    You could live in Buckhead and work at Egleston. Not as good as picking someplace closer to Emory (depending on your familial status), but certainly reasonable.

    If you are comparing hospitals, Egleston is probably as good as they come for nurses. They don't pay as well as I made in the northeast, but they sure pay better than I was offered in Tenn., TX, and Fla.

    why work per diem or registry? work as your own independent nurse contractor. you set your rate and offer it to HR. they will save money by not having to pay a middleman. i worked at northside--it is a great hospital and they really treat their employees well.

    I am thinking of relocating to Atlanta. I am interested in Grady because I would like to work in the burn unit there and eventually go on to get my masters specializing in dermatology. Can anyone tell me anything about good areas near there to live and the commute? Also, I have a 6 year old son the the quality of the school he will be attending is of UTMOST importance to me. Any opinions will be appreciated! <=
