’re looking for at the price you’re willing to pay. You can rent just a room for yourself and pocket a lot of cash. Or rent an entire house if you’re bringing your family or pets along. If you’re traveling with fellow coworkers, you can find a bigger house to share that fits everyone.
- You can choose where you live. Maybe you’re going to Seattle and you’d rather live downtown and commute to work than vs. living next to the hospital in the suburbs.
- There are several websites and groups now to help you find housing
- Once you’ve done it once, you understand how to find housing and can repeat the process in the next location.
Cons To Choosing Housing Stipends
- It can be difficult to find short-term furnished housing.
- Many landlords require a deposit, so you have to front that money before you get your first paycheck.
- If you end up extending your contract, it’s not guaranteed that your landlord hasn’t rented out the place to someone else.
- If you have never been to that city before, it can also be tough to determine whether a neighborhood is safe or not.
Another thing to keep in mind, if you are traveling with a pet, it may make it difficult to find your own housing. Oftentimes, travel nurse agencies have housing already contracted that accepts pets.
There are pros and cons to using your a travel nurse agency’s contracted housing vs. finding your own housing. It just depends on how much time and effort you can put into the search and if you’re hoping to pocket any extra housing stipend cash.
2. The Benefits Offered
The majority of travel nurse companies offer health and dental insurance.
Now that the Affordable Care Act is in place, it might be wise to research whether or not it would be more cost-effective for you to go with your agency’s healthcare plan or purchase one of your own through healthcare.org. The benefit of going through healthcare.org is that if you do plan on switching travel nurse agencies, you won’t have to change your insurance.
Some smaller travel nurse companies will give you a healthcare stipend if you don’t take their health insurance so you can purchase your own.
As far as retirement plans go, I decided to open up my own Roth IRA and not contribute to the 401K because I didn’t know how long I was going to be traveling. With some companies you can contribute to your 401K from day 1 and with others you have to wait as long as 1 year.
3. The Travel Nurse Reimbursements
When talking with your potential travel nurse agency, make sure you ask them what the reimbursement is for travel.
“Travel” cost is considered the amount of money it takes you to get from your “tax home” to your travel assignment or from one assignment to the next. Often times this can be negotiated if there is a high need in one state that happens to be across the country.
I have found that the average reimbursement is $500.
They will pay you half on your first paycheck and the other half when you complete your assignment. You have the option of either driving or flying to your next destination. I personally drove to each of my assignments; I couldn’t imagine trying to fit all my belongings into suitcases, and I love road trips.
Important Pay and Benefits Questions to Ask
Not all benefits or pay packages are created equal. It is important to find an agency that offers benefits, housing, and pay packages that are specific to your needs.
1. What destinations does your agency serve?
The whole point of travel nursing is to travel…right? So it is important to find a company that serves the city or cities you want to travel to. Some agencies claim they have contracts nationwide, however, that may not be the case.
If you know of a specific hospital that you would like to travel to because it looks good on your resume or a specific city you want to explore, then make sure your potential agency has a contract at that location. This is especially important if you want to travel to places such as Hawaii and Alaska.
Match with a travel company here.
2. How are your pay packages broken down?
Does the company tend to pay a higher base rate with lower non-taxable reimbursements or a lower base rate with higher non-taxable reimbursements?
Having a higher base rate may serve you better if you plan on taking company housing, plan on buying a house, or getting a loan in the near future. If you are someone who likes to find their own housing, then a higher housing stipend may be the way to go with a lower base rate.
3. What types of housing do you provide?
Most agencies offer a one-bedroom furnished apartment for your typical 13-week contract. This typically does not include dishes, linen, a washer and dryer, a T.V., or even a vacuum. If you don’t like lugging your belongings around with you all over the country or paying out of pocket to rent this stuff, then it may be wise to either ask if the agency provides any of these necessities at no cost or find your own housing.
If your contract is only eight weeks, then you could get stuck in an extended-stay hotel. I personally like to have nice housing, so I wanted a company that focused on providing comfortable and safe housing options. If you like to find your own housing then this may not apply to you.
4. What type of benefits do you offer?
Most agencies offer medical/dental benefits and a retirement package. If these benefits are important to you, then finding a company with good benefits is essential.
If you like to live on the edge with no health benefits and you brush and floss your teeth like a champ, then maybe you don’t care about benefits. If this is the case then you can ask the company if they are willing to pay you a higher base rate for not taking their benefits.
As far as retirement packages go, I found it easier to do my own Roth IRA on the side. This way, if I switched companies I didn’t have to worry about moving my money all over the place.
