This role comes with various benefits including a $600 travel bonus, day one health insurance coverage through United Healthcare, a paid time off (PTO) plan that begins accruing immediately and can be used during the contract or cashed out at the end, a guaranteed stipend if the facility calls the nurse off, and an extra hourly bonus for working beyond the scheduled hours.
