I will deff keep you in mind in anything like that ever comes up. lol. Yeah, I don't see any reason why they can't get you a 36 hour assignment. That sounds a little fishy to me. I do know the more you work the more they get paid. Grr. Makes me mad when I hear stuff like this.

If you hate the long hours then next time take an assignment with 3 shifts a week. 4 shifts a week can get tough after a while. I have been there. I recently made a move to the managment side of nursing. I am ready to have a first shift/ monday- friday job. I wish I could go back in time sometimes and do travel nursing for a good 5- 10 years before having kids! Happy with where I am at now. If you ever have trouble getting a good assignment let me know. My boss is very good about helping our nurses. That is why I took this position. :) Good luck! Keep me posted on how you are doing. Maybe your next trip can be to Cali or Hawaii!!!

I HATED my first assignment as a nurse. I mean H-A-T-E-D! The patients were rude and very demanding. The techs were lazy and I ended up doing their job most of the time BUT I wouldn't take it back for anything! Stick it out. Every one I have taken since then has been a breeze. I feel like I can handle anything after that. Are you a traveller? If so, what company do you use? Thanks.

PM me and I will give you info on travel nursing. :)

it really depends on the assignment and who you go with. you may be able to find an agency that will pay that much but they are most likely not going to pay travel expenses, living, and transportation expenses too. moderator note: email address removed as per terms of service

To get paid more than you would working locally AND have all your housing, travel, and transportation expenses paid! Can't beat that!

At Talemed the RN's are required to have at least one year of nursing experience. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.
