Click “I’m Interested” to connect with a recruiter about assignment-specific requirements.
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 Johnstown, PA
Steel built Johnstown, PA, and the city's healthcare system now stands as one of its central employers, serving valley communities folded into the western Pennsylvania mountains. Open contracts here center on emergency and medical-surgical work, with a patient base shaped by an older, settled population. Rental costs land among the gentlest in the state; a traveler's stipend stretches remarkably far here. The famous inclined plane climbs from downtown to the ridge above, a working relic of the flood era that locals still ride. The Flood City Music Festival fills the riverfront each summer. Trail systems thread the surrounding ridges, and Pittsburgh sits about ninety minutes west whenever a contract stretch needs a proper big-city weekend.
