Pros

For a first time travel nurse working in the ED, I have had nothing but a pleasant and smooth journey so far! While starting a new career is daunting, my recruiter Eric Paradowski has been beyond helpful and attentive. I truly feel that Eric has my best interests at top of mind when it comes to navigating contracts. Not only has Eric made the new job easy to adjust to, but he has let it be known every step of the way that he is there for his nurses when they need him! If you are interested at all in traveling as a nurse, please ask for Eric. I look forward to continuing my successful journey with him and everyone I have been connected with at Care Team Solutions!

About

Two brothers who give an enormous damn.


We're Justin and Kyle. Neither of us are nurses. It doesn’t take a nurse to

see that the way travel nurses are treated sucks.


Nursing is already hard enough. Travel nursing takes serious guts. You get the toughest assignments

in places you’ve never been. Which can be fun, but it’s also stressful. You’re

in your element but outside of your hometown. You can be a stranger on the

team. 


If anyone deserves someone in their corner, it’s

you. 


But that’s not how most agencies operate. Which is why travel nurses hate working with them. We got into this

business because we saw bucket-loads of nurses moving through the "churn

and burn" travel machinery. We absolutely hate that. 


You'll do your best work when you have the placements you want and feel fully supported in

your work. 


We pay our people well because we want them to

treat you well.


Our recruiters are amazing (we picked each of them

ourselves), but if you've got a problem too big for them, they can come

straight to us.

We

work like ten feet away.


The "Churners and Burners" promise you

the same benefits. They might as well copy/paste them from each other. We have

them too:  

  • 401k, holiday pay, healthcare, dental, travel
  • reimbursement, etc

But we've worked hard for you to enjoy some one-of-a-kind

benefits

you'll not likely find anywhere else, because they benefit you more than they

benefit us:

  • Our early pay program
  • Student loan reimbursement
  • Free well-being tele-visits with a psychologist
