Morgan Van Horn is my recruiter and she has been SO helpful since day one! She’s a great support system and also checks in with me to see how everything is going. Shes an amazing recruiter and always goes the extra mile to help you in the hiring process and is always available to answer all questions! I recommend her as my recruiter to plenty of my nurse friends interested in traveling with Aya!

I’ve been working with Morgan Van Horn for half of my traveling career and I’m so happy we were placed together. I always come back to her and couldn’t stay away. She always have my back and been there when I needed her. We work together so well and communicate so good together. She checks up on me from time to time as a friend would. Morgan is honestly the best recruiter/person out there. I will always work with for a travel assignment. Love you girlie <3

Morgan Van Horn is MVP!!! She takes "recruiter" to the next level!!! ANY question I have (even 5 months into my extended L&D RN contract), she'll find the answer! Honestly feels like a best friend, & I'mhoping to continue the friendship for the next 5 years 🩷Also thank you Aya for the Christmas Figs Jacket & reimbursements!!! Can't wait for 2026!

Travel/agency nurse for over ten years. I’ve had the best recruiters here. Morgan Van Horn, my senior recruiter is phenomenal. Diligent, knows her territories, a true hustler and gets the job done better than expected EVERY time. 10/10.

My recruiters Lindsey and Angie have really been my rock while on this assignment. I have been a traveler a long time and this assignment has really taken a toll on me for many reasons. They are so supportive and responsive and I really feel like they have my best interest at heart. Lindsey has been my support for the past 6 years and Angie although newer to me has jumped right in answering my million questions and giving me encouragement when I need it. They are always honest and upfront with me and they work tirelessly to make sure I’m happy. I cannot thank them enough!

If you do choose to go with Aya as a travel agency I highly recommend using Ali Zane as your recruiter, I have been with her the past 3+ years and she is super helpful and quick to respond with any questions/requests.

It has been such a great experience working with Aya Healthcare. I would like to give a huge thanks to my recruiter, Monica H. She’s very kind and a pleasure to work with. Monica always goes above and beyond to find the assignments I really want. I really appreciate how she checks in regularly just to see how things are going. Its shows how dedicated she is to her nurses.

Lindsey and Angie were a great help in finding my assignment quickly. I’ve only done one assignment with them, but I love that I have them to rely on as an option now. They’re always very helpful and easy to communicate to when it comes time to looking for something new. 🙂
