Why Nurses Love Boutique Agencies

Let’s be real, most agencies are like factories: massive, impersonal, and built to crank out volume. You get passed from recruiter to credentialing to payroll like a hot potato, and half the time, no one knows your name or where you're actually going.

Wayward isn’t built like that. We’re a boutique agency on purpose.
That means:

  • You’re not one of 10,00 nurses on a spreadsheet.

  • You get one tight-knit team who handles your whole journey...no corporate maze.

  • We focus on long-term vibes, not one-and-done placements.

We’re rebels with a purpose: to make travel nursing feel less like a transaction and more like a partnership.

Short-Staffed? We’ve Got You.

Wayward is a Joint Commission-certified boutique agency with a nationwide roster of vetted, ready-to-roll healthcare pros. We staff everything from Level 1 trauma centers to tiny critical access hospitals—and we move fast.

We’re not some bloated agency with five handoffs and a two-week delay. We’re lean, tight-knit, and laser-focused on fit.

  • No fluff

  • No red tape

  • Just the right people, in the right places, right when you need them

Patient care can’t wait. Neither should you.
