If you’re willing to relocate to where you’re needed most, you’ll find that crisis rates for travel nurses are skyrocketing due to COVID-19. In fact, the going weekly rate in some places has almost doubled, so you can earn up to $6,000/week. And if you’re willing to work with COVID-19 patients, that number can go even higher.
$6,000/week
Some locations offer an even higher rate of COVID-19 pay.
The demands of COVID-19 mean there is a bigger need for nurses than ever before, especially in the areas hardest hit by the virus.
You can take this opportunity to relocate somewhere new, or just explore a different city or town for a little while. Find the ideal location for you by experiencing it while working!
In addition, you’ll be helping others in the spot where your abilities are needed most. Care for people who might otherwise not get the treatment they require.
Coast Medical Service specializes in travel nursing, so we have plenty of resources on the benefits of working as a travel nurse.
With the need for skilled nurses increasing, so is the competition between hospitals to incentivize them. Ultimately, that leads to higher pay for you. A great travel nurse who can work in a crisis situation can earn a very lucrative living.
Learn by doing when working in the units that need people. With the demands of the COVID-19 front line, there are always opportunities in the ICU and telemetry units. Stick with a department that you already know to sharpen your skills, or expand your horizons and try something new.
In addition to the high pay rate, travel nurses have the ability to explore new places and expand their knowledge professionally and geographically. Living and working in different cities is enlightening and exciting, even in the middle of a pandemic.
“When I first moved to LA, I was unsure if I would be able to find steady work. A friend recommended Coast and I'm happy they did. The onboarding process was professional and efficient. Coast helped me find steady work within a week of my move at top hospitals. I know they have my best interest in mind and go the extra mile for me. Coast welcomed me to the family and made the move to CA worth it.”
