Aloha, travel nurses! Want to know the only downside of a travel nursing job in Hawaii<\/a>? It’s simple. There\u2019s just too much to do on your days off!\u00a0You can swim, surf, sunbathe or catch scenic helicopter ride over some of the world\u2019s most gorgeous scenery. For this reason, it\u2019s difficult to accurately characterize a travel nursing assignment in Hawaii as \u201cwork.\u201d Also, the weather is equally as wonderful as the landscapes. The Hawaiian Islands are technically in the tropics but thanks to the constant easterly trade winds, residents and visitors avoid the humidity. Year-round island temperatures hover in the 80\u2019s. This makes them one of the world\u2019s top tourist destinations. It’s no surprise that Hawaii is one of the most sought-after travel nurse destinations<\/a>. You’ll be working to help others in your career while still enjoying some of the amazing sights and activities that Hawaii has to offer. Below we’ll take a look at some of the other reasons to consider travel nursing in Hawaii.<\/p>\n

Travel Nursing in Hawaii<\/h2>\n

Health Care in Hawaii<\/h3>\n

Everyone on the islands needs access to quality health care. There are more than just tourists on these islands. Residents and military personnel also live there. The tourist population is one of the biggest reasons that more nurses are needed. The average RN salary as of 2019 was $73,550<\/a>. That being said, you should keep in mind that travel nurses usually earn above-average salaries during assignments. The greatest projected increase was in nursing and residential care facilities. These facilities need more workers due to the aging population of patients in Hawaii and across the country. Oahu has the greatest staffing needs because it has the highest population density. Approximately one million residents live together on 597 square miles of land. Hawaii is often a destination for retirees, which means that the population is getting older. An older population will often indicate a larger need for health professionals.<\/p>\n

Hawaii has implemented some of the same health care system goals the current administration dreams of making a reality on a national scale. 95% of Hawaii\u2019s residents are ensured. This is because of a policy requiring employers to ensure any employees working more than 20 hours per week. The state also boasts an emphasis on preventative health care that keeps medical costs in check.<\/p>\n

The Attractions<\/h3>\n

You’ve seen the pictures. Whether they’re on postcards, cheeky Facebook quotes, or posted by vacationing friends, Hawaii is a beautiful state. It’s no wonder that travel nursing in Hawaii is something that many nurses consider.\u00a0Waikiki, with its beautiful stretch of oceanfront beach, is Hawaii’s biggest tourist attraction. This suburb of Honolulu is great for those looking for some fun in the sun. Not only does it have a stellar beach, but it also offers various opportunities for shopping, hiking, and other great activities. If you’ve got a friend visiting you while you’re on an assignment, this is a great place to take them.<\/p>\n

History enthusiasts will certainly want to check out Pearl Harbor. As one of the most famous landmarks in U.S. history.\u00a0The\u00a0Pearl Harbor Visitor Center\u00a0has free admission and is the meeting place for tours, including transportation to the\u00a0Pacific Aviation Museum\u00a0on\u00a0Ford Island, where visitors can see WWII aircraft and artifacts and other aviation equipment.<\/p>\n

Not to be outdone, Hawaii also has an active volcano. You heard that correctly. There’s an actual active volcano that you can just swing by and check out.
