3. I'm scared to travel!

   Take an assignment that is only 36hrs per week. That will leave you with four days to explore. Colorado is one of the lower paying states. I was scared and contemplated for a year or so before I finally did. I travel alone as well, 30 yo female. I am...

   devulms21 replied to PattyH112's topic in Travel

   I'm pretty sure AMN has the vendor for that hospital. Which is unfortunate bc they are a terrible company. I worked with Onward at MGH. Onward is now a part of AMN & had a really bad experience with that company. Other agencies not affiliated wit...

   devulms21 replied to michlynn's topic in Travel

   What will be your weekly take home? I'm at MGH now along with several other travelers. Pay for the particular hospital is definitely not that great.

    Do you have facebook? There are several groups on there where travelers share things like that. I have found it much more useful than this website. I haven't had a travel job yet but your same type of question is asked frequently on those boards. I h...
