Travel Nursing and Allied Roles in Wailuku, Honolulu, Hilo, and More

Trusted Health is your ultimate companion in embarking on your healthcare journey in Hawaii. We provide travel nurses and allied health professionals with access to a thriving online community, a comprehensive job board featuring exclusive opportunities across Hawaii, and invaluable career resources tailored to your needs. Whether you're longing for assignments in bustling Honolulu or serene retreats on the Big Island, Trusted Health is here to support you every step of the way.

What licensing requirements do I need to fulfill to work as a travel nurse or allied health professional in Hawaii? In Hawaii, travel nurses must secure state licensure. Additionally, allied health professionals may need licensing, but this requirement depends on their specific roles. Unlike some states, Hawaii is not part of the  Nurse Licensure Compact (NLC) , which means nurses with multistate licenses will need to obtain a separate license to practice in Hawaii. Trusted Health understands the complexity of these requirements, which is why we provide comprehensive resources like our  Nursing Licensure Guide and  Allied Career Guide . These resources are tailored to assist you in navigating the intricacies of licensure, ensuring a smooth transition into your new role. What are the typical housing options for healthcare professionals in Hawaii? Housing options in Hawaii range from beachfront condos and luxury resorts to cozy cottages and apartment complexes. Travel nurses and allied health professionals can explore options such as furnished apartments, extended-stay accommodations, or temporary housing provided by healthcare facilities. What are the most in-demand specialties in Hawaii for healthcare professionals? In Hawaii, healthcare facilities often seek professionals in specialties such as emergency medicine, critical care, oncology, and orthopedics. Allied health professionals in fields like physical therapy, occupational therapy, and radiology technology are also in high demand, particularly in tourist destinations like Honolulu and Maui. How do I navigate transportation and logistics in Hawaii, especially in urban areas? Transportation in Hawaii varies depending on the island and urbanization level. While cities like Honolulu have extensive public transportation systems, travel nurses and allied health professionals may also need to consider options such as driving, ridesharing, or biking. What opportunities are available for professional development and continuing education in Hawaii? Hawaii is not only a haven for relaxation but also a hub for professional growth and development in healthcare. From prestigious medical centers and research institutions to specialized training programs and conferences, there are abundant opportunities for travel nurses and allied health professionals to enhance their skills and advance their careers. Trusted Health also provides access to career resources to support your professional journey in this idyllic island paradise.

Amanda Goad is the most amazing recruiter I have worked with. She is the most responsive and go-getter. She is in constant contact with you or hospitals to get you offers and/or advocating for you. She is super motivated and helpful. If you have the opportunity to use her, you will not regret it.

Needed to move across country to be next to my partner, but blindly jumping into a full time job for a hospital system I was not familiar with was out of the question. Host Healthcare (Natalie G specifically) stood by me and helped me fulfill my absurdly specific requests. I was a first time time traveler and I couldn't have made it without the support I received!
Just finished my first contract with Host Healthcare (fifth overall) and they were amazing! Specifically my recruiter Jenny Berroth. Jenny was so helpful and easy to communicate with. I had a couple issues come up and Jenny was all over them and took care of everything so I could just concentrate on being a nurse, while she handled the rest. I can’t recommend Host and Jenny enough! You have to give Host and Jenny a try, you’ll be glad you did!

The response time from my recruiter and nurse specialist is amazing! They both have been so great to work with on my first assignment out in California!!! Chad and Samantha both are super caring and very responsive! I already extended my contract with the hospital because of the smooth process. They made the transition from Florida to California a lot loss stressful than I imagined. Would definitely recommend them both!!!

My recruiter, and other staff I have had the pleasure of interacting with, are all so friendly and helpful. My recruiter is responsive, and even reached out while she was on vacation to check on me! I’ve worked with other agencies in the past, but Stability is next level when it comes to making your travel nursing experience as seamless as possible! Special shout out to Lindsay (best recruiter ever) and Tracy. Amazing people to work with.

Brittany J.

My recruiter is very responsive and personable. I have NEVER had any issues with them!! This agency even has PTO! None of my co workers with other agencies have this benefit!! Also the rates are equal or higher than most other agencies!! Everything feels more like family than business and for that I would choose stability over any other agency!! I am so happy I chose to work with them!

Sopheare C.

My recruiter Amanda is amazing and always timely with her responses. Debbie who is my nurse experience specialist who is with me all times of the contract is truly awesome. Love how responsive she is and will answer any and all my questions. Big thanks to Jesse my compliance coordinator for making all the appointments and getting me travel ready. Can’t thank my team enough for all they do. Any question or issue I have they resolve right away. And I love that they breakdown each contract into a spread so you know exactly what your getting for the terms of the contract.

