The Local Traveler Program is available to employees who live a significant distance from their assigned hospital location, encouraging healthcare professionals from other nearby cities to consider opportunities with Northside and allowing us to retain valuable staff who relocate from the metro-Atlanta area.
Local Travelers receive the standard, competitive salary and benefits offered to all Northside employees, plus an additional $7.00 per hour to help compensate for travel expenses. Local Travelers are not compensated for their commute time to their hospital location.
