Nursing is a passport to travel. I am Aussie, and I have worked in the UK, New Zealand, Canada. Tried USA but it was too long a process....and by that time, it was time to head home. I would love to do international patient retrieval nursing with government and insurance companies, bringing patients home on commercial flights.

L&D travel nurse here. RN 32 years. Travel 10 years. I also scrub for C/S. I also took the PeriOp 101 program. Love everything about what I do.

I am a Pre-Nursing student-Recently had three (3) surgeries and lengthy hospital stay-It was very reassuring when the OR nurses would introoduce themselves and just say "We are going to take excellent care of you during your procedure" Even if it is "routine" surgery, it is still nice to hear that the patient is still being cared for and not just a case on the board.

5 year ER nurse. Doing OR program right now. It’s very different. The procedures and process are not hard just very vast and take time to be familiarized with. I still pick up in ER because OR nurses really don’t do a much other nursing staff that’s outside of their specialty.

Hey Blake, I have been a critical care nurse for 33+ years, I tried travel nursing for about three years, then flight nursing for 7 1/2 years, I did my critical care certification and now I am hospital supervisor. You need to know how to take care of a patient, I got three days to learn the computer system, charting, and all the equipment

@@soleiljolie70 hi! I did not work my first 2 semesters , i just started at the beginning of my 3rd and I’ll be going into my final semester this fall. Honestly I wouldn’t recommend working a lot of hours in nursing school. Like no more than twice a week because you will really need that time to be studying
