TravCon 2025 Recap: Connecting with Travel Nurses in Las Vegas

Introduction

Each September, Las Vegas transforms into the hub of the travel nurse community for TravCon, the largest conference dedicated to travel healthcare professionals. TravCon 2025 was no exception. With hundreds of booths, breakout sessions, and social events, it was a week full of energy, education, and connection.

For us at Cynet Health, TravCon is more than just an industry conference; it’s an opportunity to meet face-to-face with travel nurses from across the country, hear their stories, and share the resources and support that we offer. From new nurses considering their very first assignment to seasoned professionals looking for their next big adventure, we had countless inspiring conversations that reminded us why this community is so unique.

Celebrating the Travel Nurse Community

Travel nurses come from all walks of life, and at TravCon, you can feel the diversity of experiences in every conversation. Some are drawn to the flexibility, others to the adventure of exploring new places, and many are motivated by the chance to grow their skills across different specialties.

What unites them is their dedication, to patients, to lifelong learning, and to the freedom that travel nursing offers. At Cynet, we were honored to listen, learn, and celebrate these incredible professionals who make such a difference wherever they go.

Highlights from TravCon 2025

TravCon is more than an expo, it’s an immersive experience. This year, travel nurses had access to educational sessions on career development, financial planning, and self-care, plus networking opportunities that extended well beyond the exhibit floor.

At the Cynet Health booth, we connected with hundreds of travelers, answering questions about assignments, pay packages, and career pathways. We also had the chance to share insights on what makes Cynet stand out: our commitment to transparent communication and round-the-clock recruiter support.

Showcasing Cynet Health Benefits

One of the most exciting parts of TravCon for us was the chance to highlight the benefits we provide to all Cynet travelers. These include:

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) retirement savings with employer match
  • Referral and loyalty bonuses
  • Travel reimbursements for housing and transportation
  • Licensure and certification reimbursements
  • Continuing education (CEU) support
  • Access to 24/7 recruiter assistance

These benefits aren’t just add-ons; they’re part of our promise to support nurses both on and off the job.

Looking Ahead

TravCon is always a highlight of our year, but it’s just the beginning. The connections we make in Las Vegas carry forward into new relationships, new assignments, and new opportunities to support the travel nurse community.

For those who visited our booth, thank you for sharing your time and your stories. For those who couldn’t make it, know that we’re always here to provide the same level of support, benefits, and transparency showcased at TravCon.

Conclusion

TravCon 2025 was a celebration of everything that makes travel nursing extraordinary: dedication, adventure, and community. We left Las Vegas inspired, grateful, and more committed than ever to empowering travel nurses throughout every stage of their journey.

At Cynet Health, great conversations lead to great opportunities. Whether you’re preparing for your first travel contract or looking for your next adventure, we’re here to help.

Tips for First Time Travelers

Ask yourself why you want to travel

Why do you want to travel? Is it money, the experience, or perhaps both? Can I afford to travel? How does this affect my personal life?

Know before you go

Confirm if weekends, evenings or on-call are expected. Get clarification on accommodations and other necessities.

Arrive a few days early before your report date

Be familiar with the area you will be living, as well as the lay of the facility where you will be working, and importantly, the parking if applicable. It is ideal to live withing a reasonable proximity to your new work place.

Educate yourself

There are many social media groups, travel nursing sites and experienced travelers to get insight. Join relevant support groups. It can also be a great way to make new friend.

Be flexible

Working in the medical field is no doubt demanding. Long hours and night shifts are often the norm. It is more likely that more opportunity will be available for those that can be flexible.

What to bring

As a traveler, “less is more”. The beauty of minimalism is that it allows flexibility for future opportunities. Always remember the necessities; your certifications/credentials, and government id’s. A passport and comfy shoes are recommended, too? You are a traveler, after all!
