   Thanks Ned. I appreciate the info. Again, I hope things get better by July or maybe an extension of my current assignment, but it's good to know.

   Where do you stand on opening things up during the Pandemic?

   cartwrk replied to Convoy2022_TrumpSupporter's topic in COVID

   I support the reopening. I'm not here to argue with anyone. This is a graph that shows death rate of countries with lockdown (yellow) vs countries without (green). I realize there are many variables. This graph was put together by a statistician...

   Unemployment for travel nurses?

   cartwrk posted a topic in Travel

   I'm currently in an assignment until end of July, and so thankful for that. But looking at my agency's job postings has me worried. I used to see over a hundred L&D jobs, now there are 10 nationwide. Any travelers dealing with this? Travelers...

   No Hydroxychloroquine Benefit in Randomized COVID-19 Trial

   cartwrk replied to NRSKarenRN's topic in COVID

   I realized that Dr. Vladimir Zelenko’s 3 drug regime and his outcomes are anecdotal, but I don't they should be completely dismissed. He is a family practice Dr and orthodox Jew. In this newest video he states that he has treated 1450 patients in ...

   World Health Organization

   cartwrk replied to Emergent's topic in COVID

   I'm only going to address the media here. I don't know that the Dems control the media so much as the Global elites control the media, and the Dems are on the same wavelength, agenda. Personally, I don't trust NBC, ABC, CBS, PBS, CNN, MSNBC or a...

   Should nurses be getting involved in the Reopen America protests nationwide?

   cartwrk replied to A Hit With The Ladies's topic in COVID

   Sweden is a country of 10 million people. Some suggest the Swedish experiment is paying off. And the ICU in Stockholm is not overwhelmed. The hospital has beds to spare. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/the-swedish-experiment-looks-like-it-s-p...

   Should nurses be getting involved in the Reopen America protests nationwide?

   cartwrk replied to A Hit With The Ladies's topic in COVID

   I support the protests... First Amendment right My county has had 13 positive cases. We have been shut down for 5 weeks in CO, there is no reason rural areas and areas that aren't hot spots should not open up. Not everyone qualifies for unemployment...

   Travel Pay

   cartwrk replied to Redvet371's topic in Travel

   Nomad and Trusted seem to pay best, very transparent. No recruiters. ( I like that part). All online. I've done 3 assignments with Nomad. I do l&d. My 1st assignment, $56/hr in NM, 2nd $50/hr in FL, 3rd $48/hr in KY. I have offer from CA, $...

   Travel Company Suggestions

   cartwrk replied to Michelle313's topic in COVID

   I've done 3 assignments with Nomad. No recruiters, best pay in industry that I can see ( and Trusted Healthcare works the same/high pay). My next assignment may be with Trusted.

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/world-health-organization-un-agency-spends-big-on-travel-report/ I think Trump is right...they should be investigated. WHO “routinely has spent about $200 million a year on travel expenses, more than what it doles out ...

    "The Calm Before The Storm" Laying Nurses Off To Prepare For A Pandemic Surge

    cartwrk replied to NurseB.MN's topic in COVID

    I agree completely. Our small rural hospital has been slow for last month. It's not sustainable. This is a media induced panic because they hate our president. It's also agenda-driven. I honestly don't trust the CDC, WHO, Fauci, Bill Gates or...

    Crisis travel assignments for Covid-19?

    cartwrk replied to JDougRN's topic in COVID

    Trusted healthcare and Nomad have jobs from $90 to $120 an HR last time I looked. Both agencies don't use recruiters, but if you get an account with them, you can see exactly what jobs they have and the exact pay. I've done 3 assignments with Noma...

    Crises Pay

    cartwrk replied to sooner74's topic in COVID

    True, travel nurse agencies are paying up to $120 an HR for covid19 contracts, but housing will probably be a huge issue. I'm an L&D travel nurse, (I've seen rates go up, but not that high) and I travel in an RV. I'm concerned, because I've h...

    Afraid of dying

    cartwrk replied to haveyourbowelsmoved's topic in COVID

    I'm in a very small town in the USA. We have zero cases in our county. I work L&D, so not a lot of difference in my unit. I appreciate the Dutch nurse's personal story and perspective. To US nurses, stop watching mainstream news outlets. Th...
