   Lub-Dub replied to Lub-Dub's topic in NICU

   Can I ask where you commuted from? And how long it took you? That's awesome-- I like busy! (as long as it's well-staffed..) Unfortunately if I pick up any extra shifts, above my 3/week, I'll only make $20/hour, so it probably won't be worth it for me...

   Lub-Dub replied to Lub-Dub's topic in NICU

   Thank you for your response and the ideas! I'm really excited to start at Brigham. It also seems like they're very "traveler friendly" since they hire travelers all the time. A nurse I work with used to work in the NICU there, and absolutely loved it...

   Lub-Dub replied to NJRN33's topic in Home Health

   Hey, I was just wondering what you decided to do about PSA? Did you end up bargaining/ taking the position, or did you decide it was just too little? I just got an email back from PSA (5 weeks after interviewing with them), inviting me to their 4-hou...

    Hi, I know this was a few years ago, but would anyone be able to tell me if Anastasia Jacobs is still the nurse recruiter of RWJUH? I'm trying to find out how to address the cover letter, and want to be sure before I send it. Thanks!
