Travelerjules, I'm moving close to the area you are working in, and I'm going to start traveling, too, in early November. What hospital are you working for and what company placed you there? I'm looking for some opportunities relatively close to home from time to time and need to know the options. Thanks!
I'm currently at a position in Tucson, AZ, the floor I work on is stressful, but the staff is so much fun to work with!!! The pay is excellent, especially for how cheap living expenses are here. The wage I make here are close and sometimes more than Cali wages and like I said, cost of living is muuuch lower here. Plus, I find if you find your own housing, you end up being able to pocket around half of your stipend (aaand it goes straight to my student loans)! Good luck with your travels!
Hey gnursjr. I had a quick question about S Cal travel. Shoot me a PM or email at [email protected]. Thanks!
Alaska's ANC hospital is the native/Indian hospital in Anchorage, Alaska. Google: Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium. I believe that there is also a student loan payback if you work for the BIA in the lower 48 states. The ANC hospital in Anchorage is a nice place to work & Alaska is AMAZING! It is such a huge state. I have been here for 6 months & only seen & done a fraction of what is available.

I live in Alaska and work in Anchorage. I hope you enjoy the state. I've only been here for 2 years and Love it!!!! I am working for a small surgical clinic/dr office. I love the people I work with and our patients are wonderful. I've been trying to get on with local hosp(s) here but am finding it very difficult. I graduated in 09 and my background is mostly hospice/home health. I am beating my head against a wall everywhere I go. I wish you the very best and hope you explore the state a bit before you leave.

Hey everybody, I'm planning on starting traveling in the spring. I want my first assignment to be in or near Philly (I have family there). I still want to travel to other places just for the experience. At the same time, I have two degrees worth of student loans in repayment right now, so $$ is important. What cities/ hospitals did you guys have the best time in?? Where did you get the best pay?? I always hear about California, but where else??
