   NurseKylie replied to RNWhit07's topic in Travel

   We definitely should! I'm planning on staying the couple days after, as are some people I know that went last year. I had never been to Vegas until last year at the conference. It was so much fun, but I think this year is going to be even better. The...

3. Travel Nursing Conference?

   NurseKylie replied to claudiatraveler's topic in Travel

   Well...I'm from the south...mainly Texas & Florida. I'm on an assignment in Baltimore, MD right now until mid-July and trying to get to Boston for the fall. Once I book my next one, I'll get tickets to Vegas :) I should probably go ahead and get ...

5. Are there pediatric travel jobs available?

   NurseKylie replied to lkpdx's topic in Travel

   Hi there! I'm a pediatric med-surg nurse and have not had any trouble finding a position in the last year of traveling. Now, I do agree with a lot of what Ashley said re: experience. Usually the minimum required to start traveling is 2 years, so you'...

6. Nursing Conference in Vegas-Oct

   NurseKylie replied to RNWhit07's topic in Travel

   I'll definitely be there :) I went last year and it was very informative and tons of fun. I'm not sure where I'll be leaving out of yet (pending my fall travel assignment) but I know some of us from last year were planning on staying the weekend afte...

7. Junk in the trunk

   NurseKylie replied to hardworkdedication's topic in Uniform/Gear

   hahaha I have the same issue! I've found that scrubs with an elastic waistband really help, like some Cherokees have. I really took a liking to Koi bottoms and the brand Rampage fits me really well.

8. Travel Nursing Conference?

   NurseKylie replied to claudiatraveler's topic in Travel

   I went to the traveler's conference in 2011 and it was so much fun! It's a great way to learn about life on the road, taxes, and network with other travelers. This year it is October 18-19 in Las Vegas at the Aria. Should be a blast :) Traveler's Con...

9. getting a CA license

   NurseKylie replied to sweetgurly25's topic in Travel

   I did the same thing last year about this time. I went from Texas to getting my CA license and because I was not in the state of CA, I had to do paper prints, send them in, and then they were sent to the FBI. Hence, the licensing process took a full ...

10. First-time traveler?? - need help!

    NurseKylie replied to Kathy643's topic in Travel

    I agree that 3 years is enough to start traveling since 2 years is usually the minimum requirement. Having 3 vs 4 years starting travel nursing doesn't seem to make a big difference, as long as you have the minimum. However, it does seem that many ho...

11. valley healthcare or flexcare??

    NurseKylie replied to ncnursie's topic in Travel

    I worked with Flexcare for 2 assignments from Aug 2011-Feb 2012 and the only reason I left was to get an assignment on the East Coast. At the time, they mainly had West Coast assignments (both mine being in CA) but now they have a new accounts manage...