I have been incredibly impressed by the professionalism, ease of communication, ability to have all requirements for onboarding fulfilled in a timely manner, and just overall outstanding service. Lindsay Hernandez is my particular recruiter and she has been a pleasure to work with, as well as all the team members at Stability. I’m looking forward to staying with them for my next assignment. I highly recommend them to my nursing friends, and anyone looking to travel as a nurse!

If you seek a picture-perfect vista, you can find it 10,000 feet above sea level on the dormant volcano Haleakala. Venture to Kīlauea Iki to hike across the active volcano’s crater. Wander across the hardened lava that is still warm to the touch and stare in amazement at the steam ascending from the ground that was a lake of bubbling lava just over 60 years ago. Watch the sun set over the horizon from one of these lofty perches then head down to a luau to dine on some of the most flavorful island food in the pacific, become entranced by the fire dancer’s prowess and the swift movements of the hula.

The ultimate guide for writing a great nursing resume

What it’s like to work as a travel nurse in hawaii.

' src=

When people think of travel nursing, they often think of the exciting places it could take them , and Hawaii is often at the top of the list. After all, what could be better than travel nursing in Hawaii? You get to spend a few months exploring the island, you help people along the way, and you get paid for it. Kelly Kilcoyne, a NICU travel nurse, got to do just that on her first travel nursing assignment. Here’s what Kelly learned and some of the things she was able to experience while travel nursing in Hawaii .

Getting started in travel nursing

Waikiki shoreline

Kelly started her nursing career in Scranton, Pennsylvania. About two years in, she decided to give travel nursing a try. She originally wanted to get her feet wet by taking a local travel nursing job, but her recruiter, Sarah, encouraged her to give Hawaii a try.

It wasn’t long before she got a call at 11 p.m. from a Hawaii number. That phone call turned into an interview, which led to Kelly’s first travel nursing job in Oahu . She lived in Waikiki — a five-minute walk from the beach, where she could literally get her feet wet whenever she wanted.

Experiencing a new culture

The culture of Hawaii is quite different from the mainland United States. It’s known for being laid back and casual, and Kelly noticed this during her work there. For example, she wasn’t “Kelly” or “the nurse,” she was “Auntie Kelly.”

“Auntie is a term of respect and endearment, especially if you were taking care of little kids, so I was Auntie Kelly and all the nurses were Auntie or Uncle,” Kelly explains.

Travel nurse Kelly Kilcoyne on the beach in Hawaii

Hawaii’s related culture meant that Kelly grew close to the parents of the babies she took care of.

“It was a mix of personal and professional because some of those babies had been there so long,” Kelly says. “The parents know everybody by name. You know the parents and all the family members, and you know what time of day they like to come. You’re excited to tell them news like, ‘Oh, he took his first bottle today.’ It was always really nice.”

In the continental United States, we’re used to driving just about anywhere within a state, but because Hawaii is made up of islands that are, by definition, separated by water, parents often had to fly back and forth to visit their babies in the NICU.

Making new friends

One intimidating part of travel nursing can be the challenge of making friends while on assignment . Before her assignment, Kelly was worried she would feel like an outsider in a tight-knit community. However, Kelly found that there were other travel nurses in Hawaii, and she quickly made friends with the other travelers. It was nice to have a social group to hang out with when she was off shift. Kelly said she still talks to the friends she made in Hawaii even though it’s been more than two years.

Kelly was able to make friends outside of the travelers too. She got to know the staff and other nurses of the hospital very well. And one day, she just joined a group of strangers for a game of beach volleyball. It all goes back to that laid-back attitude of Hawaii. Hawaiians are known for being open and welcoming, so it’s a great place for travel nurses to go.

Exploring the Islands

Kelly and Oahu waterfall

Although the culture of travel nursing in Hawaii is great, that’s not usually the main reason people want to take a travel nursing job there. They want to lounge on white beaches, hike volcanoes, and chase waterfalls. Kelly had three months to do all of that and more when she wasn’t working.

When she had four days off, she flew to Maui and drove the beautiful-but-white-knuckle Road to Hana . She also snorkeled, where she got to see tropical fish, bright coral reefs, and sea turtles. On her shorter periods of time off from work, she explored Oahu. She hiked to see incredible waterfalls, watched surfers, or just lounged on the beach.

“Some of my favorite days were just unwinding because I could walk to the beach. I got myself a library card, rented a couple of books, and just brought a little chair to the beach and a little drink and snack and I’d just relax,” said Kelly. 

Kelly learned to appreciate Hawaii in its small moments as well. She talked about watching the sunset as she drove into work for the night shift. Then, at the end of her shift, if things were stressful, she could come home, change into her swimsuit, and then sit by the ocean to decompress. 

In any assignment, travel nurses should take full advantage of wherever their job is, but this is especially the case with Hawaii. Kelly recommends, “Just jump into it with both feet. Hawaii was so wonderful, and I did so many wonderful things. But for every awesome thing I did there was still five other things I could have done.”
