Travel Nurse across America is a national travel, health-care staffing agency that places nursing professionals on multi-week
assignments to all 50 states, and provides employee benefits and perks that are the envy of many companies.
That helps make it one of Arkansas Business’ 2014 Best Places to Work.TNAA’s target market is focused on two segments: shortterm, acute care hospitals and outpatient surgical facilities and registered nurses currently working as travel nurses or interested in
doing so.
Founded in 1999, Travel Nurse developed proprietary technology that streamlines the staffing process for both client facilities and
travel nurses. It employs 55 out of its home office in North Little Rock and deploys staff members from one coast to the other.
Employee benefits and perks are substantial. Examples include:
* Full medical, dental and vision insurance. TNAA covers the cost of these benefits at 100 percent for the employee.
* Life and long-term disability insurance. TNAA covers the cost at 100 percent.
* Flexible work schedules that promote work/life balance.
* Programs that allow employees to work from home.
* Casual attire year round. During the summer season, employees are allowed to wear shorts and flip-flops.
* Football Fridays are a TNAA tradition that kicks off with the start of football season. Each Friday employees wear their favorite
team’s shirt or jersey and lunch is provided.
* Twice a year, all TNAA employees are flown to the home office for a company event with employees and spouses/significant others
with dinner, drinks and event souvenirs provided.
* During summer months, TNAA purchases ice cream for employees from the Frosty Treat ice cream truck.
* Giving back to the community through company-wide charity drives for local nonprofits.
* All employees receive their birthday off with pay.
* All employees are given a monetary Christmas gift.
“In this increasingly competitive industry, it is a major achievement for our company to create a culture in which our employees feel
valued,” CEO Gene Scott said. “That value is translated in the form of recognition, compensation and benefits, but, most importantly,
the emphasis given on the value of the individual. We are not numbers. … We are human beings with families, needs and all the
personal challenges inherent in this life. We want this company to be a place where you are both employee and family.”
caption: Travel Nurse employees are used to traveling, of course, but sometimes that travel is to off-site, employee get-togethers.
