DD/MR Jobs

You haven't told us what steps you've taken so far, so if this information is too basic, I'll just apologize in advance. I'd do a web search for the agency that coordinates services for people with developmental disabilities in Florida and start there. Here in California (as in most of the rest of the nation, I believe) autism is being diagnosed at epidemic levels. Our Regional Center system has nurses that do vision, hearing and dental screenings on all children that are assessed for RC services. I would imagine that there are similar agencies in every state. You could also contact Aging and Independence (that's what it is called in CA) and see if they can get you in touch with the programs serving adults with DD. I would think your services would be in great demand; seems like it is just going to be a matter of getting plugged into the right systems. Good luck!

If you move to Philadelphia, PA, our facility has several nursing positions open!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Florida is too humid. Philadelphia is only 70 miles from the Jersey coast

Hi,

I'm an RN 28yrs with DD. Looking to move to fla west coast around naples. Have about 2 years to retire here and take care of Wife's folks until....
I talked with Fla Nursing Dept, they suggest licensure asap and contacting the childrens hospitals in the area. I ran the care at home agency in long island new york but it is not a viable program in fla. Want to share data, leads?
