WHY TRY TRAVEL NURSING?
Travel nurses say: “You can move every 13 weeks and find your perfect job or your special place without damaging your employment record because travel nursing is acceptable, while just job-hopping makes it look like something’s wrong.” “A year or more of travel nurse experience makes you much more valuable to a future employer.” “During and after travel nursing, you get offered supervisory positions because of your varied experience and because you’ve proven that you’re flexible and adaptable and have clinical expertise.” “You can do a great job search without having to pay moving costs and losing money while you look for a job.” “When you have a company like CMSI behind you, travel nursing is a great experience.” “When my husband was laid off, we used travel nursing to find him a new place to work! It was the cheapest and most financially rewarding way to move until he was satisfied, too.” “It’s a great way to see the country and learn how other nurses work in different environments.” “Security and adventure, too! I could travel all over the country and get instant help from my CMSI managers! That gave me the courage to branch out, professionally and personally.”
Why travel with CMSI? More and better services! Hospitals are basically the same, all over the country. They all have patients and families, staff and supervisors, doctors, pharmacies, and all the other things you’re familiar with, including the usual problems. You’ll probably have many trouble-free assignments with CMSI’s help, but when you do run into a problem, you’ll have the best support system available - you’ll have CMSI. Most of the travel agencies are basically the same, too, but CMSI is the only management company in the industry. We have a group of expert managers whose specialized skills ensure that we can meet your needs and the needs of the hospital. Like you, we’re professionals. Because of CMSI’s management expertise, we do things nobody else can, and what everybody else does, we do better! That’s why so many of our competitors try to copy us. Read on to sample a few of the many reasons why you’ll want to travel with CMSI.-The Travel Nurse Company™
24-HOUR SUPPORT
from a CMSI Vice President and support staff. When you’re on assignment and you need help, you need to be able to reach somebody who can actually do something about your problem, whether it’s money, or help with red tape at work, or car trouble, or whatever. If you have an urgent problem, you may not be able to wait until business hours, and your ordinary travel company recruiter may not have the expertise to handle your problem. With CMSI, you have 24-hour direct line and toll-free pager access to a Vice President who has the authority, experience and staff to handle your problem; and that Vice President can mobilize a world of special services, such as Accounting, Legal Support/Liability Management, Clinical Consultants, and other resources, to help you. We’ll always be here for you!
Local Bank
CMSI pays you with a local check so you don’t have to wait for your cash. When your travel company pays RNs with out-of-town checks, it means you have to wait for your money to clear their bank and yours (5-7 days) before you can actually use it, or you have to use expensive check-cashing services who frequently won’t cash a check if you don’t have a local driver’s license. With CMSI you never have those problems because you can cash your check without a fee at a CMSI bank in the same town your assignment’s in!
Free accounting services,
including record-keeping and information services for tax purposes, and third-party payments. We also provide you with a CPA’s study guide and referrals to help you get all of the tax breaks you’ve got coming - and there are a lot of them! Our free monthly scheduler allows you to keep track of your schedule, but it also comes in very handy for keeping track of special deductions and other tax records. You won’t get the full benefit of working as a professional travel nurse until you start taking advantage of the tax breaks, and we’ll help make it easy for you do that.
The most favorable tax status in travel nursing - IRS approved!
You’ll hear all kinds of things about pay rates and tax status from travel nurse agencies. They’ll offer you special tax advantage programs, exotic benefits, and other items dreamed up to compete with CMSI’s tax status benefits - but nothing matches CMSI’s program. With us, you have the same tax benefits that doctors, lawyers, and big corporations enjoy. You’ll take home the most money and pay the least tax because of the business deductions you get with us that you can’t get with the employee-based companies - no matter what they offer. We’ll provide special information to help you maximize the benefits of this status, too. And, unlike those special tax advantage programs they offer, our status has been reviewed and approved by the IRS. Take a close look at CMSI’s True Tax Advantage Plan™ .
