Travel Nurse RN Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a travel nurse rn in Pennsylvania?

You become a travel nurse rn in Pennsylvania by first holding an active registered nurse license issued by the Pennsylvania State Board of Nursing or a multistate compact license if your home state participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact. Pennsylvania is a compact member state, which simplifies working across state lines. Most assignments also require at least one year of recent clinical experience in your specialty and current BLS certification before a facility will accept you on assignment.

How much do travel nurse RNs make in Pennsylvania?

Travel nurse RNs in Pennsylvania earn a median of about $96,430 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $70,800 for the lowest 10% to over $117,900 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire travel nurse rns in Pennsylvania?

Employers hiring travel nurse rns in Pennsylvania right now include Voyage Health, American Traveler, and Milan Laser Hair Removal, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Pennsylvania's high concentration of large academic health systems and regional hospital networks means consistent openings across specialties, particularly in the Philadelphia and Pittsburgh metro areas.

Which Pennsylvania cities have the most travel nurse rn jobs?

The Pennsylvania cities with the most travel nurse rn openings are Pittsburgh, York, and Scranton. Philadelphia leads because of its dense cluster of academic medical centers and health systems, while Pittsburgh's strength comes from UPMC's extensive regional network, and Allentown draws demand from Lehigh Valley Health Network and surrounding suburban facilities serving a growing population corridor.

How can I get hired as a travel nurse rn in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is completing a new graduate residency or transition-to-practice program at a large Pennsylvania health system before pursuing travel assignments. UPMC, Jefferson Health, and Penn Medicine all run structured new-grad residency programs that build the clinical foundation most travel contracts require. Starting in a staff RN role in medical-surgical or telemetry, then accumulating a year of documented bedside experience, is the standard bridge to travel eligibility. Holding your Pennsylvania State Board of Nursing license and specialty certifications strengthens your application considerably.
