iPhone Apps for Travel Nurses

I have received an email from the RN to BSN Online Degrees website, and she told me a recent post entitled 50 Essential iPhone Apps for Travel Nurses.

"Nursing is hard enough when you do it from home, but when you travel, it is all the more difficult. Luckily, travel nurses with iPhones can find lots to utilize with these top 50 apps for travel, health, and more."

This is cool stuff! Assuming you have an iPhone and you would like to use it for your Nursing occupation. I strongly suggest you visit their website and read the whole article. Here are some sample applications that they have on their list:

TravelTracker: With this app, you can organize all of your travel related items like flights, hotel stays, and car rentals. Just enter your flight information and view its status via the web. It can also track train travel and pleasure cruises.

XpenseTracker: This is an all inclusive expense tracking application for business or personal use. In addition to recording all of your expenses, it can export them to your desktop in an Excel friendly format. Photo receipts are also exported to your desktop computer.
