1. New Atlanta Contract

   Lovelymo79 replied to Bluebolt's topic in Travel

   They aren't offering it because it's a bad situation. I'm here in at Piedmont as a CVICU travel nurse and it's been a good assignment so far. I float to all the other ICUs too but it's been all good. Everyone has been nice and helpful. The reason why...

2. Ga Board of Nurses by Endorsement questions & Frustrations

   OMG..I am STILL waiting! I sent my application in the 3rd week of December - had 2 sets of fingerprints rejected and still waiting for my name search to go through by the FBI! I start work 2/23 and am not sure if I'll have this in time...so annoying!

3. Do you lie when they ask, "how long?"

   Lovelymo79 replied to delphine22's topic in Relations

   LOL! I like the question "In dog years?" That's almost like when someone asks how much I weigh...in kgs or lbs? LOL! All that being said, I never lie..I see no purpose in it. But, I will start giving funny remarks before telling them from now on ;-)

   Lovelymo79 replied to Soliloquy's topic in Travel

   I just accepted my first assignment, which happened to be my first interview. It came fairly quickly so I consider myself lucky. I wonder if it has to do with speciality. I'm in CVICU.

5. Staying prn at "home" hospital

   Lovelymo79 replied to Lovelymo79's topic in Travel

   Well, I just accepted my first travel assignment...14 hours away! Lol. BUT, I am able to block schedule so I can work 6 days in a row and have off 8 (I do that all the time now) so I'll be able to fly home often. I'm leaving my dog at home with a roo...

6. Ga Board of Nurses by Endorsement questions & Frustrations

   Lovelymo79 replied to skittlebear's topic in Georgia

   I am trying to endorse my license from Texas but I just got an email stating 1) that my transcripts do not reflect a graduation date nor the type of degree I received. Well, I'm a diploma student so I didn't get a "degree". Also, my fingerprints were...

7. Texas Hospitals

   Lovelymo79 replied to ERpinup's topic in Travel

   To each their own. This "argument" comes up on here every once in awhile. I live and work in Texas and I have absolutely no complaints. I've never experienced any of the above. I'm about to go out of state to see how they do things in other places bu...

9. Staying prn at "home" hospital

   Lovelymo79 replied to Lovelymo79's topic in Travel

   Thanks for answering, NedRN. I have actually worked a year agency in addition to my full-time job so I'm pretty comfy with my skill-set and being at a new hospital. The 3-month leave would probably have to be agreed upon by my manager and director an...

    I've been talking to Medical Solutions to secure my first travel assignment. But as NedRN said, I have 3 other agencies working for me too. May the best offer for me win! ☺️

    Anything interesting so far? I am a charge nurse in CTICU and have about 3.5 years experience. I'm looking for any ICU, however. I signed up with about 4 agencies (looking to add one more) and will see which one gives me the better deal!
