   Hi Holistic! Can't respond back to your message, but have been in contact with your recruiter :) Don't think she's going to be able to find a position that fits my needs this go round...but maybe when we get back from our Italy vacation in April! Th...

2. Anyone done an assignment in Clinton, MD

   OBnurse95 replied to OBnurse95's topic in Travel

   No Cali license and after looking at their BON site to apply, it appears that I will have to take Microbiology class with a lab. When I graduated from our nursing program, micro was incorporated into the nursing curriculum, not a separate class. So...

3. Anyone done an assignment in Clinton, MD

   OBnurse95 replied to OBnurse95's topic in Travel

   Thanks BluntForceTrauma...had one recruiter tell me that Maryland is a walk through state, and Faststaff recruiter told me it's not...takes about 3 weeks for license (the opening is posted for 2/13-3/15), so I would have time to apply. Only hitch is...

   I have seen several travel positions listed for Clinton, MD. Has anyone out there done an assignment there? Holy cow, they have a bunch of openings! I believe it is Southern Maryland Hospital. Thanks in advance!

5. Rude recruiter!!!

   OBnurse95 replied to ERjunkie38's topic in Travel

   I had a recruiter (4 years ago) submit my application at an East Coast (Florida) hospital that we never discussed!!! The manager called me for a telephone interview! I'm sure I sounded like a moron repeating "where are you located? how did you get m...

   What kind of testing are you concerned with? I took an online basic nursing exam through RN Network when I did my travel assignment 4 years ago...I was more concerned with medications, since we basically deal with antepartum, labor and postpartum dr...

7. who intubates?

   OBnurse95 replied to nocturnalnurse's topic in Ob/Gyn

   Our RT people intubate and are NRP certified! We also have NICU, but, when I started working at our hospital 18 years ago, we didn't have NICU and relied on our Resp. Therapist to attend all of our deliveries.

   I think I have to be a member of this site a little longer before I can PM? Or maybe I just haven't figured it out LOL! Can you PM me? I am interested!

11. Ready to start again in January...

    OBnurse95 replied to OBnurse95's topic in Travel

    That makes sense...It would be nice if they at least said they'd get back with me after the holidays. I actually had one recruiter leave a voice mail on my home phone (I was outside and heard it ringing, but didn't get to it in time), and I called h...

    OBnurse95 posted a topic in Travel

    I've been an L&D nurse at the same hospital for the past 18 years. In January of 2009 I took a leave of absence and did a 13 week assignment in Maine. Had a great time (other than the weather!), but the travel market somewhat crashed, so I deci...

    Best of luck to you!!! I am getting excited at the prospect of a new horizon =)

14. Am I nuts? Travel OB?

    OBnurse95 replied to Fyreflie's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I did a travel assignment back in 2009. My hospital also let me stay on as a pool member. It was fun and I'd love to do it again. My husband couldn't stay with me during the 13 week assignment as we have 2 dogs and he was wrapping up work of his o...
