Hey Jeff,

Welcome to AllNurses. I live in a small town about 35 miles between Dayton and Cincinnati equally. Yep, you're right, all work and no play makes for grumpy nurses, (and others also).

I work in inpatient rehab. For fun, well, in the words of Cindy Lauper......

Girls just wanna have fun!!!

I'm in Dayton right now, attending WSU!

we're neighbors....lol

I'm in Dayton. Attending Sinclair & working at a dialysis center (as a tech).

What do you think of the whole Premier/Anthem thingie?

Working and no fun makes a nurse real grumpy. Any nurses looking to talk about issues?

write me....

I currently work in a local dayton hopital, I work and play is very seldom. You are right. People say, "we need a life outside of work." Let's see: Mandatory inservices, staff meetings, working when the unit is short, getting called at home about an issue.

When, for the Love of God, do we have time for ourselves. :angryfire

And I don't even want to know what new grads are makin, I think I would have to be ill. lol.

I live in Dayton proper. More of a music buff than sports buff. um...whatelse can I say. Well, have a great day.

:balloons: welcome jeff! :)

i was born and raised in dayton, oh! i am a proud graduate of sinclair college....always had a 97-100% pass rate on the nclex. i still have family and friends living there, and hope to visit them all sometime this year (when the money situation improves for me)

what kind of nursing do you do? :)

I am an LPN from OH, a small town about 40 miles from Dayton. I am in Montana right now on a travel assignment. I love it! If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I travel with a dog but I'm sure humans would be much better conversation... :)

Awesome!!!! i actually have a ton of questions...if you dont mind me asking what is the ave pay for traveling nurses, i have heard it is better than if you were a regular employee..also, do they provide housing or how much does it cost? ive looked into a few diff agencies and i think some provide for free others make you pay, also some nurses have told me to just get a hotel room but i dont think i could live in a hotel...also...i heard regular staff nurses dont take to well to travelers..have you seen that in your travels?? anyway...where all have you been and where do you like the best??? Thanks for the opportunity to ask all these questions...

I have done travel nursing off and on for a long time, and I have never been mistreated or snubbed by the staff I've worked with. The staff at my last assignment in California was SUPER!!! Couldn't have asked for a better team of healthcare providers! They were awesome to work with, and treated me just fine! :)

I've heard other travel nurses and agency nurses say they weren't treated well as "outsiders", and that's a shame because we are there to help make their workload lighter by adding to the staff.

Anymore, the pay isn't as high as it used to be, and some agencies housing sucks bigtime, so you've got to be careful which company you travel with, and what type of housing they provide for you. Ask lots of questions, and check out travel nurse forums to read about good companies vs. companies to steer clear from. :)
