Traveling is fine if you're under 30 with no family but it's not an option for most. Per diem just means not committed to a weekly schedule but they get paid the same. Sometimes though rare they give extra incentives to cover open shifts but nothing that gets you anywhere near $100k. At least at MaineHealth

Why isn’t traveling nurses an option? I know plenty who are home every day and don’t have to stay near the hospital. In Central Maine, I know people who worked for St. Mary’s, CMMC and Maine General and were home everyday. They also made easily $90k per year doing it.
