Pros
This will be my second travel nursing assignment. My first one made me question continuing the travel nursing role. However, Alyssa has been amazing. She is quick to respond and is able to make me feel at ease when there might be some concerning unknowns about the potential assignment. She is incredibly professional and I would recommend her to anyone looking for their next travel nursing assignment!
