So you're a travel nurse, meeting new people all the time, and answering the raised eyebrow questions from your skeptical aunts. Which one is your favorite, or should I say, least favorite question...

As a fellow young nurse who is feeling the desire to go back, but unsure of the responsibilities, let me say, that if I had the chance right now, I would do it! I can't because I'm a travel nurse and...

I would say they probably will, they invested the money to train you so the company should keep you! And if they want to be shady about it, well then take your training and go to Fresenius! :)

I use Craigslist, I search with key word furnished or all inclusive. You can often find a place with all utilities included, even high speed Internet and cable. You can find places with washer and...

I asked my recruiter what will be supplied and he found out! It's a good thing I did because they only supplied bare minimum. I had to bring dishes, pots, pans, cups, bedding, towels, pillows,...

Simply put, how difficult was it for your to transition into direct contracts? Do you work with established relationships with departments that you have developed over the years? Is there a lot of...

I have talked with American traveler. They seem nice but limited jobs for dialysis nurses. Check inbox.

Taking my new assignment in Denver. Has anyone worked at Denver Health Medical Center? How was your experience. I found limited reviews. In any case I'm gonna take the assignment. I'm in dialysis....

Wow are you serious? How can they even get away with such things? so the nurses are basically actresses? What city is it?

What do you mean, the government end of dialysis?

Fresenius is an international company! I have met many nurses who have done dialysis all over the world. I hope you can find an equally fulfilling job.

I remember when a newspaper in my area came out with an article talking about how dialysis clinics were a death trap and the mortality rates were terrible, etc. We had a patient that wrote in a...

Makes you wonder why they would send you there if your agency knew it was that bad! I'd be kinda mad, like what other known disaster areas am I going to?

Sounds kind of low you're right, but its not gonna get a whole lot better. Meaning it would be hard to find a place that offered you $50. The taxable rates always seem to be in the low $20s anymore...

That's how we did it too in the chronic clinic. I dont remember it being a problem when state came, but i can see how it is. In acutes, we have a little table at the foot of the bed or chair and...

Yay!! Very happy to hear this. As the Saying goes, you will either love it or hate it. I love it and I feel like I could do it for the long haul! I feel so blessed to have fallen into this specialty....

Hmm me too! Well should I continue to do this for a long time I may look into it. I've sort of built a rapport with a couple recruiters and I think they would have my back at this point, so as long...

Yes I hold 6 licenses. I think of course it is worth the effort. And I have a good character, so it wouldn't make sense to let something like underage beer carrying stop me from dreaming big. Lets...

I thought about signing up with them, but they were hard to reach. I sent in application and never heard back. Maybe because I don't work directly for them. I don't know their policies and procedures...

How are their benefits package for travel nurses? Do you still get to choose where you want? Can you take time off between assignments? Do you get housing and meal reimbursements tax-free? Is their...

As a fellow nurse that has an issue on my background (misdemeanor for underage possession of beer a long time ago), I can tell you that getting a license anywhere, temp or perm has been very...

Make friends with the techs and don't let the patients notice that you are nervous (if you are). Walk in there with a great attitude, a team driven sense of work ethic, offer to help the techs and...

Oh also, how to get started. Well start by doing research about how travel nursing pay works, what does tax-free vs taxable income mean, research licensing processes in different states, start...

I had a very good experience starting out with foundation medical staffing. I think for a first time traveler, they were great. They were honest, fair, and there were no hidden secrets. Of course...

I am a dialysis traveler. I can recommend looking into foundation medical staffing and quik travel staffing. I would stay away from nurses rx, but that is my opinion only. I would probably only work...
