   Filipino Nurses, how are you?

   McLovin' replied to ariari's topic in Philippines

   Doing great! So far been here in the US for 6 years now. Experience has been awesome! Did travel nursing in the east coast for a while (didn’t like it). Currently residing in Texas, bought a house, couple of cars and stayed here for good. ?

   probably you'll start at $25/hr. At least that's the recent RN reclassification leads you to. Personally its a pile of bull.
