Travel nursing means...

Travel nurses can expect to receive a minimum of 1-2 orientation shifts at the beginning of each new placement. While orientation periods are short, safety and exceptional professional capacity are our top priorities. And, of course, our Northern Med team is always available to support you through your entire assignment!
