Bad Travel Experience

I wanted to post here and warn anybody who is considering using PNS ( Professional Nursing Services) to travel with. I signed up for my first travel assignment to go to USVI St Thomas with PNS. Scott was my recruiter and over the month prior to me leaving we developed a good rapport. I did my homework, but was not at all prepared for what awaited me in St. Thomas. My housing was totally disgusting and nothing worked. Because i brought my friend and my 7 year old daughter along I had to pay extra. No TV, No air, broken shower door, the list goes on and on. I waited almost 4 weeks and still I did not get moved inspite of promises made to me by Scott. I found out through the educator at the hospital that my recruiter was the owners son. I was living in a dump and never got moved. I obtained an attorney and broke my contract, and was never paid for the 2 weeks owed to me. NOT ONE DIME.
Beware of this company and its predatory recruiting practices.
