MSN Staffing......

I work for Mercy Nursing Services in ILL. I'm a CNA however. Is that the same agency you are adking about?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew or worked for MSN. I have been thinking about doing some per diem work for a local agency. I spoke with a Rep from MSN this morning and she listed about 6 hospitals in the Birmingham area that they staff for. I also love the fact that it is daily pay.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I am doing per diem for MSN in Ct. Using the bank card for daily pay is great. Most likely each branch operates differently. I find I have to stay on top of my own schedule to make sure I am getting placed each week.

I think it depends on the personality of your scheduler, and how on the ball they are. I do not work hospitals anymore only LTC. Hospitals will pay a higher rate. Mostly I like this agency. Because you are doing critical care, you should also get a higher rate.

I signed on with MSN. Here in my parts they have a really good rep. I have yet to do any shifts with them as I am still postpartum, but I plan to in the near future. The daily pay is a BIG plus!

I interviewed and signed on with MSN today. I heard about them from a work mate who recommended them. The interview went well, and I liked the atmosphere. So far, so good.

Each office is going to be different. Here in Kansas City, they were always pretty weak and lower pay than most others. They closed in KC about 6 months ago. On the corporate level, they appear to really be struggling financially. Just take a look at their stock.... yuck.

I work for MSN(Medical Staffing Network) doing per diem work.

I did a 13 week assignment with them, which is how I landed my first FT PACU job. When I did the 13 week assignment, I was paid weekly, opting to take and use the bank card to access my pay. They always were concerned about how I was making out or if I was running into any problems and if there was an emergency that I required same day pay, they were excellent about taking care of it for me.

As far as per diem goes, that has been a different ball of wax than a 13 week assignment. I found that they did not look into a facility when they were notified of bad situations or poor treatment of agency nurses. They tend to treat the per diem nurse more like you are on call and I found that the facility that I was doing the most per diem for did a lot of last minute cancelations. Over all not a horrible experience.

I would imagine that each regional office operates differently. But over all, I would have to give MSN a favorable report.
