Re: Why won't anybody call me?
Not all hospitals are paid through property taxes, though UMC definitely is! Maybe try contacting the NMs of some of the corporate hospitals (HCA, Valley Health) in person?
Something else that I have heard (but not verified) is that many hospitals (not just in Las Vegas, but nationwide) are trying to avoid hiring full time nurses, but are trying to fill part time and PRN slot so that they can avoid paying benefits. Maybe working a couple PRN jobs at a couple different hospitals (at the higher hourly rate) would be a way to pay your bills and afford paying health insurance on your own.
If they don't even call back for PRN or part time positions, PM me, I may be able to come up with a couple of agencies that are hiring.
Good luck!
