Should I Travel Nurse?

[DrummerDeanna]

Wow...looks like you're looking a big life change there.

The way you set it up though it sounds like you are wanting a change like travel nursing. There are lots of questions, but only you can answer those....

Ultimately you should not stay put in a situation who feel you are settling for or which does not make you happy. And if the travel nursing thing doesn't work out - there must be other options, I'd think there would be lots of permanent nursing positions available...if you were to return.

It WILL probably be hard at first, you will be homesick...but you get past those things and it gets easier

Good luck with your decision!!

I agree with Deanna, there will be a transition period, and lots of uncertainty but I sense that you are ready for a change, and that your current situation leaves much to be desired.....at least you picked a field that has a constant need for skilled workers, so no matter what, I think you should be able to find a job...and I knew a gal who did travel nursing in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. She LOVED it! had a beautiful home close to the California/Nevada border, got to make GOOD $$$$ and didnt get stagnant doing the same old thing with the same old people in the same old place. Always new challenges and faces and places and yes, it was the right thing for her, maybe it will be for you too
