Whether you’re sailing in Iowa, viewing the sunset from helicopter pad on the
top of a hospital in Arizona, gazing at covered bridges in Vermont, or taking a
long walk on the beach in Florida, travel nursing is an excellent way to get
paid while exploring the United States.
Although Highway Hypodermics: Your Road Map To Travel Nursing was written in
2005 with some great information about travel nursing, the next edition, Highway
Hypodermics: Travel Nursing 2007, brings expanded knowledge about the field of
travel nursing.
Not only do you get the basics of traveling, but additional information is
provided on the rewards and drawbacks of travel nursing and making the decision
to travel, expanded knowledge on what travel companies are all about and how to
choose the right one, all about JCAHO certification, which destinations are the
best and how to choose a destination, information on traveling in a recreational
vehicle, home-schooling your child while on the road, and additional information
on licensing requirements, not to mention all you would ever need to know about
travel nursing and your taxes.
Stop dreaming about travel nursing, and step into reality with Highway
Hypodermics: Travel Nursing 2007. Epstein’s work in progress is set to be
published by
Star Publish in January
2007.
"I
LOVED your book. Read it over the weekend. I particularly thought that
these sections were extremely valuable for travelers:
Politics
What it takes..
Tax Info
Homeschooling
…all the questions that
even experienced travelers want answers to. YOU GO, GAL!! Great job!"
Greg Allen, Cirrus Medical

Epstein...
YES I read the ENTIRE book and I thought that you did a GREAT job on the
ins and outs of being a traveler and I love how you went into a little
detail about how travelers are often given the more difficult assignments
and are treated differently in some locations because everyone thinks we
make sooo much more money than they do! It was a great way to throw much
needed light on a topic that often discourages new travelers. It was
AWESOME...as always!
Half-Pint, RN, Travel Nurse
"I
am a huge fan! Highway Hypodermics is required reading in our
office."

My first
impression was I liked the more in depth reviews of travel companies, which is
helpful to gaining a knowledge of what the different companies offer. I also
believe there is no perfect travel company, but each nurse can benefit by doing
their homework in Highway Hypodermics to determine which company best fits them.
Like in all of life, it is very hard to have a company that is tops in pay,
service and benefits. Each nurse needs to determine which is most important to
them and find the company that best delivers that need.
I do agree that a
good recruiter needs to know their nurse's strengths, likes and desires. And a
pro-active recruiter is always a benefit to all involved.
Thanks for what
you do for the industry. Your service is helpful to all of us involved in it.
