    Traveling and postal mail if no permanent residence

    NurseRies replied to FNP-2-BE's topic in Travel

    I use my parents address for mailing and billing purposes. They can open important things. You need to have a permanent billing address for mail. That's why I need mail. Everytime I use my card it...

    Skype Interview with Cruise Line

    NurseRies replied to EMSnut45's topic in Travel

    I have read about dialysis nurse cruise jobs, which do things a little differently. All you have to do is prove you are competent, have 3 years experience (current), certification, and register. There...

    LPN Traveling Nursing Jobs

    NurseRies replied to blessnme's topic in Travel

    Yeah I've heard that in Indiana as well the techs can access catheters. In South Carolina, I never even saw any LPNS at the hospital. In Texas, they seem to use them a lot more. Do you have any...

    Really need to talk to a traveling dialysis RN please

    NurseRies replied to nursetaminator's topic in Travel

    Good luck! I understand the job can be very demanding. Crazy hours and crazy amounts if running around. Can be very physically challenging. I hope you find something that suits you

    Advice on where to go next?

    NurseRies replied to 1Dreamer's topic in Travel

    I recommend alloying yourself minimum 8 weeks for processing. I didn't think getting my CA license was any harder then any other state. It took me 3+ months. I heard nothing from them after after...

    Changing my name during travel nursing after wedding.

    NurseRies replied to NurseRies's topic in Travel

    I still maintain a SC address. But I have most of my mail forwarded to my parents house in Ohio because that is usually where I go if I have a week off. I talked to both agency and BON before my first...

    First Assignment!!!!

    NurseRies replied to Dee_RN's topic in Travel

    I have a compact state license from South Carolina, which is compatible with Texas. So I didn't have to do anything. It costs just as much to get a temp as a permanent though, so I always go for the...

    NurseRies replied to barbwire's topic in Dialysis, Renal, Urology

    I worked in the outpatient setting for 2 years. It was my first job out of nursing school. I never felt like crying in my car, but I talked to other new employees that did. They were not all new...

    Hey Dee,I am just finishing my first assignment as well, and... It's in San Antonio! I was scared too, not so much about the job, but just leaving my comfort zone. Just lay out what you want. I don't...

    Time to extend...and renegotiate??

    NurseRies replied to MS. ICANDOIT's topic in Travel

    NurseRies replied to NurseRies's topic in Travel
