Recently divorced, looking for a fresh start--suggestions please

[epidermnurse]

Hi,

I've never posted before but I'm in need of some advice. I've been a nurse for less than a year with a med/surg and CCU backgrown. I've just finalized a divorce and need change. I married young and haven't experienced a lot yet. I would love to move and get a fresh start and finally have nothing in my life to hold me back.

Posting after posting on this site says it's impossible to find work right now. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Small town, teaching hospital, hot, cold--it doesn't matter. I would appreciate any ideas and/or support. Thanks!

Move to Omaha! :-) Smaller city, good teaching hospital (UNMC/Nebraska Med. Center) and PLENTY of job opportunities... New facilities opening all over! Not to expensive to live in and we have a great social scene, especially if you like music.

I found myself in the same shoes you are in when my first marriage ended, and Omaha gave me plenty of space and anonymity to start over.

Good luck with your brand new future!

(BTW- My parents are from the east coast, and moved here 31 years ago, I don't think they would ever leave.)
