I live in the Phoenix area and someone told me that they heard a rumor that there is an agency/registry somewhere that will fly an RN out to California and pay $1000 for a 12 hour shift and then fly you back. If anyone has any information on this, please help me out. Thanks for your time.

Strike work perhaps? I live in So Cal and have never heard of an agency doing that.

I wondered if it was strike work. The person told me that she can work 1-5 days a week and her airfare and hotel are all paid for. I am a skeptic, so I thought I would check with some people on here to try to find out some different opinions.

I am in California and work agency. The higher side of pay can be about $600 per 12 hour shift, and that doesn't include transportation or housing.

What you read may have been strike nursing as mentioned above, not regular ICU shifts.

Could you imagine 1000 bucks for 12 hours hubba hubba
