PASSPORT HEALTH
Registered Nurse - Travel Medicine
This isn't a traditional nursing role and that's exactly the point.
Passport Health is North America's largest travel medicine and immunization provider, with 300+ clinics across the U.S. and Canada. We're looking for experienced RNs who are ready to step out of a high-pressure hospital or traditional clinic setting and into a role built around autonomy, specialized expertise, and genuine one-on-one patient connection.
What Makes This Role Different:
Most of our nurses work independently - no charge nurse, no team overhead, no endless task lists. You manage your day by seeing your clients, and providing them with the best experience possible. You will be supported by a network of clinical leadership, but the day-to-day is yours.
Travel medicine is a specialty. You'll develop deep expertise in vaccine-preventable diseases, international health risks, and pre-travel health planning - knowledge most nurses never get to build. Every client interaction is a true consultation, not a check-the-box encounter.
Current Opening Details
- Location(s): Phoenix, AZ 85014 and willing to cover additional nearby locations
- Employment Type: Full-Time (FT)
- Compensation:
- Weekly Hours & Schedule: 32 hrs/week; Monday - Friday with bi-weekly Saturdays
What You'll Do
- Conduct in-depth travel health consultations and educate clients on destination-specific risks
- Administer vaccines per standing orders and monitor for adverse reactions
- Recommend and promote travel health products and medications as clinically appropriate
- Manage clinic setup, inventory, and compliance with safety and documentation protocols
- Support onsite corporate wellness or vaccine clinic events as needed
- Complete ongoing travel medicine training - we invest in keeping your clinical knowledge current
Immigration Medical Services - Required Following States: AZ, CO, FL, IL, MA, MD, MO, NC, NJ, NM, OH, OK, TX
Various Passport Health locations support immigration-related medical services, including civil surgeon exams and required vaccinations for USCIS applicants. At these clinics, performing immigration physicals and maintaining strict USCIS documentation compliance is a required part of the role. Training is provided, but attention to detail and comfort with regulated documentation workflows is essential.
Scheduling - The Honest Picture
Passport Health uses a census-based scheduling model, similar to what you may have seen in hospital or outpatient settings. We want you going in with realistic expectations. The nurses who thrive here are those who value the trade-off: less rigidity, more autonomy, and the ability to build a schedule that works for their life and for the business needs, even if that means some week-to-week variability.
Here's what that means in practice:
- Hours are based on client demand, which varies by location and season
- We create a schedule that offers 6–12 months of consistency, helping provide stability, while recognizing that hours are not guaranteed in some markets
- To support schedule planning and consistency, we require availability within set scheduling windows, which allows us to provide a clear, forward-looking view of your work schedule
- We do our best to honor availability, and flexibility (preferred day/time coverage, weekends, or willingness to cover multiple locations) can increase your scheduled hours
- Peak travel seasons (typically February–August) generally bring higher and more stable volume
What You Need to Succeed
- Active RN license in good standing
- Compact (multistate) RN licensure accepted - you must legally reside in the state where you are licensed and providing care
- 3+ years of clinical nursing experience (travel medicine background a plus, not required)
- Comfortable working independently - you won't always have backup in the clinic
- Strong patient communication and education skills
- Reliable access to a personal computer (training systems require desktop or laptop)
- Proficiency with Google Suite (Gmail, Drive, Docs, Meet)
- Current First Aid/CPR certification
- Ability to lift and transport vaccine inventory as needed (up to 25 lbs)
Ideal For Nurses Who
- Are adaptable - comfortable shifting gears between high-volume and consultative modes
- Want the range of both clinic types without switching locations
- Are reliable for weekend coverage and flexible with scheduling
Ready to Apply?
If you're an experienced RN who's ready for something different - a role where your clinical judgment is trusted and your patient relationships matter - we'd love to hear from you.

Travel Registered Nurse Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a travel registered nurse in Arizona?
You become a travel registered nurse in Arizona by holding an active RN license issued or recognized by the Arizona State Board of Nursing, which oversees licensure for the state. Arizona participates in the Nurse Licensure Compact, so nurses licensed in another compact state can work in Arizona without applying for a separate license. You need an ADN or BSN from an accredited program, passing NCLEX-RN, and typically at least one year of clinical experience before agencies and hospital systems will consider travel placements.
How much do travel registered nurses make in Arizona?
Travel registered nurses in Arizona earn a median of about $99,500 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $70,540 for the lowest 10% to over $130,930 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire travel registered nurses in Arizona?
Arizona travel registered nurse roles are posted by American Traveler, Talented Medical Solutions, and tms and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Arizona's large integrated health systems and standalone acute care hospitals drive the majority of travel nurse demand, particularly in the Phoenix metro where facility growth has outpaced permanent staffing.
Which Arizona cities have the most travel registered nurse jobs?
Tucson, Phoenix, and Globe are the Arizona cities with the most travel registered nurse openings. Phoenix accounts for the largest share due to the concentration of major hospital campuses and specialty centers in the metro, while Tucson's academic medical environment and Scottsdale's high-volume surgical and cardiac facilities sustain consistent travel nurse needs outside the core city.
Are there remote travel registered nurse jobs in Arizona?
Yes, but they're rare. About 0% of travel registered nurse openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting how inherently hands-on bedside and acute care nursing work is. The remote segment that does exist tends to be in telephone triage, utilization review, or case management roles that draw on RN credentials without requiring physical patient contact.
How can I get hired as a travel registered nurse in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing a new graduate residency program at a large Arizona health system, then transitioning to travel assignments after building one to two years of unit-specific experience. Banner Health and Dignity Health both run structured nurse residency programs in Arizona that place new ADN and BSN graduates in med-surg, telemetry, and critical care tracks. Holding an active Arizona compact RN license and certifications like BLS and ACLS before applying strengthens any early-career candidate's position considerably.
Where can I find and apply to travel registered nurse jobs in Arizona?
You can find and apply to travel registered nurse jobs in Arizona on Migrate Mate, which lists current Arizona openings across Phoenix, Tucson, Scottsdale, and other markets in the state. Find the roles that fit your specialty, license status, and preferred location, then apply directly to each one.
