Whether you’re sailing in Iowa, viewing the sunset from helicopter pad on the top of a hospital in Arizona, gazing at covered bridges in Vermont, or taking a long walk on the beach in Florida, travel nursing is an excellent way to get paid while exploring the United States. 

Although Highway Hypodermics: Your Road Map To Travel Nursing was written in 2005 with some great information about travel nursing, the next edition, Highway Hypodermics: Travel Nursing 2007, brings expanded knowledge about the field of travel nursing.

Not only do you get the basics of traveling, but additional information is provided on the rewards and drawbacks of travel nursing and making the decision to travel, expanded knowledge on what travel companies are all about and how to choose the right one, all about JCAHO certification, which destinations are the best and how to choose a destination, information on traveling in a recreational vehicle, home-schooling your child while on the road, and additional information on licensing requirements, not to mention all you would ever need to know about travel nursing and your taxes.

Stop dreaming about travel nursing, and step into reality with Highway Hypodermics: Travel Nursing 2007.

Chapter subjects include:

  • How Did We Get To This Point?

  • What It Takes To Be Travel Nurse

  • The Good, Bad, and Ugly

"I LOVED your book.  Read it over the weekend.  I particularly thought that these sections were extremely valuable for travelers:

  • Politics

  • What it takes..

  • Tax Info

  • Homeschooling

…all the questions that even experienced travelers want answers to.  YOU GO, GAL!!  Great job!"

 

Greg Allen, Cirrus Medical Staffing

 

Epstein...  YES I read the ENTIRE book and   I thought that you did a GREAT job on the ins and outs of being a traveler and I love how you went into a little detail about how travelers are often given the more difficult assignments and are treated differently in some locations because everyone thinks we make sooo much more money than they do!  It was a great way to throw much needed light on a topic that often discourages new travelers.  It was AWESOME...as always!

"I am a huge fan!  Highway Hypodermics is required reading in our office."   

 

Mary Cheek, Bestaff Arcadia

 

My first impression was I liked the more in depth reviews of travel companies, which is helpful to gaining a knowledge of what the different companies offer.  I also believe there is no perfect travel company, but each nurse can benefit by doing their homework in Highway Hypodermics to determine which company best fits them. Like in all of life, it is very hard to have a company that is tops in pay, service and benefits. Each nurse needs to determine which is most important to them and find the company that best delivers that need.

I do agree that a good recruiter needs to know their nurse's strengths, likes and desires.  And a pro-active recruiter is always a benefit to all involved.

Thanks for what you do for the industry.  Your service is helpful to all of us involved in it.

Testimonials:

  • I really enjoyed your book. I have been thinking about traveling for a while, but never felt I had all the info to make such a drastic move. This book has given me the courage to go ahead with my plans.

  • I read the book in a couple of hours. I have been thinking seriously about becoming a traveler - out of state. I already work for an agency and work for a hospital about 72 miles from home. I like it. I think that me and my husband and son who will be 2 at the time of travel towards the end of the year will be going. Lots of good sound information re the traveling career - good and bad.

  • I bought the book a few months ago. I have been trying to get myself to travel since last January. (My husband lost his job of 23 years last August, Panic!) Having trouble making myself leave my children to do this. BUT, this book greatly helped me organize myself and answer questions I had about traveling.

  • I just wanted to thank you so much for this book and your tips!

  • I purchased the book, "Hitting the Road: A guide to travel nursing" by Shalon Kearney and it is a wonderful resource for any healthcare professional who is considering travel nursing. I highly encourage anyone who is considering a traveling career to purchase their own copy!
