California Nurse Licensing Requirements - ATTN: Travel Nurses!

2009-09-30T06:37:00.000-07:00

September 29, 2009 in Industry News

The state of California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN) has introduced new licensure regulations which prohibit temporary or interim permits until fingerprint processing by the Department of Justice (DOJ) has been completed. The new requirements, which went into effect on August 10, 2009, require nurses to become fingerprinted prior to obtaining a nursing license. Applicants can no longer “walk thru” the BRN to receive their license (exam or endorsement) unless their fingerprints have already been processed by the DOJ. The BRN will now submit all fingerprints to the DOJ or FBI either by live scan or an actual paper fingerprint card. Processing time can take up to 4-6 weeks under the new regulations, which also include the office being closed the first three Fridays of each month.

Nurses will need to take this into consideration when wanting to travel to California for a travel nurse assignment and will not be able to walk thru like before to get a temporary nursing license. Plan early and have a leg up on your fellow travel nurses that dont take this new requirement into consideration! Call StaffingMedical USA at 877.280.2600 or email support@staffingmedical.com for expanding nurse travel positions in California and elsewhere in the USA.

Just received word that we need to be ready to staff hundreds of RN's throughout the winter starting 12/1/2009 all specialities. The big catch here for the nurses is that you NEED to have a California nursing license in hand to get an interview. So if you already have one, you have a good chance of getting a travel nurse assignment this year. If not, get the process started NOW and you will be ready to go come December. Call us for more information at 877-280-2600 or email support@staffingmedical.com.

Healthcare still adding jobs!

2009-08-13T13:47:00.000-07:00

Compared to the rest of the economy, the health care industry appears to be in pretty good shape. Over the past year, nearly 6 million Americans lost their jobs, but health care added about 300,000 positions for a total of 13.6 million jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. From June to July 2009, the number of healthcare workers rose by nearly 20,000. They broke down like this:

• Ambulatory care services, 9,600
• Physician offices, 6,200
• Home health services, 3,600
• Hospitals, 4,200 - Many are travel nurse positions!
• Nursing and residential care facilities, 5,800

However, this might well be the calm before the storm. If healthcare reform legislation strips hundreds of billions of dollars from Medicare and Medicaid over the next decade, the net increase in health care employment could turn into a net decline. On the other hand, if the legislation shifts money from government programs to subsidies for people to buy private insurance, the net effect might be neutral, at least in the short run.

At this point, the outcome of the reform debate in Washington is still unknown. Nearly anything can happen in the next several months. But as Gail Wilensky, a former CMS administrator, pointed out on the “Lehrer News Hour” on PBS the other night, legislators will need very rapid savings to pay for reform, unless they want to raise taxes more than they have proposed. Wilensky favors a more gradual approach in which Medicare is restructured over time to save money, rather than a sudden cutback in the rate of growth. But with Medicare expected to go broke within the next decade, and with more and more people losing private insurance, we don’t have much time left.

If you would like to receive information on travel nurse jobs, plase call SMUSA at 877-280-2600 or email support@staffingmedical.com.

New California Travel RN Licensure Process

2009-08-11T11:07:00.000-07:00

just an update for all travel nurses that will be going to California for a ttavel nurse job this Fall and Winter. Its no longer accepting the 1 or 2 day walk-through process. please read carefully below:

1. The nurse may provide electronic fingerprints at any Livescan location in the sate of California (http://www.ag.ca.gov/fingerprints/publications/contact.php ). Once the nurse provides the fingerprints the board will receive completed background information, usually within 3 business days.

2. The California Nursing Board has set up an automated system so that the nurse or employer can call to verify that the background check results have been received.

3. Once the background results are received, the nurse can go to the board to complete the walk thru process as normal. The nurse, if compliant with board requirements, will leave that same day with a temporary permit.

4. Nurses who have a license that was issued before March of 1990 and need to renew or reactive their license will need to complete the fingerprinting process to receive their renewed license as well.

5. For nurses who live outside of the state or want to start the process early, these nurses need to be provided with a California fingerprint card. California calls this the “Hard Card”. These “Hard Cards” can be taken to local police offices for completion and submission. Be advised, this process can take 6 to 8 weeks for completion, again the automated system for the California Board will advise if the background results have returned. The nurse can then complete the licensure process with the state.
Hope this information helps and if you have any questions reagrding travel nursing or travel nurse jobs in California or in the USA, please call us at 877-280-2600 or email at support@staffingmedical.com

Travel Nursing - Is it for you?

