Travel nursing has experienced an increase in global demand due to the evolution of travel medicine.[2] Travel health nursing was recognized during the 1980s as an emerging occupation to meet the needs of the traveling public, and additional education and training was established.[3][2] Travel health nurses typically work in "private practice, hospital outpatient units, universities, the government, and the military",[2][1] and have more opportunities and leadership roles as travel has become more common.[4][2] However, they also experience organizational and support-related conflicts with general practitioners and patients in healthcare settings.[5][6]
