I don’t have a lot of background in that. I would suggest reaching out to some exisiting companies that already offer travel nursing jobs for Canadian nurses and see if they would be willing to help you out, or at the very least poke around their websites and see if there are organizations or associations they are a part of that can help you. Here are some I found: http://www.selectmedconnections.com/ and http://www.travelnurse.ca/.

I think both would be the best answer. Travel nursing seems to be a bit nonexistent in my opinion in Canada, aside from working in the far up north. I would like to establish myself as a recruiter here in Toronto Canada for companies who wish to recruit nurses. Do you have any suggestions on what I should do in terms of networking or obtaining any initial research related to getting into this kind of recruitment. Thanks again. We presently provide local recruitment and agency work, but nothing in terms of travel nursing.

Do you mean how do you get started as a travel nurse or how do you start a travel nursing company?

I have a lot of nurses that I train and interact with on a daily basis who are interested in travel nursing. I live in Canada and would love to get your educated opinion on what the best ways to get into the business are. If you could also email me about salary potential for a travel nurse it would be very much appreciated. My email is info@torontoschoolofnursing.com or get me at my website at http://torontoschoolofnursing.com
I would love to get an idea about the salary expectations and potentials. I wasn’t able to find it on your blog!
