by FNP-2-BE 2:41 amHi. I did not sign a contract yet but they are putting it together now. Mind you this is my first assignment and I am going from Phila to Buffalo. Does 45/hr with me finding the housing sound right? Thats what I was told, but will receive the contract today. The recruiter said it would be 28/hr if they supplied accomadations.
What should I be asking for also? Is there usually reimbursement for travel? I know I am getting a 1000 bonus upon completion. I just dont know what to look for since this is my first assignment and new to me.
Thanks,
Tim

12:49 pm by NedRN$45 is decent. But who knows where that number comes from and how it will be broken up (it might include your completion bonus which is effectively $2 an hour). $27 plus housing sounds bad but upstate NY pays poorly. $18 for housing is excessive, but they may be trying hard to get you to do the work - is this Supplemental by any chance? Travel reimbursement is the norm, but may be coming out of your total. The usual travel reimbursement is $500/600 from most agencies, but it must be limited by 55.5 cents a mile max. In your case, it must be less because you are not going that far. - 2:30 pm by Chesire999Tim,
Have you checked on the cost of housing? A lot of places won't rent for short term and you will need furnished. Beware of Craigslist rentals too, if they're too good to be true, they are! Check on the Delphi Forum Nursing Travel board for nurses that have been to that area.
