Proposal:

The “Travel Nursing” article on Wikipedia is lacking information about everything regarding travel nursing. It is a C-class article. After reading the original article, I researched some more details that could be added and I planned to add information about pay, assignment, and requirements, to the current article. To be more specific, I planned to add more information to pay, while the current article gives some details, there could be more added. Next, for assignment the original article did not have much knowledge regarding the travel nursing assignment, I found some information that will be added to make it more informative. Then, I planned to add to requirements, which meant education status and what had to be completed before becoming a travel nurse. Lastly, Covid 19, I wanted to add more information to this part of the article, the article described the importance but there could be more added.

Article body

Pay:

Adding: When becoming a travel nurse comes with the thought around the pay. Travel nurses are paid by the agency that they work for. An article included distinct reasons as to how to make the post money as a travel nurse, these included rapid response and “crisis” assignment, more specifically nurses being needed to help after natural disasters, they can work between 36 to 48 hours (about 2 days) per week with over time included. Another thing to be added is bonuses, hospital bonuses range from $250-$5000.

Assignment:

Adding: Travel nurses can travel and work all around, and they can even travel abroad. To add to that, is that staffing agencies would help assist nurses get passports and work visas for international jobs. Places travel nurses could be assigned included hospitals, clinics, community health center, private practices, rehabilitation facilities, and nursing homes.

Requirements:

Adding: To become a travel nurse they must have credentials. These included that to become a travel nurse, it is necessary to have graduated from an accredited nursing program, hold a license, and have at least one year of clinical experience.
