Traditional travel nursing got you down?  Long term assignments with weeks on end away from family can definitely be more than you bargained for.  Working as a Medical Coverage Nurse may be just the thing for you.  Unlike other assignments in travel nursing, we are not looking for a short term assignment far away from your home, but rather a dedicated nursing professional who would like a career in providing Team support on a Full Time basis (at least 36 hrs per week) to jails and detention centers nearest you.  Be home with your family a few nights a week while also going new places and seeing new faces.

All potential applicants are encouraged to scroll through and read the complete job description before applying.
