FAQs – Operating Room Travel Nurse Jobs Near Allentown, PA
What certifications do travel OR jobs require?
Most travel OR positions require Basic Life Support (BLS), and many hospitals also require Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS). CNOR is preferred by many facilities but required by only a few. Pediatric ORs may ask for PALS.
What recent OR experience is required for travel OR nurse jobs?
Most OR travel jobs expect confidence in general and orthopedic cases plus several additional service lines such as neuro, spine, urology, GYN, vascular, or ENT. Robotic experience is also commonly requested. Facilities may ask for a service-line skills checklist, so be specific about the cases you have circulated or scrubbed recently.
Do travel OR jobs include call?
Often, yes. Hospital OR assignments commonly include evening, overnight, or weekend call, while outpatient surgery centers are less likely to. Call frequency, required response time, and call pay vary by facility, so confirm all three before you accept.
Is Pennsylvania a compact state for this travel assignment?
Yes—and recently so: Pennsylvania fully implemented the Nurse Licensure Compact in July 2025, so an active multistate RN license now covers Pennsylvania assignments. Nurses applying for a Pennsylvania license complete FBI fingerprinting through IdentoGO using the service code provided during the application; applicants seeking a Pennsylvania multistate license must also complete an additional criminal-history check. Confirm current fees, requirements, and application steps with the Pennsylvania State Board of Nursing.

Explore Allentown, PA
The Lehigh Valley's hospital landscape centers on Allentown, PA, a market grown into one of Pennsylvania's busier healthcare corridors that pulls travel nurses across emergency, telemetry, and intensive care assignments. The valley operates as one connected market; Bethlehem and Easton sit minutes east, so a single rental covers contracts across all three cities. Most travelers find housing well below Philadelphia and New York, both close enough for weekends, which is exactly the arbitrage many travelers come for. The restored downtown around the minor-league arena has filled in with restaurants over the past decade. Dorney Park's coasters handle summer days off, and the Allentown Art Museum holds a deeper collection than first-time visitors expect.
