I'm a traveler from the piedmont of NC, but I just finished up an assignment in New Bern, NC at Craven Regional Hospital. It's a beautiful area, and the people there are awesome. The town sits right on the river, and the beach is only 30 minutes away...

I am getting ready to start my first travel assignment, for 13 weeks. My husband will be traveling with me. (non-RN) I'll be at least 4 hours from my home, and I was just wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what you usually take with you on ...

most of the companies i've looked into require at least one year of experience in acute care. But the more the better. You need to make sure you are comfortable with your skills before setting out in traveling.
I am so excited about getting started in traveling!!! I am a reletively new nurse, only been working about a year and a half. But I am very unhappy in my current job and was looking for a way out. A friend of mine from school has been traveling for ...

I was in no way thinking that I wanted to be in charge, all I want is to go in, take care of the pt.'s and be done. I don't want to supervise (not ready yet) The only reason i put in the comment about the nurse that knows it all (whom i don't have a ...
Kinda long, Sorry, Okay I graduated may 2005, I immediately started working at the outpatient dialysis center that I have been at since I started my last year in school. The manager knew when the offered me the RN position that I had already accepted...
I most definitely agree that students should be there to learn and not interfere. I know that sounds harsh, but I too am a new grad (may 2005), and I also love to precept students (I even plan on going back to school so I can teach) Thankfully I have...
I know that I shouldn't laugh at others but this was a little personal victory of mine that I need to share. This made my day. About 2 years ago I worked in a nursing home as a CNA while I was in school. I didn't tell many people, because I was only ...

I'm not a LPN, but can I say, go for the crocs!!! I am telling you, you will not be sorry. 12 hours and no sore feet, believe me, I love mine I wear them all the time (cleaning after I leave the hospital of course) you can get them online, or at hal...
Has anyone found a book or website that helps in learning rhythms? I'm a new grad, that works in step-down ICU and I feel somewhat comfortable with interpreting but would like some practice. J/W if any one else had the same problem.
