A California travel nurse working for Procare USA is eligible for our 401k plan with company match and immediate vesting. A range of investment options is provided, giving you the opportunity to spread your investment among different categories within our plan. Procare USA also pays 100% of the premium cost for group medical, dental and term life insurance for our California travel nurses. Affordable dependent care coverage is also available.

The eligibility for Procare’s benefits plans is the first of the calendar month following thirty days of employment.
To work as a California travel nurse, you typically need at least one year of clinical work experience as an RN or LPN preferably in an acute care hospital setting. California hospitals require travel nurses to hit the ground running with limited orientation. Furthermore, travel nurses may be asked to float to other units where they have prior work experience. California travel nursing can be a rewarding experience for nurses that possess strong clinical skills and want to travel the country.
