Do I need a separate nursing license for each state?
With the NLC (Nurse Compact License) in effect in most states, you don’t typically need separate licenses. The NLC allows nurses to work in multiple states with one multistate license. If your assignment is in one of the non-compact states, you will need that state’s license, but don’t worry, our recruiters can help guide you through the process so you can get started on your assignment quickly.

Which state is best for travel nursing?
The “best state” truly depends on your specialty, lifestyle, and your salary goals. States like California, Washington, and New York often offer higher pay (however, always keep in mind the cost of living in these locations), while states like Texas, Florida, and North Carolina offer strong demand and a lower cost of living. Use the state list above to compare assignments and find the right fit for your next contract.
