- Reason #3: Travel nurse jobs are available in hospitals, outpatient centers, patients’ homes and Rehab facilities; and therefore mastery of many different skills in diverse settings are of utmost importance.
- Reason #4: Health IT is changing the healthcare landscape for travel nurses and permanent healthcare staff alike; without critical thinking it’s hard to learn to operate new technologies.
- Reason #5: Critical thinking skills help travel nurses take advantage of career resources and continuing education credits that put them on track to awesome job benefits and six-figure income.
