New grad RN...relocation to Pensacola/Destin

Published

Specializes in Med/Surg.

Hi....I will graduate with my ASN in May 2005 and my husband and I are thinking about moving to NW Florida, probably the Destin/Sandestin area due to having family there, but are looking at Pensacola/Gulf Breeze/Ft. Walton areas too. Can anyone give me an idea what I can expect to make with 3 years LPN experience in med/surg hospital nursing, but as a new grad RN? Also, what is the cost of living like in those different areas? Is one area better than another? Any input you can give me will be appreciated. Thanks!
