To work as a Wisconsin 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. Wisconsin 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. Wisconsin travel nursing can be a rewarding experience for nurses that possess strong clinical skills and want to travel the country.
