A Special Appreciation for Travel Nurses at TJRH By Stacey Biggs With the stress of the last two years, including an almost overwhelming nursing shortage, it was very clear we could use extra hands in order to continue to provide top-notch patient care. While we had generally limited the extra expense of travel nurses in previous years, we did not have that option during COVID - our staff nurses needed immediate help. Cue the addition of dozens of travel nurses. What is a travel nurse? Travel nurses are skilled professionals who take on temporary nursing positions in areas where they are needed. While the travel nursing concept is not new, the COVID-19 pandemic created a nationwide nursing crisis and, as a result, it also created a huge demand for travel nurses. This option for RNs includes many rewards - such as higher pay, the opportunity to see and work in different parts of the country, and exposure to different nurse leadership practices. But there are downsides as well. Travel nurses often find themselves in unfamiliar environments, surrounded by new people, new systems and processes to learn, and they often experience homesickness caused by time away from their families. It's not an easy choice. The travel nurse experience at T.J. Samson Community Hospital The travel nurses that we have been blessed with over the last year and a half at T.J. have been nothing short of amazing. It is hard to imagine how difficult it must be for someone to travel to a place they've never been, work with people they've never met, and get used to systems and procedures to which they have never been accustomed.
