  6. If you would like to work for state corrections, google AZ state ADC and there should be a healthcare employment link. I would recommend that you complete the app and call the prisons in which you...
  7. Sierra Vista area

    When I worked at the hospital there, we had a couple of travelers. I would try for something starting in Oct. or Nov. That's when we started getting really busy. I believe the bad part was called...

  11. physicals for the uninsured??

    I know the clinic in the Frys grocery store on Dysart (Avondale) does school physicals for $29. I'm not sure if that is just for kids or would be good for an adult physical as well. I believe it is...
  12. Looking for RNs in Chambersburg!

    Well, I heard they were. I think it depends on what floor/unit. I was looking at their Med/Surg and I thought the ortho floor (where they had needs at the time) wasn't staffed too well. I also...
  13. Looking for RNs in Chambersburg!

    Hi, We moved from Chambersburg almost a year ago. I interviewed at the hospital, but didn't accept the position d/t some concerns about ratios. I thought the pay was quite good, though. I ended up...

    How are the ratios on med/surg? We were living in Chambersburg and moved away, but now we are looking at moving back. What is your opinion on Chbg vs. Carlisle Hospitals? Are wages similar? I sure do...

    Oh, forgot to add that I believe there is a Federal prison in the Cumberland area and I believe you would be employed by the govt. and not a
  16. CMS and others

    Hi, Yes, it was Hagerstown. Hagerstown did not have any govt. nurses left. I believe CMS currently holds the contract for all MD state prisons, but I could be wrong. There are probably a few state...
  17. CMS and others

    I worked for CMS at a MD prison before we moved to AZ. I had a great supervisor and it was a bit of a difficult transition intially, but then I learned to really enjoy it. I believe pay was in the...

    That explains a lot!!!
  21. Pick my employer :)

    Hi everyone, Well, I think I may go back to working in a hospital, but I'm not sure which one. I've been a nurse since 1994 and worked in a variety of settings, but generally tried to avoid...

  23. If working per-diem, how do you submit your paperwork?

    Just thought of another question. If paid by the visit, are you paid during orientation?

  25. Where should we live??

    I wouldn't hesitate to rent/buy in Arrowhead. We almost bought there (ended up in Goodyear) and it is quite nice with several hospitals within commuting distance. I agree with RainDreamer that one...
