Introductions

Hi everyone! I just thought I'd start the new State forums off with an introduction thread. Please feel free to reply to this thread if you wish. Otherwise, feel free to start a new topic if you wish to discuss other topics that are local or state related. Enjoy!

Hey!!!!! Hot Springs is an awesome area. I applied like forever to work in the VA there but no answers...multiple apps etc.

I worked in RC but they go thru job cuts too and pay cuts and travel nursing cuts.

I am having a hard time finding a job as a regular stiff or travel nurse in the Midwest right now so I am here in Cheyenne WY.

Tell me what its like to work there...do u like it? should I keep on keeping on with the application thing? :typing

I appreciate any information u could provide. I would be glad to give u more info on me if u like, like I am a female originally from Huron SD. went to DWU...later in life but have since worked as a travel nurse for last 5 going on 6 years. I am huge pet fan as I worked as a vet tech for almost 20 years before I became a nurse. :paw:

If u would like to send me a pm, as I worked in the VA in SFalls for over 2 years and some of my best friends are still from when I met them there.

Thanks for responding if and when u can.