2009-05-18T10:16:00.000-07:00

Nurses have decided that working every day at a hospital can become very routine. Their time and talents are very valuable and worthwhile to those that employ them. Travel nursing jobs give the nurse better opportunities. StaffingMedical USA Inc. often will coordinate with facilities that are seeking a travel nurse with certain qualifications to come work for them for a set amount of time. These positions are often to be found in such places as the ICU or even Neonatal areas. These positions sometimes become vacant for a short time due to staffing issues or even vacations. Right now, we are even seeing case management in large demand in the Southwest.

When a facility loses a staff member due to retirement or even budget cuts they can not immediately refill the position. Utilizing a traveling nurse solves the staffing problem for 8 to 13 weeks with sometimes an option to renew. This also keeps a new set of alert eyes in that area that may notice things that someone used to day to day routine might miss.

Travel nursing can be found in many locations but right now the hot areas seem to be California and New Mexico. These locations give the traveling nurse new exciting places to see, wonderful experiences and new friends. For the person that loves to travel but often can not due to a job, home, these issues do not rarely effect the traveling nurse since his or her job involves travel. These jobs provide that travel and the nurse provides a vital service for his or her current employer.

Want to get a Travel Nursing Job? Get your State License

2009-04-20T13:43:00.000-07:00

As I see the job orders coming in, I also see a trend that many travel nurses need to understand. If you want to be a travel nurse, get the license right away in the state that you would like to travel to. Its very likely once a job opens that a hospital will select a travel nurse with the appropriate state license over one that needs to get the nursing license for that particular state.

In previous years, this wasn't the case as jobs were more plentiful and hospitals would wait for the applicants to get their license or push out a start date for their travel nurse assignment. Not anymore! Again, I cant stress how competitive it is for jobs and having the nursing license for your state of travel will give you one leg up on the competition!

Call StaffingMedical USA for expanding opportunities at 877.280.2600 and see if we have what you are looking for in a travel nurse job. If email is better, support@staffingmedical.com is the email address you have been looking for!

Travel Nursing Jobs - Can it be a Career??

2009-04-17T08:04:00.000-07:00

Travel Nursing Jobs will be a career choice for many Nurses because these jobs will be abundant in the future and the the long term outlook looks very promising. Imagine working with people to help them get better and make back to the life they had before they entered the hospital. A Nurse will make a huge difference in one’s life when you take Travel Nursing Jobs. Because the hours are flexible you will find that the Travel Nursing Positions will fit well around your life as the pay is great, the chance to see the USA, and the freedoms had with this career. All this and with benefits, too. One can also be assured that if you need a job in the future that there will be plenty of these to pick from. That can make the difference in whether or not someone feels comfortable in their career choice. If this important to you then this field is the one to get into now and in the future. It will be the best choice that you can make.

If this sounds like a career you may want to look into, calling all Nurses to call StaffingMedical USA at 877-280-2600 or email support@staffingmedical.com for further questions and open travel nurse jobs that are open.

Nevada Travel Nurses Needed

Call 877-280-2600 for more information on out travel nurse openings in Nevada or for other positions currently open.

Why Travel Nursing? Here's 4 reasons to think about

2009-04-13T14:34:00.000-07:00

Being a travel nurse offers a nurse many options from higher pay to being able to be mobile and experience different areas of the USA. Travel nursing may not be for everyone as many nurses like to stay in one place or have the same routine day after day. Let us look at the positives and negatives of travel nursing jobs.
Rewards

1. Free housing (or upgrade for a small fee)
When you work with a travel nursing company, your housing needs will be taken care of at no additional charge unless you opt for a 2 bd unit or 5 star property. Most accommodations are near the work area, and are fully furnished. What is more, you are provided a housing allowance should you decide to take your own accommodation.

2. Compensation
The pay is pretty darn good when compared to regular FTE nurses. LOcation and speciality are 2 big factors that will affect your pay rates. I have found it beneficial for Northern nurses escape the cold in winter and spring and go to California, Arizona, and Florida to keep warm for their travel nurse assignments. The perks and bonuses can add to your compensation package as well making travel nursing very lucrative if done right!

