[Runner428]

Does anyone know if Sentara Health System uses travelers or agencies nurses? And if so, what companies/agencies do they use? And if not, why don't they use travelers or agency?

your best bet is to contact the nurse recruitment or human resource office of one of the sentara hospitals directly. additionally, you may want to sign up (usually online) with the many agencies and request any assignment they may have with sentara. there are way too many headhunters and other agencies soliciting nurses right now. it may be hard to rely upon only the responses that you receive from this site (example: you may find one nurse who works for maxim; three may work for novapro and ten may work for cross country - all nurses working in different departments who do not know/may not even be aware of the other nurses at the same facility).

good luck! :wink2:
