Weekend Package Nursing Positions?


Hi there! I live in NW Iowa and looking for a weekend package nursing position. Preferably in the ortho/neuro area. Is there anyone out there that knows of such a job? Is there anyone that is working in a weekend package agreement?

Thanks.

I have a friend who does weekend package at Mercy in Des Moines. I also think the hospital in Newton also has weekend package available. Not real familiar with hospitals in North or Western IA. I imagine you there are hospitals in Minnesota that would do weekend package. Minnesota wages are generally much higher as well!

Hi there. I have checked into Des Moines. I think right now the weekend packages are just hard to come by. Des Moines is 4 hours away but would consider the drive pending the job/pay/benefits ect. I should check into Worthington....it's closer than Des Moines....never thought about MN...we live right on the SD/NE boarder...so I have been mainly looking into Omaha and Sioux Falls. Thanks for the advice.

Minnesota is not a compact state; did not know if you knew that or not!

Thank You for reminding me of that. I had thought about that afterwards when I was starting to look up jobs in MN.