3. Travel Destinations
Many nurses specialize in travel nursing because they love traveling. However, if you are planning to go to a place that is high on the wish list of every travel nurse like Hawaii, you may have to take a lower pay rate. However, a nurse in these trying times is better off taking an assignment where he or she is needed than being overly picky about destination.

4. Are you Ready Now?
You will always be at the call of your recruiter, and you must be ready to travel if a position opens up. Again, jobs are not as plentiful as once they were so its important to have paperwork up to dat and a willingness to take off when called upon.
Now that you know the pros and cons of being a travel nurse, you can think about your career options. If you have what it takes - welcome to the world of travel nursing!

As you can see, nursing or travel nursing can be a hot job these days. If you are open to going to locations and have an open mind, one can make a great financial decision. There is a high demand for nurses across the United States because of increasing population and the increasing number of people reaching old age. If you love to provide such service, you need to choose the best travel nurse agency which offers the best travel nurses benefits and has the best recruiters. I cant stress enough how important the travel nurse - recruiter relationship is. Make sure you feel very comfortable with a recruiter before taking a travel nurse assignment as this will be your point of contact while on assignment.

As a travel RN, you get the same benefits that regular nurses get plus other interesting benefits and perks such as bonuses (in certain situations), travel, insurance and housing at little or no cost to you. Travel nurses get to enjoy a lot of benefits aside from the regular nursing position due to the risks involved. However, these risks far outweigh its benefits.

As a travel nurse, you will be able to explore new places and manage your time. Consider this exciting career and make a difference in the locations in the United States that need you.

Travel Nurse Tips and Questions

2009-03-20T11:51:00.001-07:00

Many travel nursing assignments are super, but there are those that don’t go so great as well. While there are steps you should take when this bad things or unfortunate circumstances happen to you, one should contact their company and recruiter right away. Here are some steps a travel nurse can take right away before an assignment commences to help one avoid a bad experience with travel nurse housing questions.

Travel Nurse Housing Issues and Questions To Ask:

Is housing furnished?

Do you get a stipend if you get your own housing?

Are utilities paid? Up to how much do they pay? Which Utilities are not paid for?

What kind of housing do you offer? Is it private or shared?

Can I upgrade to 2 or 3 bedroom apartment?

Can I have Pets?

How close is your housing to the hospital?

Does the travel nursing assignment allow me to bring my spouse or significant other, children, pets) Are there charges if I do?

Do you have a nurse housing division or corporate housing division that I can call for any reasons?

Is there a housing package for things such as the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom?

Does the housing you offer come with washer and dryers? If so where is it located?

How much sooner than my assignment start and end date am I allowed to move in and out?

Does the housing I am offered come with A/C and/or heat or would I have to find a way to take care of those needs myself?

Am I able to know the actual square feet of my apartment before and also see an exact layout of where the rooms are located to make sure the sq. ft. is right for me?

Do you offer an extended stay option or other hotel options?

I hope this helps a little bit and enjoy the tips when dealing with housing on a travel nurse assignment.

Travelers - We work for you!

2009-01-30T09:29:00.000-08:00

Many Travel Nurses and therapists feel that many times a company or their recruiter is not offering the highest pay that we can to you. NOT TRUE at SMUSA. We always shoot it to you straight from the start and offer you the highest pay possible and believe me, we like to keep our hospitals and clinics happy by filling their positions. While many other companies do employ this tactic, SMUSA does not and will not. I have heard and seen so many times a nurse or allied professional hold out for higher pay only to lose the assignment to anther due to waiting to long to jump on an opportunity. Believe me, jobs are hard to come by right now so don't wait and potentially lose out. We are working for you 24/7 and always will. Without you pros out there we would all be looking for new jobs too!

Happy Holidays from StaffingMedicalUSA!

Wishing all you Nurses out there Happy and SAFE travels this Holiday season. Look forward to chatting and blogging with you on this upcoming exciting year in travel nursing - I can see new job openings coming in for the New Year and into Feb. so BE READY!!!!

Cheers - Benjamin

Jobs right now - Where are they???!!

2008-12-10T06:42:00.001-08:00

From my sources, the bulk of travel nurse jobs seem to be in Texas, California, and New Mexico markets. All specialities are open! Contact support@staffingmedical.com for more info on specifics.

We are anticipating many openings in Arizona and Florida and more than likely Colorado in January once Obama takes over. Many reasons for it but hospital budgets open up in January and I believe the consumer confidence will be much stronger once the new admin. takes over!

Happy Travels and be safe!
