Your travel healthcare agency isn’t just a middleman- It’s your lifeline. The right one gets you placed faster, pays you right, and supports you every step of the way. The wrong one? Delayed credentials, vague paychecks, and radio silence when something goes wrong. We’ll pass.
Let’s break down what you should be looking for, and why FlexCare checks all the boxes.
What to Check | What It Really Means | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
Assignment Variety | Lots of specialties, locations, and contract lengths | You don’t want to feel stuck. Variety doesn’t mean flexibility |
Clear Pay Breakdown | Rates, stipends, bonuses are all in writing | No hidden math, no ugly surprises |
Licensing Know-How | A team that actually helps you get licensed, fast | More licenses = more options = faster job starts |
24/7 Support | Real people, not bots, when you need help | Because shift issues don’t only happen 9-5 |
Strong Reputation | Certifications, real reviews, and industry rankings | If other travelers trust them, that’s a green flag |
Flexible Housing | Agency help, stipend, or combo options | You deserve a setup that fits your lifestyle |
Cancellation Backups | A clear plan for if something falls through | No one wants to scramble if a contract gets pulled |
