How long are travel nursing assignments?

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

Most of the time an assignment is for 13 weeks, or 3 months. This is far and away the most common. Once in awhile a facility will have a short term need and put up a travel nursing job for 4 weeks and sometimes other terms but almost all of what you will see advertised are for 13 weeks.

Once that 13 weeks is up, though, if everyone is happy you may well get offered an extension. If they really want you the travel nursing agency you are working will likely offer you a bonus to “re-up.”

Always ask.

Travel nursing is one of the most exciting going on in the nursing jobs community. In this blog we are going to keep you up to date on what is going on, answer questions we receive regarding travel nursing jobs and occasionally throw up a personal experience of an actual traveler.

I’m here to give you the real scoop on travel nursing and not to sugar coat it. Everything about travel nursing, (and nursingĀ  itself for that matter), is not peaches and cream. I want to help you make an informed decision on whether or not this the thing for you.

If you have a question, leave me a comment and I will do my best to answer it. I don’t know everything about travel nursing but I bet you I know someone who does, so ask away.
