FAQs – Operating Room Travel Nurse Jobs Near Knoxville, TN
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.
Does Tennessee honor my multistate license for this assignment?
Yes—an active multistate RN license covers this assignment because Tennessee participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact. Endorsement applicants should budget extra care for the Declaration of Citizenship: it requires a handwritten, notarized signature with supporting identity documentation—digital signatures are rejected, and the form is a common roadblock—have it notarized before you file. Our Tennessee Nursing License Guide has current fees, timelines, and step-by-step instructions.

- Day One Benefits, Medical, Dental, Vision & 401(k)
- Relocation and Travel Reimbursement

Explore Knoxville, TN
From a riverfront university campus through a rebuilt downtown spreads Knoxville, TN, whose Market Square ranks among the very best public spaces in the South. The hospital market here carries deep regional weight, with emergency department, intensive care, and telemetry assignments posting all year. Renting stays gentle for a metro of this size, which remains an East Tennessee draw. Neyland Stadium's fall Saturdays turn the entire town checkerboard orange, traffic patterns included. The Urban Wilderness threads its fifty-plus miles of trail through the city's south side, an unusual asset for a metro. The Tennessee River carries rowing and paddleboard evenings right downtown, and the Smokies' trailheads wait only about fifty minutes southeast.
