Whether snow skiing in Idaho, viewing the sunset from helicopter pad on the top of a hospital in Arizona, gazing at covered bridges in Vermont, or taking a long walk on the beach in Florida, travel nursing is an excellent way to get paid while exploring the United States.

Not only do you get the basics of travel nursing, but additional information is provided on the rewards and drawbacks of travel nursing and making the decision to travel, expanded knowledge on what travel companies are all about and how to choose the right one, all about JCAHO certification, which destinations are the best and how to choose a destination, information on traveling in a recreational vehicle, home-schooling your child while on the road, and additional information on licensing requirements, not to mention all you would ever need to know about travel nursing and your taxes. Stop dreaming about travel nursing, and step into reality with Highway Hypodermics: Travel Nursing 2007.

This review is from: Highway Hypodermics: Travel Nursing 2007 (Paperback)
This book explains all of the ins and outs of travel nursing. I wish I had read this before I signed a contract.Taxes, per diem, housing, pets it's all in here. Plus the indepth info on many of the travel agencies is very helpful in narrowing down your decision on who to sign with.

Great research book!,
By Epstein LaRue "RN, BS, Traveling Nurse, Educa... (Southeast Idaho, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Highway Hypodermics: Travel Nursing 2007 (Paperback)
Just wanted to post the following reviews that I have received so far...
"I LOVED your book. Read it over the weekend. I particularly thought that these sections were extremely valuable for travelers: (1) Politics, (2)What it takes.. (3) Tax Info (4)Homeschooling ...all the questions that even experienced travelers want answers to. YOU GO, GAL!! Great job!" Greg Allen, Cirrus Medical Staffing Epstein... YES I read the ENTIRE book and I thought that you did a GREAT job on the ins and outs of being a traveler and I love how you went into a little detail about how travelers are often given the more difficult assignments and are treated differently in some locations because everyone thinks we make sooo much more money than they do! It was a great way to throw much needed light on a topic that often discourages new travelers. It was AWESOME...as always! Half-Pint, RN, Travel Nurse "I am a huge fan! Highway Hypodermics is required reading in our office." Mary Cheek, Bestaff Arcadia My first impression was I liked the more in depth reviews of travel companies, which is helpful to gaining a knowledge of what the different companies offer. I also believe there is no perfect travel company, but each nurse can benefit by doing their homework in Highway Hypodermics to determine which company best fits them. Like in all of life, it is very hard to have a company that is tops in pay, service and benefits. Each nurse needs to determine which is most important to them and find the company that best delivers that need. I do agree that a good recruiter needs to know their nurse's strengths, likes and desires. And a pro-active recruiter is always a benefit to all involved. Thanks for what you do for the industry. Your service is helpful to all of us involved in it. Jon Perry, Travel Nurse Across America
