The short version

How to use this directory


Travel nursing runs on agencies, and there are hundreds of them. Pay packages, housing stipends, and recruiter quality differ a lot. Most nurses work with two or three agencies to compare contracts.

Use the state pages to find agencies headquartered near you or licensed for a state you want to work in. Use the categories for housing providers and tax specialists who understand stipends and tax homes.

This site does not rank agencies by pay or reviews. It lists who exists, what they do, and where to learn more. Ask recruiters for a full pay breakdown before you sign.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How are agencies verified?

Each agency came from a public source such as an accreditation list or the agency's own website, confirmed live when listed. We do not verify pay, reviews, or licensing status.

Do agencies pay to be listed?

No. Basic listings are free. Featured placements, if offered, are labeled. Rankings reflect how complete a listing is.

Can I list my agency or housing?

Yes. Use the Add a listing form. A human reviews every submission.

Is this career or tax advice?

No. This is a directory. Talk to a licensed tax professional about tax homes and stipends.
