  1. Travel nursing information

    miam replied to nikkidrn's topic in Travel

    i dont think anyone was trashing you. However a question such as " best agency" or general " how is it" questions simply cannot be answered by any of us that travel. There is no way there is a best...

  2. Extremely Overweight Nurses

    miam replied to WonderousIvy's topic in Nursing Career

    inches, well hopefully my buddies will help me out. But for my weight, that is something i can control, and i will never let my job of being a nurse or not being a nurse have any decision on how much...

  3. Extremely Overweight Nurses

    miam replied to WonderousIvy's topic in Nursing Career

    Wow people, its amazing how one little comment can get so many people's panties in a bunch. Lighten up. i have been a travel nurse for the last 6 years, so feel like i have seen alot of nurses in alot...

  4. LPN's and travel nursing?

    miam replied to katiescow's topic in Travel

    very limited, except if you could find corrections or ltcs, but would be difficult. Do not think any acute facilities use lpn as travel. You are best to maybe stay at home, get your RN, then pursue...

  5. housing stipends san francisco

    miam replied to globetrotterRN's topic in Travel

    hopefully you know that was suppose to be 2000. if only that extra "0" was the case.

  6. housing stipends san francisco

    miam replied to globetrotterRN's topic in Travel

    usually right around 20000 or a little more. you will have to find sonething alot less then 4000 a month or you will find yourself pulling from your savings just to be there for 13

  7. Licensure

    miam replied to trvlngstethoscp's topic in Travel

    They have been known for not backing their nurses with hospital issues, problems with contract issues and such. Good luck, and hopefuly you will have no problems but i would get on the travel nurse...

  8. Licensure

    miam replied to trvlngstethoscp's topic in Travel

    hopefuly you will have good luck with your assignments, but make sure you keep an eye on aureus and do your homework. They tend to have a very poor reputation as far as agencies

  9. Working schedule?

    miam replied to Hbohn's topic in Travel

    if you need specific dates off, make sure they are written into your contract. Usually, this is pretty minimum, they are hiring you to fill their needs not the other way around, so you generally have...

  10. Anyone Work for Tenet Health or Parallon Workforce?

    miam replied to jnh911's topic in Travel

    not sure why you are specifically asking about parallon, but i would deff cast my net wider then that. They are a vendor manager, and as such will always cut you a smaller slice of the pie. If you are...

  11. 4-hour Floating and Assessments

    miam replied to AWanderingMinstral's topic in Travel

    i know others have said it, but i have no idea why the amount of malpractice insurance you carry has to do with the price of beans. Does that give you the right to be an unsafe nurse, and rely on the...

  12. 4-hour Floating and Assessments

    miam replied to AWanderingMinstral's topic in Travel

    O.k. i guess then you would have to base it on your own comfort level and not on how other nurses think about it, since when push comes to shove you would have to legally defend your position in a...

  13. 4-hour Floating and Assessments

    miam replied to AWanderingMinstral's topic in Travel

    just curious, why were you "feeling sorry" for NedRn for just asking you a question in response to a question you posted? It sounded as if you were very unsure about what the appropriate nursing care...

  14. 4-hour Floating and Assessments

    miam replied to AWanderingMinstral's topic in Travel

    i have only been a RN for 5 years, and traveled for 2 but dont you ALWAYS have to do an assessment on a pt when you take over care, wether it be for 2 hrs or 12 hrs ??? If you dont how can you legally...

  15. thoughts on traveling

    miam replied to mikealty's topic in Travel

    from what i am seeing alot of hospitals are requiring BSNs , and requiring their nurses already on staff to obtain them within a certain time frame. At least with magnet status hospitals. i would...

  16. thoughts on traveling

    miam replied to mikealty's topic in Travel

    i have only been traveling for a couple years, so someone with more experience may have a different response, but i would wait awhile before trying to get specific information. It sounds as though...

  17. questions for travelers

    miam replied to aachavez's topic in Travel

    i have a feeling that as many travel nurses you talked to you would get that many different answers. Everyone loves or likes different locations but i find that it is seldom for the same reasons. I...

  18. Travel nursing married with family at home

    miam replied to jbest555's topic in Travel

    And i am lucky enough to have a husband who knows i would be misserable if i didnt have my "rabbit hole" to escape to now and then. Its not about forgetting that you are married, it is just about...

  19. Travel nursing married with family at home

    miam replied to jbest555's topic in Travel

    i cannot comment on children, as i do not have any, and think it would/be difficult to travel either with or without them. But i am married and the whole travel thing is the best thi g i could do for...

  20. traveling without spouses

    miam posted a topic in Travel

    hey, just trying to get a feel for how many travel nurses travel while leaving their spouses behind. i have done this a couple times but have always been close enough to pop in for a three day...

    miam replied to brookiern's topic in Travel

    oops, just saw where it was a sales pitch

  22. Best Travel Companies

    miam replied to brookiern's topic in Travel

    primetime, so your saying that you are really happy with this one smaller company but you didnt mention which one that is. Do you want to post their name so other peope can look into

  23. temp cali license

    miam replied to miam's topic in Travel

    well, i think it will come down to following up the best i can, and also provide them with the most information that i can to show, like you did, why i deserve to have a license. After all, hopefuly...

  24. temp cali license

    miam replied to miam's topic in Travel

    yes. i have the same info you sent me. from what i see it is stating that they request that an individual send supporting documentation, and that because of high demand it will take aditional time. it...

  25. temp cali license

    miam replied to miam's topic in Travel

    hey nurseries, i just wanted to check and make sure that even though it did take you an extended time and extra work to get your 2 out of state licenses, you did finally recieve them right? So in the...
