  2. RV's anyone???

    nursetaminator replied to RNERHOUSESUPOR's topic in Travel

    Research, research, research. Join lots of different on-line groups (nursing and RV), read through previous posts, ask informed questions, etc. It can be done. But you need to thoroughly educate...

  6. Getting a PRN job in cardiac with Parralon?

    nursetaminator replied to nyc2011's topic in Cardiac

    Parallon is the vendor management company for HCA facilities and they are a legitimate company. They handle per diem and travel contracts for HCA facilities among other things. There are a wide...

  7. Let's Talk Pay: Med-Surg

    nursetaminator replied to Soliloquy's topic in Travel

    I wouldn't take a taxable hourly rate less than $18/hr which is pretty standard "thinking" in the travel world. The hourly pay needs to be a little closer in line to what staff makes, which for Texas...

  8. Traveling in an RV

    nursetaminator replied to ChristineAdrianaRN's topic in Travel

    My husband and I travel in our RV. It can be a lot of work finding campgrounds close to the job and not paying an arm and a leg. And we're restricted by the weather sometimes. Really wanted to take...

  9. what should you insist on in a contract?

    nursetaminator replied to RobotNurse's topic in Travel

    That was awesome!!! LOL!!! MsConstrued: my base pay rate is $18/hr and my holiday rate is $27. Not sure what the "rules" are. Pluses and minuses to holidays. I actually prefer to work them bc...

  10. what should you insist on in a contract?

    nursetaminator replied to RobotNurse's topic in Travel

    New recruiter time if he/she has any condescending tone in their voice like that. Those are straight up hard sales tactics and that's the last thing you need in a recruiter. It should be a...

  11. what should you insist on in a contract?

    nursetaminator replied to RobotNurse's topic in Travel

    So your recruiter won't respond to your messages when you have concerns about a contract presented to you but the recruiter pushes you to make decisions about your next assignment? Sounds like a car...

  12. Texas Hospitals

    nursetaminator replied to ERpinup's topic in Travel

    To the OP: there are lots of great places in Texas to work. And there are some places that suck (Conroe I've heard). It's just like everywhere else. Usually it comes down to specific facilities....

  13. Any excelsior grads who travel

    nursetaminator replied to Strawberrykool's topic in Travel

    To clarify: lost cause for getting a CA license/endorsement at this

  14. Any excelsior grads who travel

    nursetaminator replied to Strawberrykool's topic in Travel

    Check out this link: Excelsior College | State Board Requirements Looks like most of the states you can get a license via endorsement, just need X number of hours experience working as an RN. If you...

  15. Letter of Resignation

    nursetaminator replied to itsdebraanne's topic in Nursing Career

    Love it how they let you work your full shift on Monday then fired you at the end of the day. Doesn't sound like a place I'd want to

  16. Letter of Resignation

    nursetaminator replied to itsdebraanne's topic in Nursing Career

    Have to disagree. Though the "signs" or "feelings" were there, the OP had no notice she was being terminated until she was pulled into the office but the resignation had already been turned in to an...

  18. Nursing Nightmares

    nursetaminator replied to 0.adamantite's topic in General Nursing

    OMG!!! I am so relieved to know I'm not the only one who dreams they completely forgot about a patient(s) for an entire shift!!! I have literally woken up in a panic, walked down the hallway in my...

  19. Does nursing really suck that badly?

    nursetaminator replied to Irish_Mist's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    I fantasize about being the cleaning lady at work. She always looks so happy, mopping the floor, taking out the trash, wiping down the counters. Oh how little stress she has. The patients are...

    nursetaminator replied to sammiesmom's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Sweet!!! These are all great y'all. Keep the tips coming! I have a difficult time wording things so that they come out sounding at least half way professional. Always looking for more proper...

  21. Obtaining Letters of a Rec for a First Time Traveler

    nursetaminator replied to BellsRNBSN's topic in Travel

    Excellent advice! And thanks for giving suggestions on ways to obtain reference letters. It can be difficult in finding a way to approach a manager, charge nurse or colleague for these. Yea, I was...

  22. Obtaining Letters of a Rec for a First Time Traveler

    nursetaminator replied to BellsRNBSN's topic in Travel

    I asked 3 travelers I worked with recently about recommendation letters bc I'm interested in traveling. All 3 looked at me like I had lost my mind. They have never been asked for letters in all the...

  23. Advice

    nursetaminator replied to newbiern22's topic in Patient Medications

    If the DON left a nasty message on your phone then that just shows the overall attitude of the organization, which is not professional. And no one looks out for your health except you. Learn that...

  24. Texas

    nursetaminator replied to Travel_Lusting's topic in Travel

    Your point is? And from what I gather there are bad working conditions in every state. Bad board? Personally never had any issues & don't know of anyone that has. Low pay? Yea, lower than some...
