Thank you comment icon Hi Landon I agree with the previous responses, but I would add that if you want to Wyeth for a company with great benefits, try signing up for travel assignments with the Veterans Healthcare Administration! Dr.Cole Dr. Wendy Cole Ph.D, MSN, RN

Hi Landon,

You will need to be a nurse first before you can become a traveling nurse. There are a few schools in your area that do nursing, SFSU, SJSU, Cal state Eastbay, and Sac state are a few of the public universities that offer nursing as a major. They are pretty competitive, because the cost of tuition is much lower in comparison to a a private university.

Nurses undergo a comprehensive training program that equips them with skills applicable to all areas of nursing. The choice of where to apply these skills after graduation is entirely up to you. It's worth noting that typically, a two-year nursing experience is required before a traveling agency considers your application. Remember, success is on the horizon. Best of luck!

Traveling nurses work in all different nursing specialties. They just work with a staffing or travel nurse company that sends nurses for 13 week assignments to different hospitals, agencies, and medical clinics in need of nurses. Travel nurses usually require a “compact”RN license to travel to other states to practice nursing. Travel nurses have the same Nursing Degrees as other nurses, but usually need a good 2 years of experience as a nurse before moving into a Travel position.
