Any Recommedations for Fall?

Am in Seattle right now, and have not decided where I want to head next. I do not want winter weather. I don't deal well with the bitter cold, and really despise snow and ice. I have already done assignments in both northern and southern California. Home is in the South, but not sure if I want to head back there just yet.

So, any ideas for a great place to go? My contract in Seattle ends on 9/1, so this would be for a fall assignment.

Thanks for your input! :lol2::welcome:

PS - please forgive my typo in the subject line of the message!!!!!!

I took a travel assignment in Naples, Florida last winter- it's beautiful! Anywhere in Florida will be warmer in the winter & there are TONS of travel jobs in FL during the winter. Just apply for your license early- it can take up to a month.

Good to know -I too am looking for somewhere warm to go to for the winter. Anybody else got suggestions?

StayseeRN, what hospital are you working at in Seattle, I interviewed wtih one today....

Ratings for SW Florida Hospitals that take in travelers

Naples Hospital: High marks, treat travelers well, however this year they cut a lot of travelers contracts short by one month which messed a lot of nurses life plans.

North Collier Hospital: Treat travelers really well, also cut travlers contracts short with little notice, by one month. Left a lot of nurses scrambling to find another travel spot

Lee Memorial: Trauma hospital, pay is lower than other counties in Florida and acuity is high. The area is not as nice as Naples or Charlotte county

Peace River: Treat travlers really well and pays better than Naples or Lee Memorial. Nice area to live, lots of opportunities for overtime. They respect travlers enough not to cut short their contract,

Sarasota Memorial, Nice area to live, pay is better than naples and Lee Memorial and they try to arrange schedule to meet your needs. Acuity level is high and high pt - nurse ratio. Is a magnet hospital that is loosing its luster, most of the experienced nurses are leaving due to poor management. One to avoid until they work out staffing problems.

Tampa- St Josephs; High pay, great working conditions, great schedules to meet your needs, fun city to live in. Management treats nurses well and listens. This is a "10", accept an assignment here and enjoy what Florida has to offer.

I am also looking to travel to Seattle in the near future. What has your experience been like?
