RN relocation is an employee-finding tactic commonly used by medical facilities that have an urgent need for nurses or that are located in less popular parts of the country. The details of relocation assistance vary, but a registered nurse that agrees to relocate receives compensation to assist with or completely cover moving expenses. These programs may also include the cost of storage and provide temporary housing options. Relocation support is often negotiable—employers may be willing to offer more support for qualified candidates, or provide other benefits if no assistance is required.
