Hello,

Try healthsouth or Kindred both are rehabs. I have worked at both of these via agency, it is ok. Health south offers immediate benifits and the pay is comparable. There is also Life care which is a Rehab hospital , I really liked working here. Every patient had a IV and it is constant running but it makes the day fly. I know Vitas Hospice is hiring for private duty right now. There is also a 2-10 opening at Renissance park for a LVN charge nurse. Let me know if there is anything alse I can help you with...:)

If you are looking for work as an LVN, branch into the agencies that service Dallas and Ft. Worth. They pay well and use agency LVN's frequently. I worked as an agency LVN in Dallas and Ft. Worth for 2 years and loved it. Sometimes you could get good contracts to stay in a facility for a period of time. If you are looking for FT hours in the hospital as their employee, it is a bit harder but not impossible....Good luck!!

The grass may look greener on the other side, but it's just as hard to mow :chuckle

Will be moving to the D/FW area in near future from Tn. Anyone know of requirements for licensing when changing between these two states? Can't wait to move back! Any information greatly appreciated
