CRUISE SHIP NURSING


Does anyone have any info/experience with nursing positions on a cruise ship? I've been on many cruises as a vacation and would love to get paid to do this.
Thanks!!!!

My old study buddy and I were interested about cruise ship nursing. We read articles online, asked around and found requirements. Years of ER and ICU/trauma experience is required along with an ACLS/CCRN/PALS certification. Most ships hire experienced RN's with advanced degrees. I was told most time is spent in the cruise. Room/board/meals are covered. You're oncall when not working. I don't know about hubby.

Here's a thread from here that would be helpful for some of your questions:
