Credentialed travel RNs deployed on 13-week contracts to hospitals and healthcare facilities across Greater Houston. We manage credentialing, compliance, and onboarding — so your facility gets a qualified nurse, not paperwork.
Travel nurse staffing fills the gap between a critical vacancy and a permanent hire — without the cost and risk of rushing a direct placement. Hearthstone places credentialed RNs on structured 13-week agreements, with the option to extend based on your facility's evolving census needs.
Whether you're managing a planned leave of absence, a sudden resignation, or sustained census growth, travel nurses from Hearthstone arrive compliant, credentialed, and ready to contribute from day one.
Hearthstone manages the full credentialing process on your behalf, so your compliance team doesn't carry the administrative burden.
Hearthstone sources travel nurses across a broad range of acute and post-acute specialties, matched to your facility's specific unit requirements and patient population.
Medical-surgical, telemetry, step-down, and general acute care RNs for hospital floors with fluctuating census or planned leave coverage.
CVICU, MICU, SICU, and NICU travel RNs for critical care units requiring high-acuity experience and ACLS certification. Verified specialty credentials on every placement.
Emergency department RNs with triage experience and ACLS/TNCC credentials for high-volume ED environments and trauma-capable hospitals across Houston.
L&D, postpartum, and NICU travel nurses for women's health units and perinatal programs. EFM proficiency and NRP certification verified.
OR, PACU, and pre/post-op travel nurses for surgical programs managing planned procedures, ASC volume growth, or OR staffing gaps.
Travel RNs for skilled nursing facilities, rehab centers, and long-term care communities managing chronic nurse turnover, regulatory gaps, or census-driven staffing needs.

How long are travel nurse contracts with Hearthstone & Co.?
Standard contracts are 13 weeks, mirroring the industry norm for travel nursing. Extensions are offered in advance — typically 4 weeks before contract end — and can run week-by-week or in new 13-week blocks depending on mutual availability.
How quickly can you deploy a travel nurse to our facility?
After contract execution and full credentialing sign-off, most placements begin within 1–2 weeks. For urgent situations, we can often accelerate the timeline if a pre-credentialed match is already available in our pipeline.
Do you serve facilities outside of Houston proper?
Yes. Hearthstone serves the full Greater Houston market including Katy, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Conroe, Pasadena, Pearland, Humble, and surrounding areas across Harris, Fort Bend, and Montgomery counties.
Who handles the credentialing process — us or Hearthstone?
Hearthstone handles the full credentialing process on your behalf. We compile licensure, background checks, immunization records, certifications, and facility-specific requirements, and deliver a complete compliance package to your HR or credentialing team before the nurse starts.
Can a travel nurse convert to a permanent hire?
Yes. We offer temp-to-hire conversion pathways. If a travel nurse is a strong fit for your team and both parties are interested in a permanent transition, Hearthstone can facilitate that process.
Submit your staffing request and our team will match you with credentialed travel RNs within one business day. 13-week contracts, full compliance documentation, fast activation.
