What is your favorite thing about travel nursing (the experience, locations, training, etc.)?

My favorite thing about travel nursing is the satisfaction I feel daily after a day of work. When a travel nurse is needed, it is usually at a point where the requesting facility has exhausted every effort to find a nurse/ Going in, I bring much needed help and support for the staff, and most importantly the patients. I walk into a facility with the questions “how, where and what can I do to help out.” It is rewarding in every aspect.
