Hello,
My wife and I are new to the idea of traveling. We are both
RN's and want to explore travel nursing, however there are so many companies out there offering so many benefits and options we need to know what the true experts in travel nursing have to say so we came here. Are there disadvantages in traveling together? Are there advantages other then the obvious in traveling together. Finally are there companies to avoid and why and what companies are the best for new travelers.

I don't know about all the companies. I have been a traveler for 3 years and have traveled with about 5 different companies. Most have been about the same, some a little better than others. I have worked for American Traveler, Mobile Medical, Nightengale, Nova Pro. The last company I am working for now is Emerald Health Services. They staff CA and NV. I travel a lot with my grown children and granddaughter. Emerald has been so good about finding housing and areas that are safe. They are great providers. They are very considerate to my needs. They pay very well and have good benefits. My recruiter, Amir, is there night and day if I need him. They answer all my questions and everyone in the office is helpful. You can call them at 800-917-5055. I know I sound like a recruiter but I have been very happy with them.
Hope you both find what you are looking for. You will really enjoy traveling. It has been a wonderful 3 years for me and having my family close has made it that much better.
