Extensions: Effective 2/1/26 (Nursing only, excluding CVOR) Travelers cannot extend for a 4
th
consecutive contract. Travelers will need to begin the process of converting to an employee status after working their third consecutive 13-week contract or after 39 weeks. If the traveler does not wish to convert to a team member status, they will be required to take a minimum six-month separation before they are eligible to return as a traveler for the organization.

Travelers must be 100 miles from every Prisma facility (regardless of where they are applying) to be eligible to travel in the system,

unless they are one of the two exceptions below

Exception 1:

Night shift travelers
for below specialties must be 50+ miles ONLY from the contracted campus they re applying to. Full BR granted at 100+ miles away. Under 50 miles is ineligible.

If you have any issues, please let the Account Manager or your CS know ASAP.

Floating: Prisma Health s goal is to keep staff in their home unit. However, it is a requirement for all assignments that agency staff, regardless of unit or facility, must float to other Prisma Health units and/or campuses per request due to census concerns.
Staff will only be floating to units they are qualified for and performing tasks for which competencies have already been demonstrated and documented.

Modules:

Modules are completed pre-start and not included in NBO, and completed annually

Modules are recorded in transcripts by Prisma Health, time is not entered into timecards
