Hi! This is my first post on allnurses.com so forgive me if I make any mistakes! I decided to put it here over the travel nursing thread because i'm interested in both travel nursing and full-time employment opportunities! I am just curious about travel nursing and nursing in general in the Seattle area... I've been an L&D RN in a large teaching hospital (the only level 1 trauma center and highest level NICU in the state, high risk maternal-fetal medicine) in Oklahoma for the last two years. My husband just graduated from pharmacy school and is taking his boards this summer. It is our dream to pursue our postgraduate lives and careers in Seattle, but I think I'd have to travel in order to help pay for our expenses. Does anyone have any insight on the best travel agencies for this area, what I can expect as far as hourly wages go (for travelers and FTE), how much reimbursement i'd get for housing through travel agencies, and the environments of the labor and delivery units in different hospitals? Any advice/encouragement/input is greatly appreciated!
