Just wondering how the Regional float pool is working and if it is consistent? thanks

Hi Micco,

I am going to start working for the Centura Regional Float Pool soon. Did you ever join or get any information about the pool or consistency?
Thanks.

I never joined the float pool. it appeared very promising, but there was much ground work laid for my specialty in hospitals I had chose to work in. The recruiter told me there was plenty of work for me and there would be no problem getting 40 hours in a week, but 2 days before I was suppose to start, the scheduler had not even heard from 2 of the 3 hospitals where I was suppose to work. It made me very uneasy that I did not have any work scheduled other than orientation and the only hospital that had responded about their need only wanted someone on graveyards. and I asked my manager if I could change my mind and stay where I was. From what I hear, this may only be a problem with my specialty and in my area. hopefully your experience is better. I would like to know if thing are better because I am still interested in the pool. I just didn't want to be the guinea pig.
