Why Fall is the Ideal Season for Healthcare Travel

Fall is one of the best times of year to be a travel nurse or healthcare traveler. If you are embarking on a travel assignment this season– or considering taking the plunge into healthcare travel for the first time– your adventures will be filled with gorgeous, colorful landscapes and plenty of seasonal festivities to enjoy wherever your assignment takes you.

Read on to discover the perks of traveling on assignment in the fall.

Increased Demand for Travel Nurses and Allied Travelers

Fall is a prime season for healthcare travelers, with an increase in demand as flu season approaches and hospitals seek additional support. This increased demand means travelers have more job opportunities and choices on where they want to travel. Time to talk to your recruiter about your bucket list facilities and destinations!

Lower Travel Costs

With summer vacation season over, fall is generally a more budget-friendly time for travel. Flights, housing, and accommodations often drop in price, allowing travelers to save money or enjoy a higher standard of living during assignments.

Epic Outdoor Adventures

The crisp air and stunning landscapes are perfect for enjoying the very best of outdoor adventures. Many of the most popular hiking, camping, and adventuring spots are quieter in the off-season, providing a less crowded way to enjoy new areas and your favorite (or new!) hobbies. Talk with local outdoor enthusiasts and shops to see where they recommend in your area or join a local adventuring group to venture into the great outdoors together.

Cozy Seasonal Experiences

Fall is the perfect time to experience seasonal festivities in your new locations. Harvest festivals, Halloween celebrations, fairs – there’s always a lot going on throughout the season. Be sure to check out what’s happening in your area and talk to locals about where to go for the best experience.

Beyond the hustle and bustle, fall is the perfect time of year to get cozy by a fire and hunker down to read or Netflix and chill between shifts.
