“ Trustaff has been an amazing company so far for me. I went with them when I first started travel nursing and extended several times with my first contract. I’m on my second contract now, which has also been extended. No issues and would highly recommend them to nursing friends. My recruiter is amazing and is always responsive to questions or concerns quickly, as well as providing updates and who to contact if he will not be available. Could not recommend a better company! ”

Asked Questions
01. To be considered as a healthcare traveler, be sure your licenses and certifications up to date. The required licenses may vary depending on the state in which you work a travel assignment. While not always required, you’ll have a leg up if you have 2-years of on-the-job experience.

At LRS Healthcare, our recruiters take pride in listening to your requests and finding you the best CNA travel job that not only pays well but is in a city that matches your interests.
03. To put it simply, pay packages vary by job, facility, and agency.

To ensure accuracy, your LRS Healthcare recruiter will outline your personalized pay package, so you know what to expect on your weekly paystub
04. A standard travel nurse assignment is 13 weeks; however, long-term care facilities tend to have a bit more flexibility when it comes to CNA contracts.
