Hi and welcome to the site

Moving this to the Florida forum

I am just a first semester student so I don't know alot about the facilities, but I do know that ORMC, Orlando Regional Medical Center is pretty awesome There are a couple differant locations. It has a burn unit and it is a Trauma Center.

The other major hopitals around here are Celebration Hospital, Florida Hospital - with about 5 locations, Health Central and St. Cloud Hospital. I actually haven't heard bad about any of the Hospitals.

I used to live in Tampa and heard good things about Tampa General and UCH - University Community Hospital.

I also used to live in Lakeland and the hospital there is LRMC, Lakeland Regional Medical Center. I did not hear much good about that hospital. The big complaint was that is was way overcrowded and understaffed. Turned patients away alot.

The Moffit center is willing to hire a new grad after 6 months on a med/surg floor so they'd most likely be willing to hire an RN with your experience, i don't know their website off hand but I'm sure it'll come up in a google search, good luck!
