Caution for Travel Nurses Considering Dartmouth Health I was terminated one day into my contract after a preceptor reported to the nurse manager that I “couldn’t draw up insulin.” The experience raised serious concerns about their onboarding process and how quickly travel nurses are judged and dismissed without a meaningful opportunity to address concerns. I returned my badge and was treated like a criminal - being told they would arrest me. Travel nurses invest significant time, money, and effort to take assignments. My experience left me feeling disposable and replaceable, with little of the kindness, respect, or compassion that Dartmouth Health advertises as its values. My advice to fellow travel nurses: proceed with caution. Ask questions about orientation, competency assessments, and early termination policies before accepting an assignment.
