For nurses that possess strong clinical skills, Texas travel nursing can be a rewarding experience. Texas hospitals require travel nurses to hit the floor running with limited orientation time. In addition, travel nurses may be asked to float to other units where they have prior work experience. Usually to work as a Texas travel nurse, you need a minimum of one year of hospital work experience as a registered nurse or licensed practical nurse.
