The lives of nine nurses are profiled in this factual programme. Aside from the challenges inherent in working on the front lines of health care, what makes their occupation interesting is that the three men and six women are travel nurses, which means they move frequently to work short-term stints in different hospitals. Three of the nurses are veterans of the travel programme, and the rest are newcomers, but together they face acclimating to new cities - in `Scrubbing In,' it's one in Orange County, Calif - making new friends while maintaining existing relationships, diving into unfamiliar dating pools, and proving themselves to the staff at each hospital. But it's not all work and no play for the attractive 20-somethings - the energetic, fearless and outgoing nurses love to blow off steam during their downtime.
