I am considering a position at Largo Fl. Has anyone out there been there. Any advice? Thanks, carehope

What hospital is this so the rest of us can stay away? They are out there. I didnt return to MUSC because other travelers made me and several other nurses that it was having problems like this. It actually worked out great for us since by waiting a g...

I also had the same problem with cross country. I finally walked on the second assignment. I had to fight to get paid. They charged me for everything. I havent traveled since. To top it off a nurse friend was going to travel and I told her to make su...

I think nursing needs to get off this ridiculous subject. Most of us that do floor nursing knows you do not need a BSN to give expert care. Here in Ohio a good many of us have not found a sound reason to return to college for a BSN. That is another $...

Wow,and I thought it was just me thinking that. Ohio has really tightened up. In all ways. In the area i am working which has numerous hospitals ect. the pay is now lower then it has been in years. They are offering big... sign on bonuses but they ar...

I have to agree. People have really changed. I work in a Hospital in Cincinnati, Oh and we were all just discussing this same thing. we all agreed to that society has changed and the news media has made our jobs a nightmare. I am getting ready to go ...

I went with them and feel it is your recruter. Mine with my first assignment did find ok housing but she was very hard to get in touch with. The second assignment was a mess, I couldnt get paid and she was no where to be found. Others in the company ...

where or what hospital are you at? Help the rest avoid taking an assignment there at this time.

Hi brownie Sorry it has been so long but the computer has been down since the 6th of July. I am now in Cincinnati, Ohio. They finally did pay me but by then it was to late. I had already called another agency and My family was up in arms and insisti...

you need to speak with a nurse attorney and the pharmacy should have records of the ok to fill the script. When you call a script in the pharmacy they know if they have a legal script or not. X is the pharmacist and filled the script saying he filled...

Brownie The little motel you were talking about is now closed. It looks like it was nice. carehope

Hi Brownie,,, Everything with the hospital is going fiine. I am on hall 3. I here 2 is from hell! the problem i am having is with my agency. I was put on call a day last week and scheduled the rest and now today my recruter said i will onl...

Sorry I couldnt get back to you brownie but my computer was down. Well I am at Colleton, stated yesterday or sorta. I was told to be there at 6:45 by my agency and knowbody there knew why because nurse manager doesnt get in till 8 or 9 so was told by...

I am with crosscountry travelcorp and am very pleased. My rep is Katrina Morgan and she is always on top of things. My first assignment was MUSC in Charleston SC and the housing was awsome. Kristien is there housing rep and they will not put you in a...

I agree with all above. The teamwork is great. You won't see it on anyother shift. Nights rock! carehope

I am soon going to Waltersboro SC for assignment at Collenton Hospital. Has anyone ever been there? Any tips? I will be living in charleston SC , Waltersboro still has no decent housing close to the hospital. Also does anyone recomend any other hosp...

All i hope is that the people that had there hand in the decision to not give the ky nurses ratio limits and the right to work only their shift they are scheduled for have a long hospital stay! You wonder why no one wants to work in this field any...

thank You all! Do any of you have a company that you recomend that do 4 week assignments?

I have just come from one of the worsst units in my whole career. I did figure out in the 13 weeks I have been there that the nurse manager was a big player in nurturing this behavior. In the last 10 years this behavior has increased 10 fold. I don't...

jeffccu I also am a first time traveler and same thing has happened are you at MUSC in sc? I am with cross country and all they care about is they found another body for the hospital . These are big contracts and big money for them. You are a comodi...

I AM PROUD TO BE A NURSE! I just don't know if i could recomend it to any one?It is getting harder every day.
