1. Relocating

   Great_time replied to mss112's topic in Arizona

   Just curious... why one would leave CA or TX and move to AZ? It is extremely hot, flat and dusty... The landscape is really depressing.

   Great_time replied to JenRN30's topic in Arizona

   I would go ahead and apply before coming to AZ. Some places offer relocation and sign on bonuses.

3. Move over, Florida...

   Great_time replied to Crux1024's topic in Florida

   I moved from FL to CA and do not miss it a bit. I know, the economy is bad here too but pay and benefits are so much better! I pay less for rent here in CA and my electric bill is 1/3 of what it was in FL. Go figure... Work culture and ethics are bet...

4. RN jobs outside of bedside nursing

   Great_time replied to OliveRN's topic in Florida

   Most case management positions in hospitals require 3 to 5 years experience. Same with insurance companies. Why don't you try home health? You can make your own schedule working PRN. After some time you can work at the same agency as a case manager. ...

5. PRN vs full time

   Great_time replied to Great_time's topic in Florida

   Thanks a lot! I will know more about the position next week. Meanwhile, I am shopping for health insurance... In general, it is going to cost me a little more than employer's insurance and it will cover less. Besides, employer's insurance premiums ar...

   Great_time replied to Great_time's topic in Florida

   Hm... No PRN folks here?

7. Tampa, Fl RN salaries??

   Great_time replied to Student_Michelle's topic in Florida

   To Michelle: My advice would be - get a job in Tampa as a new grad, work a year or two and then go where your heart belongs. Also read CA and NY sections of this forum - it is extremely difficult to find a job as a new grad either in CA or NY. It is ...

8. PRN vs full time

   Great_time posted a topic in Florida

   Hello! I might be relocating from one part of FL to another. I am considering a PRN position instead of full time. I would still work 40 hr/week but no PTO, medical or dental. I am thinking of getting my own insurance - it would cost me almost as muc...

   Great_time replied to jonesey22's topic in Florida

   Who "they?" Are your referring to any particular hospital?

10. How is the job market in NYC?

    Great_time replied to Great_time's topic in New York

    Thank you, Megan. I am surprised noone else wanted to discuss this situation. Maybe I should have been more specific... like "How do I get a job in NY living in another state?" or "Out of state candidate... what are my chances?" Anyway, I am willing ...

11. How is the job market in NYC?

    Great_time posted a topic in New York

    Hello:wink2: I am thinking of relocating to NYC from another state. I read almost the whole NY section and the perspectives look kinda gloomy. We all know it is tough out there for new grads... and what about us, recent new grads? I have BSN and 1 ye...

12. How to handle an abusive surgeon?

    Great_time replied to aquarius1's topic in Relations

    I am a new nurse - straight out of school and work in OR. What I noticed about this hospital is surgeons get away with pretty much everything (I talked to some nurses, and they sadly confirm this). I've never heard of reporting abusive ones to manage...
