  1. RV's anyone???

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to RNERHOUSESUPOR's topic in Travel

    That's a good question. I am hoping that there is a wireless high speed system in South Florida, similar to the one I am using right now in Western Kansas. I know that Bell South will have some type...

  2. RV's anyone???

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to RNERHOUSESUPOR's topic in Travel

    Got verification that my Florida License is now Clear and Active, so I had better get busy with searching for some type of RV, a place to work, a place to park an RV close to where I work and a...

  3. recruiters

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to cvryder's topic in Travel

    Your recruiter can make or break your experience, no matter how good your assignment is or could be. That is soo true. One of the reasons I left travelling was my favorite recruiter no longer worked...

  4. Dang shoes!!!

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to ortess1971's topic in Operating Room

    The Cardiovascular Surgeon told me about Merrills (possible spelling error, they are in the locker at work and I am at home.). They are a slip on with just a small heel rise, almost a clog but stay on...

  5. 1 or 2 company's

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to pedsrn8's topic in Travel

    When I travelled in the 90's I was signed up with 8 companies. It was a lot of work but I was able to find the most assignments that way. Usually only took an assignment with one or two companies back...

  6. advice on driving CA-CO

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to Hannahrn's topic in Travel

    I would choose I 70 also. Just remember you are driving a truck and you need to pay attention to all those signs you probably ignore in your car. When the sign says sharp turn 25 MPH speed limit, you...

  7. how's reno?

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to lcraigbsn's topic in Travel

    I traveled to Reno several years ago and wouldn't worry too much about the housing. They were constantly builiding and most places are quite nice. You won't find better recreational areas and some of...

  8. Cvor

    RNERHOUSESUPOR posted a topic in Travel

    Are there any CVOR or OR nurses who travel?? I currently work in the CVOR and really like it. Have worked OR and it's ok too. Mostly Scrub but can circulate in the CVOR and assist with circulation in...

  9. Travel Nurse Question

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to twiceaslucky's topic in Travel

    In my opinion, to be a travel nurse you have to feel like you can work anywhere, with anyone and with anything. If you can't or don't you probably shouldn't take the travel assignment. You need to be...

  10. Weekend travel assignments

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to twiceaslucky's topic in Travel

    It's not hard to get people to "let" you work every Friday and Saturday, but you will have to work one other shift too. If you work nights I highly recommend working 6 on and 8 off or 7 and 7 if...

  11. RV's anyone???

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to RNERHOUSESUPOR's topic in Travel

    Hey, Thanks for doing the Sticky sure makes it easier to find and see if there are any new posts. I'm currently in west central Kansas right now. Saw a few motorhomes last week but didn't have the...

  12. Alaska?

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to jenny031's topic in Travel

    Thanks for the post. If you read the RV's Anyone posts you will already know that I have committed to myself the this fall I will start traveling again. On my long drive from Kansas to Florida I was...

  13. RV's anyone???

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to RNERHOUSESUPOR's topic in Travel

    Yesterday was the final straw. Nine hours without a break and then being told I only had 30 minutes to eat before I needed to relieve my "supervisor" so she could go pick up something for her husband...

  14. RV's anyone???

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to RNERHOUSESUPOR's topic in Travel

    Not much action on this post lately maybe moving to top of list will bring more information. Have visited relatives who are "Snowbirds" and they pull a 5th wheel. Have encouraged me to go with the...

  15. Skirts in the OR

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to MoriahRoseRN's topic in Operating Room

    Just a little TMI

  16. Skirts in the OR

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to MoriahRoseRN's topic in Operating Room

    Many of you may not remember but there used to be scrub dresses that the nurses wore in the OR. They were quite the outfit. It was a wrap around design simular to a scrub gown only they tied in front....

  17. Unemployment questions

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to corbon's topic in Travel

    Back in the day when I first traveled, it was considered very bad form to call in sick as a traveler. You are there because they don't have enough nurses to fill the open positions. I understand...

  18. Cruise Ships

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to NickiLaughs's topic in Travel

    I was on an Alaska Cruise last summer and thought it would be great to work the ship. What state license would you need? The crew I spoke with on the ship said they had to sign on for 6 months. How...

  19. Questions about traveling nurse in Kona Hawaii

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to swater's topic in Travel

    Hey, What Specialties are they using in Hilo? I have ER, and OR but don't want to work ICU or any of the Med Surg floors. Would love to spend 13 weeks on Hawaii exploring, especially if the agency...

  20. Is it true that OR nurses......

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to spinyerselfdizy's topic in Operating Room

    I worked in the Emergency Department for years, often wanting to check out the OR but when I tried to get a postion they always stuck me in the ER first. I have now worked in the OR for over two years...

  21. Alaska?

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to jenny031's topic in Travel

    I don't know anything about it now, but in 1990 I knew a nurse who was set to travel to Alaska. She had plans to go to several assignments and they would be cancelled at the last minute she finally...

  22. Who attends/attended Indian Hills Communtity College

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to S.N. Visit's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I graduated in 1989 from IHCC as an ADN. I have worked with many BSN's who have much less experience and patient care training. My first job as an RN was a travel position in Oakland, CA. and I...

  23. RV's anyone???

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to RNERHOUSESUPOR's topic in Travel

    Thanks for the quick responses. Scarpbooker06, you will have to let me know how it works out for you . What type did you choose? I worked with a couple in South Florida who had a travel trailer and a...

  24. Thinking of traveling to Reno

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to Buford 1's topic in Travel

    Reno was a great assignment for me. It was in the winter of 1990 though and I worked at St Mary's. Guaranteed OT is not a good thing. It leads to manditory OT and when you travel you need your time...

  25. Have you worked outside the OR?

    RNERHOUSESUPOR replied to findingmywayRN's topic in Operating Room

    Spent 15 years in ER, House Supervisor and Office Nursing. Am most glad to finally find a place in the
