Please help me

Hi everybody,

I'm a RN with 6+ years of experience(6 years Neuro ICU(INDIA+UK), 4 Months(USA) Neonatal ICU experience). You may wonder why i moved NICU. Because it's my dream job.

Currently i'm working at one of the hospital in Kansas & planning to move to CA (either San diego or San francisco-don't know yet) because of my husband's job & the weather.

I'm working with my visa (EAD card) ,getting $27/hr now. Since we don't know anything about CA , I request you to kindly answer my questions.

1.could you please list some of the hospitals where can i get NICU jobs with appropriate pay & benefits?(both San diego & San francisco)

2.Nice, safe, cheaper(affordable) place to live in CA?

3.I'm pregnant (3 months) is that difficult to get a job because of this reason?when i move to CA, it'll be my 5th month.

4.Is there any hospitals that provide relocation allowance?

5.How much should i ask my employer to pay me per hour?which is appropriate for my years of experience?

Please answer my question as much as you can. If you could add any other info will be appreciated.

I did post this in oter thread but there is no reply. So i'm putting here,at least ome NICU nurses wil help. If you could tell me which hospitals are good(for NICU) to work either in san diego or san francisco that will be great.

Thanks in advance

Lilly
