Travel to Tampa area next winter

[tealrosie33]

Anyone spend past winter in Tampa?

Thinking of traveling there next winter. I know Baycare hires their own travelers and provides housing. Wondering how the housing is?? Any thoughts if this is better than using an agency???

Thankyou!!

I spent last winter in Tampa, but not with Baycare. If I ever went back I would go through them though. I've heard good things about the company as well as the housing. I was told by a few people it was over in Clearwater on the beach so that's a plus. I wasn't a fan of the Florida Hospitals ( I was in Zephyrhills-avoid that place) but at least with Baycare I hear you can pick and choose which places you will work in. Hope this helps!

I think it's a great place to work. I do mobile pool, i did live in the housing but not anymore. The housing is nice, but it's on the Bay, not the beach. The difference is there's water, but no sand or beach...

Any specific questions, let me know...

I live in FL and used to work for Baycare. Loved it! No matter where they house you in Pinellas County, you aren't more than 20 minutes from a great beach. Hospitals include: Morton Plant, Mease Countryside, Mease Dunedin, North Bay, St. Anthony's, St. Joseph's, and more, but try to get into one of those if you're a beach-lover.