Click here to discover new high paying opportunities.
5. What types of extra work-related costs do you reimburse for?
Travel nurse companies can reimburse you for the following:
- Licensing fees
- CEU (Continuing Education) requirements
- Certifications
- Required immunizations
Some travel nurse agencies have a CEU database that is free for their employees. This helps cut costs in those states that require a certain number to maintain or acquire a new license.
These extra costs add up over time so it’s nice to know your agency is looking out for your pocketbook.
6. What are your missed and canceled shift policies?
A missed shift means you called in sick, and a canceled shift means they canceled you for low census. For the most part, the hospital determines how the travel nurse agency handles this, and it will be written in your contract.
This is important because in the travel nurse world if you don’t work, you don’t get paid. And in some cases, you may have to reimburse your agency for housing costs.
There may be a clause written in your contract that allows you to “miss” a certain amount of shifts without being penalized. There will also be a clause that states how many shifts the hospital can cancel you. Usually, it’s once a pay period, and your agency shouldn’t require you to reimburse them for housing costs.
There are even some agencies that offer 100% guaranteed shifts meaning no matter what you will not get canceled.
Find travel assignments in your specialty here.
Other Questions To Ask a Travel Nurse Agency:
- What is the travel reimbursement?
- How much will health insurance cost me?
- If I don’t take health insurance, do I get a healthcare stipend?
- When can I start contributing to my 401K?
- Are there bonuses for extending assignments?
- How often do I get paid?
- Does the company also contract per diem work?
- Do they offer paid time off?
- Are there any referral bonuses available?

Travel Nursing from Canada!
Your international travel nursing ticket to the usa.
![travel nursing jobs united states Lanita and Jessika posing for a photo with a dog.](https://www.ayahealthcare.com/wp-content/themes/ayahealthcare/static/images/marketing/canadian-nurses-landing-page/lanita-and-jessika-min.jpg)
Want to join fellow Canadian nurses working in the USA?
Travel nursing from Canada to the US is easier than you might think. At Aya Healthcare, we handle the paperwork so you can focus on what you do best: taking care of patients. We’ll take care of everything else.
And we mean EVERYTHING! We don’t think coming to the USA should cost you a lot of time or money. That’s why we offer this concierge service to make things as easy as possible.
Become a Canadian Nurse Working in the USA
International travel nursing can be intimidating. That’s why we walk you through each step of the process.
What’s the timeline for travel nursing from Canada? The short answer is around six months (with Aya). That’s around half the time it would take you to do it on your own or go through other Canadian travel nursing agencies. Our experts walk you through the process and review your paperwork for errors before you submit. We get you there faster by removing the barriers that slow your application.
As a Canadian nurse moving to the USA, here’s what you’ll need:
VisaScreen certification through CGFNS
CGFNS evaluates your education/credentials and verifies that you can work in the US by granting the VisaScreen certification. If you qualify for our licensure project (see right) we'll reimburse your $540 application fee once you start working. And more good news ... we can take care of the following requirements simultaneously. Again, the ENTIRE process should only take six months.
![](http://ortec.site/777/templates/cheerup1/res/banner1.gif)
US State License
You’ve applied for VisaScreen certification. Great job! Now you need a US state license (we’ll pay for this too if you qualify). This can take anywhere from 4-12 weeks to be issued. Again, we can work on your license while you’re waiting for your VisaScreen certification.
Book a travel nursing job!
Now, you’re ready to go. Because you’re smart, you’re working with an experienced Canadian travel nursing agency. As we say in the US, “this isn’t our first rodeo.” We have deep relationships with facilities across the country. We know which healthcare facilities will book you with some of the paperwork pending.
Border crossing documentation
Congrats! You got a job and it’s time to join your fellow Canadian travel nurses in the USA! We’ll walk you through what you need to bring. Gather that documentation and cross the border within 10 days of your contract start date. Request TN Status (AKA the TN Visa for Canadian nurses) at the border. Again, we’ll help with this!
Apply for a US Social Security Number
Once you’re in the US, it’s time to apply for your social security number. This number allows you to work in any state. You should get your social security card in the mail in 4-8 weeks. This won’t affect your timeline. You can work at certain facilities while waiting for your social security card.

Traveling around the country is a desirable possibility for nurses like me who want to make more money and shake up our professional life. Not only is there the potential for a higher salary, but there is also the excitement of visiting new places. Most nurses considering traveling look for the highest-paying states for travel nurses.

Yes, international travel nursing opportunities are numerous and varied. Not only are there nursing shortages in the United States, but many countries across the world experience these same shortages.
These medical personnel shortages are especially common in countries with disease outbreaks or natural disasters.
RN international travel jobs not only allow you to experience other countries and cultures, but you’ll also be able to expand your nursing skills, learn new medical techniques, and further develop language and communication skills.
How Do I Become an International Travel Nurse?
Becoming a travel nurse internationally is much like becoming a travel nurse domestically. In addition to being a licensed nurse in the U.S., you may need special certifications to meet other requirements of the country you want to work in.
Each country is different in its specifications, so if international RN travel jobs intrigue you, spending some time researching the options and requirements will help you know what’s needed or what you may need to acquire before you apply for a position.
If you are new to travel nursing, we recommend taking at least one or two domestic assignments first before you commit to nursing overseas.
Getting some experience working in different facilities across the country will help you get your feet wet before you step into jobs in other countries that may come with extra stressors like:
- A new culture
- A new climat
- A new language
- Different techniques and facilities
Trusted Nurse Staffing has qualified and experienced recruiters with the know-how to connect you to your desired domestic assignment.
Not only that, Trusted Nurse Staffing will help you look for exciting assignments with job security and benefits while giving you the personal attention you’re looking for.

![travel nursing jobs united states Pronto-CTA](https://www.trustednursestaffing.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Pronto-CTA-1024x341.png)
Since travel nurses are needed almost everywhere, international travel nursing jobs are available in countries across the world.
Some of the countries with the greatest need for travel nurses include:
- New Zealand
- The Middle East
This is just the tip of the iceberg, however. Many other countries are also in need.
The World Health Organization published a report entitled The State of the World’s Nursing 2020 which reported a “ global (nurse) shortfall of 5.9 trillion .”
This report listed areas with immense need like:
- South East Asia
- Latin America
No matter the location, working as a travel nurse internationally is certain to provide experience:
- With patients of different ages.
- In a variety of conditions.
- With a variety of diseases.
- In different types of hospitals — from low-income to state-of-the-art medical facilities.
What Nursing Specialties Are Needed Abroad?
Nursing specialties of all kinds are needed abroad, but the most sought after specialties include:
- Emergency room
- Operating room
- Medical/surgical
- Intensive care
- Pediatric care
- Cardiac care
- Labor and delivery
How Long Are International Travel Nurse Assignments?
Travel nurse assignments differ depending on location and assignment, but most international travel nurse assignments last for one to two years .
Some international travel nurse assignments may also come with time off between assignments. In places like the Middle East, it’s not uncommon to get an assignment where the facility covers the cost of the nurse’s travel home between the first and second year.
If you’re not quite ready to jump into a long-term assignment overseas, maybe a short-term volunteer assignment will help you get your feet wet.
Volunteer nursing positions are available through many non-profit organizations, and the duration of the assignments is much shorter — usually 3-6 weeks .
Of course, there is no payment for volunteer positions, but it may be a great way to experience an international assignment before you sign a longer-term contract.
Most international travel nurses make an hourly wage, but how much an international travel nurse makes may be dependent on several factors like:
- The location of the assignment
- The type of assignment
- The nurse’s qualifications or specialty certifications
Many overseas assignments pay less than the same job in the United States, but they may come with other benefits that offset the lower salary.
Some of these benefits may include things like:
- Housing and food stipends
- Paid time off
Another thing to remember is that the cost of living is lower in many other countries. When you consider the lower cost of living, the lower salary may be comparable to a nursing position in the States.
Taxes also can play a large role when considering the bottom line. Whether you will need to pay taxes or not depends on the country and the assignment. In places like the Middle East, it’s common to have tax-free assignments.
Along with many other details, international travel nurses will need to verify pay deduction and tax requirements with the agency they work with.
Which Countries Pay the Most for International Travel Nurses?
In general, the highest paying international travel nurse jobs are found in European countries.
The following European countries pay the highest travel nurse salaries:
- The Netherlands
Europe offers the highest paying jobs because of the way compensation packages may be structured, but other high paying jobs can be found in other places like:
- The Virgin Islands
The pay in many of these locations ranges from $22,000 to $125,000 per year. In addition, some of the jobs in these locations offer exemplary benefits in top-notch facilities.
![travel nursing jobs united states international travel nursing opportunities](https://www.trustednursestaffing.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/international-travel-nursing-opportunities-1024x563.jpg)
Do International Travel Nursing Jobs Have the Same Benefits, Stipends, and Travel Allowances as Domestic Travel Nurse Jobs?
Of course, all of the specifics will vary depending on the agency, country, and assignment, but most international travel nurse assignments come with some sort of benefits package.
