“I did try some other companies but came back to CompHealth. I've been in places where I don't know if I'm coming or going with that company. Never have I had that experience with CompHealth. Every single department is prompt, helpful, knowledgeable, and goes out of their way. When you have a bad day, they listen.”
Kimberly Young,
Respiratory Therapist
“There are countless experiences that I had, people that I met, places that I saw, that I couldn't imagine my life without those experiences. Some of my best friends were made through traveling, and there are so many unforgettable memories.”
Jasmine Van Dyke,
Physical Therapist
“I’ve been with CompHealth all these years because they follow up with me every week or so. When I’m not on assignment they’ll still stay in touch and help me to find jobs. They help me with the reimbursement for all my licenses, which are many. They also help with housing and benefits, so it’s just a great company to work with.”
Kelly Murphey,
Occupational Therapist
“I have worked with two other travel companies, just for one assignment each, but CompHealth is ten times better than either of the other two companies in regard to professionalism and consistency with staff. I think it’s really important having that consistency and having that person that you know is always there.”
Jennifer Frazier,
Physical Therapist

Travel therapy FAQ
What is travel therapy?
Travel therapy jobs are short-term assignments that allow therapists to work in different healthcare settings across the country. It’s a great way to gain experience, explore new places, and earn competitive pay.
Why do therapists choose travel jobs?
Many therapists choose travel jobs for the higher pay, flexibility, and adventure of working in new locations. It’s also a great way to build a diverse skill set and expand your career opportunities.
How much does it cost?
Working with us is always free to you. In addition to paying you an hourly wage, we’ll typically pay for housing and travel as well. We have a dedicated housing department to find and arrange for housing for our travel therapists, and we also pay for any necessary licensing, paperwork, and malpractice insurance.
How does pay work?
Pay varies based on specialty, location, and assignment length, but travel therapists often earn more than full-time staff therapists due to added stipends and bonuses. Therapists working with us will enter their time in our MyCompHealth digital portal, and paychecks are deposited into their bank accounts weekly.
