thanks to everyone for the posts on this topic. i myself will be moving down there...probably once the current school year is over for my kids' sake, but may be sooner than planned. i've been trying to reach some of the area hospitals, posted my resumes and have had lots of interest from different health recruiters. the only thing i've heard back from was from mcleod in florence, they said they start at like $23/hr and an extra $3 shift diff. can i ask what hospital it is that pays the $8/hr diff for weekends? i am an ER nurse now and plan on relocating to the myrlte beach/ charleston area, and just looking at all the diff. hospitals. also, if i were to choose to work with an agency, do they provide health benefits through them or is the extra $ to provide your own. do you know of any agency/travel companies down that way to help me out. i really appreciate it. thank you!!

thank you for the information, i will check it out, do you by chance know anything about transferring my license?

what department did you work in there, that's one of the hospitals that i've been looking. one of the nurse recruiters was in touch with me today infact and the pay is right around what i'm making now, so that was a plus!! just trying to look at cities around, we'll be down there in a couple days, but only for a couple days, not enough time to get everywhere. thank you for your reply!! is marion a bigger or smaller city? is it one of them that are being built up with newer developments?

hi there!! i was hoping to gain some information on the hospitals and living areas in general in the myrtle beach--charleston areas. i am an rn in an emergency room in ohio currently, i was hoping to move to the area in another couple years, but with change in family situations we will me moving sooner than i thought. looking for nice neighborhoods that aren't going to break a budget of a nurses wage, good school systems, and a nice place to work. right now i'm making almost $24/hr and was hoping to find something close to that if not more, if you have any input on any of this i would greatly appreciate it. thank you!!
