Common questions
- Which Cambridge hospital hires travelers most?
- Mount Auburn Hospital, with 7 of the city's 7 openings and 189 beds. Counts are refreshed hourly from the board.
- Do I need a Massachusetts license to work in Cambridge?
- Massachusetts has enacted the Nurse Licensure Compact but has not implemented it, so a multistate license does not cover you here yet. You need a Massachusetts license.
- How does Cambridge compare with Boston?
- Cambridge's median advertised rate is $3,099 a week against $2,561 in Boston; HUD fair market rent for a two-bedroom is $3,880 in Cambridge and $3,080 in Boston. Medians mix every specialty posted, so compare your own specialty's rate before the city's.
- Is there housing on CircleRN near Cambridge?
- Yes: 70 places listed by hosts for travelers within 25 miles of the city's hospitals. Take the stipend and rent one, or use the listings to compare against what your recruiter quotes.
- Does Massachusetts tax travel nurse pay?
- Massachusetts taxes wage income, so the taxable base of a package is taxed at the state level as well as federally. Stipends are not wages; what counts as a stipend depends on your tax home.
