Most nurses sign their contracts without a careful read. That's how bad clauses sneak through — unpaid orientation, floating requirements, vague cancellation terms, non-competes. The Free Contract Audit Kit is a self-service review tool built to catch them before you sign.

What's Included

  • Step-by-step contract review checklist
  • Red-flag identification guide (10 items)
  • Word-for-word counter-offer emails
  • Recruiter phone negotiation scripts
  • Legal addendum clause templates
  • Pay package comparison worksheet

Red Flags the Kit Helps You Check For

  • Vague cancellation clauses that let the facility cancel penalty-free
  • Housing stipends below GSA per diem for the assignment location
  • Mandatory floating to units outside your specialty
  • Unpaid orientation or training periods
  • Excessive early termination penalties ($5,000+)
  • No guaranteed hours or overtime language
  • Missing or delayed health insurance coverage
  • Non-compete clauses restricting future assignments

How It Works

  1. Download the kit. Instant digital delivery — checklist, red-flag guide, and scripts.
  2. Review your contract. Walk through each section using the checklist.
  3. Negotiate with confidence. Use the scripts and counter-offer templates to fix bad clauses before signing.

Who It's For

  • Travel nurses reviewing agency contracts before signing
  • Staff nurses evaluating offer letters and negotiating hiring terms
  • New grad nurses who want to know what a fair contract looks like
  • PRN and per diem nurses protecting flexible arrangements