Going over all of the details with travel nursing abroad agencies is the only way to know the full extent of the benefits.
Many international travel nurse jobs come with similar benefits as those found in the U.S. like:
- Health insurance
- Paid licensing fees
- Travel to the assignment location
Time off between assignments may also be an attractive incentive, but it’s important to check the details. Caps may be set on time off, and these benefits can be lost if the time off is extended beyond the allotted time.
It’s extremely important for international travel nurses to understand exactly what is being offered in terms of benefits, stipends, and allowances. Getting everything in writing is a must.
If you want to compare international pay and benefits to those of domestic assignments, it would be worthwhile to take a look at Trusted Nurse Staffing.
Trusted Nurse Staffing offers top pay and benefits for domestic assignments.
Many travel nurse jobs are available abroad for LPNs, RNs, and APRNs .
Regardless of your level of training, international travel nurses may need to
- Have a degree from an accredited school.
- Be in good standing.
- Meet any of the country’s specific licensing requirements.
- Pass the NCLEX (National Council Licensure Examination).
- Pass any exams necessary for a specialty.
- Have one year of experience in a specialty area.
In addition to these educational and licensing requirements, there are several other travel specifications and documents that might be necessary, including:
- Work permit
- Sponsorship letters
- Birth certificate
- Immunization certificate
Lastly, language tests may be a requirement — even if you are traveling to an English-speaking country like Britain, Canada, or Australia.
Without a doubt, a travel nurse agency will give you a vast amount of information about international travel nursing on their website or in an initial interview. Thorough knowledge is key, so here are some important questions to ask the agency before you apply:
- Is travel health insurance part of the compensation package?
- Do you get paid vacation time and when?
- How often and in what currency will you be paid?
- Can you terminate your contract early if you’re not happy with the location?
- What locations do you serve?
- How is your pay package structured?
- Do you provide free housing or a housing stipend?
- Are there any signing incentives or end-of-assignment bonuses?
- How much time can I take off between assignments?
- Do you cover travel expenses to the travel location?
![travel nursing jobs united states international travel nursing](https://www.trustednursestaffing.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/international-travel-nursing-1024x563.jpg)
An assignment as an overseas travel nurse can be both rewarding and challenging . Stepping into a new culture, experiencing new food, missing family and friends, and starting a new job can all be formidable.
If you have never experienced travel nursing abroad, consider these tips as you prepare for your overseas assignment.
#1 The Buddy System
Traveling alone to a new country and culture can bring about loneliness and homesickness. Bringing a spouse or partner or asking a nursing friend to apply with you are great ways to combat these difficult emotions.
Bringing a pet may also be a possibilit y.
You will need to keep in mind that each country has its own regulations for bringing in animals . Permits and health evaluations may be necessary, and sometimes pets need to be quarantined for a period of time once they arrive in the country. All of this can be quite costly.
#2 Give Yourself Time to Settle In
Arrive a few weeks early so you can get accustomed to your new city.
You’ll want to use this time to:
- Get settled into your home
- Organize your transportation
- Figure out your route to your work location
- Get familiar with the city (find the grocery store, pharmacy, parks, etc.)
#3 Learn the Language
If you are considering a country where the first language is not English, it may be necessary to learn the native tongue.
Even if you find an assignment in one of these countries, and they don’t require you to speak the language, it would still be incredibly beneficial to be able to speak the language conversationally for everyday interactions.
#4 Pack Light
You don’t need to bring the kitchen sink.
When packing to head to your overseas assignment, bring as little as possible .
Big items like furniture and household items will most likely be provided for you, so all you’ll need to bring is clothing and personal belongings and maybe a special item to remind you of home.
#5 Request an Orientation of the Medical Facility
A final item to consider when planning on how to travel nurse abroad is to visit the medical facility where you’ll be working.
Rather than jumping in cold, request to have a tour of the facility/ward before your first day. Ask as many questions as you can about the expectations and daily responsibilities .
Maybe you aren’t quite ready to take the plunge and jump into an overseas assignment.
There are plenty of domestic travel nurse assignments available, and these types of assignments can be a fabulous way to prepare you for a longer assignment farther away.
And you’ll still have the opportunity to visit some areas of your own country that are new to you while you get the chance to use and develop your nursing skills.
Trusted Nurse Staffing offers:
- Choice of assignment
- Outstanding pay
- Excellent benefits
- Flexible contracts that range from 8 to 52 weeks.
With the personal attention of one of our recruiters, Trusted Nurse Staffing can help you find your dream job in your desired location.
