I worked for an agency in Atlanta called TPN(?Total Professional Nursing), that offered daily pay(mostly long term care assignments) and an agency called ParaQuad Services that offered homecare assignments with pretty flexible scheduling.

Depending on where you're moving from, you may find ATL pay rates to be fairly low. I would encourage you to research before moving.(I wish I had)

Endorsement, for me, took about 3 months coming from California. It was an expensive and lengthy process. Georgia requested license verification($$$) from each state I had ever been licensed in as well as verification of hours worked from previous employers. It may be different for each person but this was my experience.

Thanks. When I looked that info up online to get endorsed I knew it would be. I will look further into the possibilities. Thank you so much. :)

Hi I moved here in the end of July.I bought a little Townhouse.I let the agency Paraquat know I was coming2 months in advance.Drove all the way out to Marietta,and have not worked 1 day for them yet! they booked me like 2 weeks in advance,and If I did not call them the half a day before I was to work, have gotten up at 4Am to get to the job.with no pt.Then a pt. (went in hosp.that couldn't be helped)3.Then myself with over 15 yrs exp. as (vent/psych nurse)went with two other nurses.to a job and they didn't want us.so that's that.The other agency I am with slim pickings.Lots of promises.Very little work.In the two months I have been here I have made 5days pay with two agency's and as far a ''Nurse finders''there COMPLETLY dead in the water.Promised me flu shots for 3 Months worth of work, came down to the 12 hour and they are using the nurses from last year etc.promises,promises.No work for LPN's if someone knows something I DONT please tell me.as I will have to lock up my new house and do travel assignments.I cant eat promises.
