Published

Greetings Everyone & Happy Memorial Day weekend! Be safe !! & Thank you to ALL Veterans who have served in war & peacetime!!

I have 18 mo Med-Surg experience & have considered traveling from the beginning....

I'd LOVE to hear about your 1st experience....bad/good....scared?? How you did? Did it work out, etc etc etc....ANYTHING you'd care 2 share w/someone who is considering traveling.....

Way back when, also, I believe there was a thread or post that had Qs to ask as a traveler....does that still exist?

Thank you in advance for your valuable time!! Appreciate it!

You might want to indicate if you are male of female. As a male nurse I had a much different experience than some of the female nurses. It is a great experience, but not for all.

How so, Rod? Easier for men I'm assuming?

There are a lot less men in nursing and I won't say it's easier, just different. I don't worry about driving, parking or being able to lift and move my stuff. It does seem that some of the Male Doc's treat Male Nurse's differently at first, human nature maybe? I see you are asking as a female, so I don't have any real information unless you have specific questions.
