AtownRN

KenzieGirl- have you already taken an assignment with HRN ( if so, do you like them) ? I have researched A LOT and they seem good. I am going to call tomorrow and see what jobs they have. Keep us posted with your situation.

I can't PM you because I haven't used this website enough... it says I need a certain amount of points. LOL I will try to figure it out soon because I'm interested to know which Traveling Agency you are working with and the logistics of your move down there. Did they pay for you to get down there? Have you made many friends yet? Or have you been working a lot? Not sure which hospital you are working at, but do you feel like now that you have experience you could work anywhere. Now that I started this job in Chicago, I have realized that it wouldn't be that hard to move around as a traveling RN. The only difference is the languages the patients speak, computer systems and where supplies are kept. Have you noticed that not speaking Creole has been a problem yet? I had a large Creole-only speaking population when I was working down there. I have so many questions for you and would like to contact an agency ASAP. Hope you've had time to walk up and down Las Olas and go on some boat tours : )

I worked for a year on a busy telemetry floor in South Florida. It was very tough sometimes... especially being a new grad. But I toughed it out for a year. I really wanted to go back home to the Midwest to be near family as they were having some problems. I work as a float RN at a hospital in Chicago and am waiting for a ICU position to open. I left my boyfriend back in Florida (that's where he wants to be) and I regret it every day. I want to go back ASAP. I think being a "Traveling RN" is the best way to get back down there. I turn 25 this summer... have a hard time making up my mind.... : / Is there any way I can message you about the tele position through a traveling company you have in Fort Lauderdale to see if I could possibly join you. I would like to go through a traveling company that has good reviews. May be you could point me in the right direction. It sounds like you are having a good experience. How much experience in Tele do you have? Thank You so much and good luck to all you girls who want to go travel as well!
