- Basic Life Support (BLS)
- Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS)
- CNOR (preferred or required for many roles)
Will I need experience with specific surgical cases for this OR assignment?
Most travel OR jobs look for recent perioperative experience in the role listed, such as circulating or scrubbing. Required experience may also depend on the facility’s surgical specialties, case types, equipment, and call expectations.

Will my multistate nursing license cover this California travel assignment?
No—California is not a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so a multistate license from another state doesn’t authorize practice here; you’ll need an active California RN license. Apply for licensure by endorsement through the California Board of Registered Nursing and plan ahead—eligible endorsement applicants may also apply for a temporary license while the permanent application is pending. Our California Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.

Explore Arcata, CA
On California's far north coast, Arcata, CA pairs a college-town center with a working shoreline, and travel contracts here connect to a small regional care network. Most assignments involve medical-surgical and emergency coverage shared across the Humboldt Bay communities, with Eureka ten minutes south carrying the bulk of the area's hospital infrastructure. McKinleyville and Fortuna add housing options along the corridor, useful since rentals near the Plaza fill with students each fall. Coastal fog is a real commute factor; nurses driving early shifts learn to add a few minutes on gray mornings. The Arcata Marsh trails sit at the edge of town for an after-shift walk, and the Plaza's shops and eateries cover most everyday needs.
