Best Hospital Choices

[Deven 4]

Moving to Florida within the next six months. I am most interested in hospitals in the west central to central areas. Any information shared concerning salaries, nurse to patient ratio , as well as the general work environment would be great . Also looking to buy a home in these areas recommendations for the best places; home pricing , taxes , insurance . Thanks in advance. Deven 4:typing

I live in Tampa Bay on the west central coast.

Salaries are dependent on experience, but are generally in the mid-20's per hour.

Home prices are stable, but hurricaine insurance can run 1200-3000 per year depending on where you are in relation to a flood zone, the coastal/bay waters, etc.

Good luck.
