I’m not sure how true this is. There’s always been a shortage of medical professional prior to Covid. Covid just exacerbated things x10. I highly doubt there was some increase in nurses in the last few years to cover the shortage. Also this economy is weird. I work for a govt agency and we recently had our return to work posture. Yet despite all the “tech industry layoff” fears and inflation fears there’s a mass amount of ppl that have just been quitting because they don’t want to come back to office.The days of those big travel contracts are over from what I've heard.

Gotta file state returns in every state one works that has a state tax. Some cities like NY have a local tax, too.
CRNA programs are 3 years of no working. All school and it isn’t a bunch of them so it’s competitive. Life choices.

They are. One of my broads does recruiting for an agency that sends out nothing but traveling healthcare workers and she stay complaining how much shyt has slowed down since the beginning of 2022. She was making a killing during the pandemic.The days of those big travel contracts are over from what I've heard.
Tell her, all the COVID money from the government is gone. Sucks for the new nurses like my wife. However, there are still more prosperous opportunities in traveling than full-time shifts.
Got a boy from highschool who bought a crib straight out his mom's house as a nurse. Men sleep on the job. Plus he gets so much ass. Helps that he was a personal trainer for a minute and is in a profession surrounded by women.
With that said shift work isn't easy.

Didn’t watch. I’m a Travel nurse. I wonder how much he’s on track to make this year? I made the same amount of money last year; however, my pay rate now is as low as $75/hr and it could drop.
Travel nursing alone will not make you rich.

Travel nursing is usually temporary. You’ll eventually get burned out. Im an RN and Those Covid checks were spectacular. But those crazy high paying travel assignments dried up.
Man nurses clean up on other nurses Breh. More than doctors.Someone told me about this but I can't be a man nurse.
Salute to breh, though.
With that being said I couldn’t do that shyt either.
My home girl was a traveling nurse. Did a few assignments over 3 years. With her last assignment being in Boston where she grew up, she pocketed the living expenses and stayed with her parents.
She thought she would be doing it forever. Everyone was jealous when she landed Hawaii. but shyt grew ole and tired.
It was crazy because even travel LPNs, CNAs and pharm techs were making crazy $$$$ relative to their normal salaries.
I talking some as much as $25-$35/hour.
Mind you many of them were only getting like 12-15 an hour(LPNs around $18-$20) right before the pandemic, so that was borderline life changing money.

Carolina hail to thee....
Unless you're doing specialized nursing, you're perfectly fine anywhere with an ASN....Yeah I ain't go through the article, but legitimate nurses these days need a Bachelor's degree minimum to start off as a nurse. The courses are hard and the programs are very selective.
That said, 9 months a year? 3 months off? Imagine the countries you can visit. I'm happy for the breh.
