  1. Utilization Management Pay Rates??

    Hi Duchess, Sorry for the late rely. I haven't been on the site in awhile. I interviewed with L.A. Care and received a position in their UM Dept. At the time of my interview with L.A. Care, I also had an interview pending with Aetna. Both co...
  2. I'm hoping someone can provide a little insight on Utilization Management pay rates. I'm currently interviewing for UM positions and want to make sure I'm getting paid appropriately. I can't find consistent information when searching online. I have ...
  3. Rapid Response assignments

    I've taken 2 Rapid Response contracts. The first contract was 4 weeks in Palm Springs. It wasn't high acuity or a bad place to work, just a typical assignment. The 2nd contract was a 6 week EPIC conversion. We worked 48 hours a week with both con...
  4. CA RN license question

    Are you applying for licensure by endorsement? If so, I doubt if they would check into something like that.
  5. Is there such a creature as a traveling 'SNF' nurse?

    I used to work with FlexCare and I did a SNF contract with them. The SNF was within the hospital. I have also been offered LTC positions with this agency. Like NedRN said, check with American Mobile. American Mobile has ALOT of hospital contracts...
  6. Henry Mayo in Valencia, CA

    I worked there a few years ago as a Registry Nurse. I never encountered any significant problems. I think the computer system they're using now is Medi-Tech (the updated version) It's a VERY nice location, the people are nice and I felt safe. (I ...
  7. Palm Springs, CA

    I worked in Palm Springs last year and I had the same problem with housing. Thankfully, my assignment was only 4 weeks so I just stayed at a hotel. As the above posted stated, post your own ad on Craig's List. I posted my own ad (as recommended at...
  8. Bakersfield Memorial

    I was just about to post this same question, but decided to do a search first to see if there was already info on here. I'm just about to tell my recruiter to send my profile over. I've had assignments in Bakersfield twice. I just left Kern Medica...
  9. flexcare medical staffing...

    DingoRN, FlexCare does not set up housing, but you still get your tax free housing stipend. The fact that they don't set up housing is a deal breaker for alot of people. They also pay travel pay. (I've been paid for mine) I've worked with 4 compa...
  10. flexcare medical staffing...

    I've worked for FlexCare Medical Staffing for 2 years and I absolutely LOVE them. I've worked with 3 other travel companies and FlexCare is the best so far. I use FlexCare as my primary agency but if they don't have an assignment in my desired loca...
  11. Travel nurse jobs in downtown Chicago

    I was trying to get a travel nursing job in Chicago before I moved there a few years ago. The only thing I could get was a Per-Diem/Registry type travel position through Aya Healthcare, which I would NOT recommend. The first week of my contract, I ...
  12. Any week-long travel assignments?

    Okay, so I just saw someone post that Nurse Choice does 2-8 week assignments. Would 2 weeks work for you?
  13. Any week-long travel assignments?

    I've never come across a one week travel assignment. Usually the first week of your assignment is for orientation so one week would be too short. I just applied with FastStaff and they have 4, 8 and 13 week assignments. Currently I work with FlexC...
  14. Loma Linda, CA travel assignment

    I am currently looking to go to Loma Linda. My current agency doesn't have a contract there. What agency are you guys using?
  15. Travel nursing vs. Strike nursing

    What exactly would you like to know? I'm a travel nurse (Tele) and I just did my first strike in November with Healthsource Global. I liked the ease of the application process for them. You can nominate yourself for a strike with just one 'click'....
