Every year, the second week of October is dedicated to honoring the remarkable individuals who form the backbone of our healthcare system - the Emergency Room Registered Nurses (ER RNs). ER RN Week is a time to celebrate their tireless dedication, compassion, and the vital role they play in saving lives.

Embarking on your first travel assignment as a nurse is an exciting step in your career. It's an opportunity to explore new places, gain valuable experience, and make a positive impact on healthcare communities across the country. To ensure a smooth transition, it's essential to be well-prepared.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of healthcare, success is not solely determined by one's technical proficiency. While expertise will always be crucial, there are several other traits that define successful healthcare travelers. GetMed Staffing believes these qualities enable healthcare travelers to provide excellent care and have a positive impact on their patients' lives.

One benefit of being a healthcare traveler is being able to travel to desirable locations during the colder months. Planning ahead is crucial for traveling medical professionals who want to experience some warmth or hit the slopes, during their winter travel assignment.
