Texas Travel Nursing Jobs Reign Supreme in Lone Star State

  BOCA RATON, FL, Aug 05 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
With Texas hospitals ranking among U.S. News and World Report best
hospitals every year and advanced medical technologies in the state
laying a foundation for quality travel nurse job work environments, Texas
travel nurse jobs have made their way to top of the preferred travel
nursing list.

    "Quality of life and lifestyle opportunities are a major component of
travel nursing," said Robert L. Bok, CEO for The Joint Commission
certified 50 States Staffing, the nation's largest independent travel
nursing company. "Cities like Austin consistently rank on lists of best
places to live, work and play and the cost of living in Dallas, Houston
and other Texas communities is below the national average. Annual
earnings for Texas travel nursing jobs can exceed $85,000 with pay and
benefits."

    Travel nurse staffing experts say more and more nurses are considering
economic factors, such as cost of living, when choosing a travel nursing
destination. Texas is home to one of the largest faith-based, nonprofit
healthcare delivery systems in the United States, with travel nurse pay
high and the cost of living low, leaving nurses more disposable income to
enjoy their surroundings and contribute to their 401(k).

    "In addition to free private housing, free continuing education, full
health benefits and bonuses, 50 States Staffing provides for a generous,
company-matched 401(k), affording nurses a platform for retirement," said
Bok. "Between earnings and benefits, Texas travel nursing jobs can pay as
much as $90,000 annualized."

    "More practitioners entering the profession have been asking about Texas
nurse jobs in cities with easy access to the Rio Grande and Mexico," said
Deborah Bacurin of 50 States Staffing, adding that "beautiful Gulf Coast
towns like Galveston and Corpus Christi are no longer 'best kept secrets'
among seasoned travel nurses."

    "Texas travel nursing jobs will be hot for a while," says Hospital
Marketing Director, Dennis Urbanski. "Healthcare and high-tech are
propelling economies around the state and 50 States Staffing's access to
top-ranked hospitals and outpatient centers is bar none. The pay is high
and the benefits and housing great for Texas travel nurses."

health professional, 50 States Staffing may have a high paying Texas
travel nurse job for you. For more information call 800-996-2206 or apply
