FAQs – Med Surg Travel Nurse Jobs Near Birmingham, AL

What certifications are required for Med Surg travel nursing jobs?
Med Surg travel nursing jobs require current BLS certification, and some units also require ACLS. Confirm the facility’s requirements with your recruiter.
How much experience do I need for a Med Surg travel nursing assignment?
Many facilities look for at least one to two years of recent Med Surg experience for travel positions. You should be comfortable managing multiple patients, prioritizing care, and handling admissions and discharges. Requirements vary by facility, and some units may also expect telemetry experience.
Must I hold my own Alabama license for this travel assignment?
No—Alabama recognizes Nurse Licensure Compact privilege, so an active multistate RN license is all you need. If you apply by endorsement, eligible applicants may receive Alabama’s one-time, nonrenewable temporary permit while permanent licensure is completed—so plan its timing carefully. Our Alabama Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.

Alabama's only ACS-verified Level I adult trauma center, re-verified in 2025, UAB Hospital is a 1,207-bed academic medical center with a deep, high-acuity case mix across nearly every specialty.
UAB Hospital is the only Magnet-designated hospital in Alabama — what does that mean for travel nurses?
Its ANCC Magnet recognition signals a strong nursing environment at the state's leading academic referral center.

Explore Birmingham, AL

In the middle of a region rich in history and culture, Birmingham, AL runs a broad hospital network. Recurring coverage keeps travelers in the ICU and medical-surgical units across the metro, with UAB Hospital and Grandview Medical Center among the systems carrying that work. Contracts extend into Hoover, Homewood, and Vestavia Hills, all leafy suburbs south of downtown, and the central interstates tie those communities to the main medical districts for workable commutes. RNs often walk through Railroad Park to decompress between shifts. The interstate spokes are the practical key here, since picking a suburb on the right one can cut a daily drive in half across the spread-out metro.
