Hey BIrd:
I'm not really sure what your asking.

If you are a licensed RN or LPN then you know what to do. If not, are
you asking for a friend or contemplating a new career?

The RNs I know who do the "traveling nurse" thing really enjoy it.
There are several agencies/companies that hire traveling nurses. Each
offer a diffrent benefit package. Some have excellent health and lower
wage and others just the opposite. For example, an RN with 5+ years
experience your looking in the ball park of $40/hr with all travel,
health, lodging paid. Deployments can range from 3 weeks to 4 months
depending on agency.

Check any of the nurse trade magazines. Nurses get a couple titles free
if license is current. Ask one. Or go to a large library or college
with a nursing program and check the library. The agencies advertise in
the mags. For example, RN Magazine.

Do a goggle search. Each agency has a website// ( or was that /// to
end a message.)
