Who can Become a Travel Nurse?

Registered nurses who have at least 12 to 18 months of hospital-based RN experience can apply for travel nursing jobs. If you are looking at travel jobs for specific nursing specialties, some hospitals and facilities could require a longer work history. You can find various travel nursing assignments available for all specialties, but there are some that are in more demand than others, such as labor and delivery (L&D) and intensive care units (ICU).
