Hey all! I will be relocating to Tampa this year and have been trying to research the hospital systems, but you can only learn so much from the organization's websites. I primarily have MICU/SICU experience and currently work for a Trauma II organi...

Are you saying they offer $13,500 for a 2 year contract or was that supposed to be $1,350? I'd like to know anything you've learned about Florida Hospital as I am interviewing places right now.

I am relocating down there as well and have been interviewing. I work in critical care, so I don't know if they pay more for the unit or not. I have over 2 years experience and my base pay offers have been $26-27/hr. I have my CCRN which is $1.50 ...

I am moving to Tarpon Springs, FL and was curious what the hospitals in that area offer in regards to tuition reimbursement for full time and part time employees? Thanks for any info!

Anyone feel like sharing what the tuition reimbursement is at their hospital, please!? :)

Hey everyone! I'll be relocating to the Tampa/Clearwater/St. Pete area later this month and I really need help with figuring out the good and bad cities. We have a list of cities we are looking at, and trying to research, but I thought I would ask ...

Medic, Thank you so much for the information. We have family in Tarpon so that's one of the main cities we were looking at, but it has been difficult finding a home with everything we want within our budget. In comparison, if we go out to Brandon,...

Let me know how it goes and what you hear from anyone else. I am going to be relocating to Tampa and am an ICU nurse... I'd love to hear your opinions.

Nienna, we are looking for a little of both. While we do not have a family, we also don't want to live in party central, but we like to be within a decent drive to a fun area. Primary thing- we don't want to be more than a 15-20 min drive to the wa...

Thanks for your response! Unfortunately, I really don't have much of a choice in the general location. Sarasota is getting to be a tiny bit too far. Are there any other cities within the areas I mentioned that anyone would suggest that I have not ...

I was curious what certifications and education looks best on a resume? I am an ICU and ED nurse and plan to get my CCRN in a few months. I was wondering if there are other certifications or affiliations with organizations that would actually be wo...

I was wondering how I am supposed to write out my few, but important, abbreviations after my name? I started out obtaining my BSBA, then became an RN with an ADN (soon to be BSN). How am I supposed to specify these things? I am planning to get my C...

Ok thanks guys!

Hello, I am going to begin studying for my CCRN here within the next few months. I have the AACN book of questions and have several videos to study. Any suggestions on how to study, what to focus on, suggestions for someone taking it with about 1....

Thanks! The good and bad thing is that I work for a MICU/SICU that gets just about everything. I don't feel extremely confident in anything because it is so varied that I get the basics down and feel comfortable caring for the patients, but pathophy...

Yes, I have BLS, ACLS, TNCC, VARN, IABP, and am getting PALS in April.

Ohhh boy... Well, I won't be following you for the money! OH! :)

Hi all! I am hoping to move to the Tampa area next fall, and was wondering if I could get an idea of job availability and salary. At that time, I will have had about 2.5 years MICU/SICU experience and about 9 months experience as a critical care fl...

I am looking to relocate from Ohio to Tampa, FL next fall. I am trying to get a grasp on all my options, including regular full time employment as well as Travel nursing, which I have never done. I will have 2.5 MICU/SICU experience, and 9 months e...

Hey all! I am looking to travel to Tampa sometime this year, and I have never traveled as a RN before. Any Travel companies that have plenty of job offers in the Tampa area? Any companies I should avoid for any reason? Any suggestions on hospital...

Thank you! I read through those and got some good info. I feel like I am leaning towards Tampa General, Baycare, and Bayfront. I like ICU and would love to work for a community hospital like where I am, but also love working for a trauma II or hig...

Hey everyone! So I will be moving to the Tampa area sometimes between May-July this year, and will be visiting and hopefully setting up interviews for late April. I have been looking into the different hospital systems, but was wondering if anyone ...

Sweetgurly25, can you tell me why I should avoid morton plant? Thanks :)

Anyone have anything to say about Baycare or Largo?

Where did you move to!? Maybe I'll rethink my location :)
