Pros
For a first time travel nurse working in the ED, I have had nothing but a pleasant and smooth journey so far! While starting a new career is daunting, my recruiter Eric Paradowski has been beyond helpful and attentive. I truly feel that Eric has my best interests at top of mind when it comes to navigating contracts. Not only has Eric made the new job easy to adjust to, but he has let it be known every step of the way that he is there for his nurses when they need him! If you are interested at all in traveling as a nurse, please ask for Eric. I look forward to continuing my successful journey with him and everyone I have been connected with at Care Team Solutions!

We're Justin and Kyle. Neither of us are nurses. It doesn’t take a nurse tosee that the way travel nurses are treated sucks.
Nursing is already hard enough. Travel nursing takes serious guts. You get the toughest assignmentsin places you’ve never been. Which can be fun, but it’s also stressful. You’rein your element but outside of your hometown. You can be a stranger on theteam.
If anyone deserves someone in their corner, it’syou.
But that’s not how most agencies operate. Which is why travel nurses hate working with them. We got into thisbusiness because we saw bucket-loads of nurses moving through the "churnand burn" travel machinery. We absolutely hate that.
You'll do your best work when you have the placements you want and feel fully supported inyour work.
We pay our people well because we want them totreat you well.
Our recruiters are amazing (we picked each of themourselves), but if you've got a problem too big for them, they can comestraight to us.Wework like ten feet away.
The "Churners and Burners" promise youthe same benefits. They might as well copy/paste them from each other. We havethem too:
- 401k, holiday pay, healthcare, dental, travel
- reimbursement, etc
But we've worked hard for you to enjoy some one-of-a-kindbenefitsyou'll not likely find anywhere else, because they benefit you more than theybenefit us:
- Our early pay program
- Student loan reimbursement
- Free well-being tele-visits with a psychologist
