How do I become a Traveler with Medical Solutions?
Simply apply here. You can also call us at 1.866.633.3548 and speak with a recruiter, who can answer your questions and send you an information packet. All we need to begin is your application and resume. Once we receive your information, we can begin discussing potential assignments that fit your profile. When you find a job you want, your recruiter will submit you for the job and walk you through the process from there.
How long are travel healthcare assignments?
Most assignments are 13 weeks in length, but we’ve seen them as short as four weeks and as long as 24. You are obligated to finish your assignment as contracted, but there is no contract binding you to work more assignments afterward. You can take a new assignment right after your last or take a break. It’s all up to you!
What about state licensing?
Many states are in the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC), which allows you reciprocal rights to practice in compact states. If you need to obtain a new state license, your Recruiter can tell you exactly how much time is necessary to apply for it and the cost. If a new license is required for your assignment, Medical Solutions will reimburse you for the cost!
All about Hawaii Travel Nursing
Hawaii is a wonderful choice for travel nursing because of the abundance of exciting things to do and see on your days off, as well as the access to travel healthcare career opportunities at a variety of facilities.
According to U.S. News & World Report’s 2020/2021 Best Hospitals list, Hawaii is home to 27 hospitals, including Queen’s Medical Center in Honolulu — which is ranked #1 in the state. Additionally, there are many other non-hospital healthcare facilities throughout the islands. U.S. News & World Report’s 2021 Best States list ranked Hawaii at #25 overall and #1 for both healthcare and natural environment. Sounds like the perfect place to work in healthcare and explore nature!
Hawaii is not currently in the Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) but new states are frequently joining so keep an eye on the latest NLC map. The NLC allows nurses to practice in other NLC states without having to get additional state licenses. In the meantime, our team is happy to help you with any Hawaii state licensing questions.

What is a Permanent Nurse?
A permanent nurse, also known as a staff nurse, is an RN who works full-time at a healthcare facility instead of taking on various travel nurse jobs. While travel nursing allows you to see new cities and make an impact on patient care in communities all over the nation, staff nurse jobs can give you a little more stability, allowing you to plant down roots to grow in your specialty and advance upward in your career within a single facility.
If you’re interested in permanent placements, working with an agency like Medical Solutions will ensure you make the most out of your career. Apply now and let the best recruiters in the industry help you find your ideal role among hundreds of exclusive perm RN jobs at top U.S. hospitals.
