1. Any Winnie Palmer Nurses??

   Lizthomas, RN replied to rahuntrn's topic in Florida

   $26.55 isn't bad that's only about $4 less an hour than what I am making now and with FL being tax free that's not so bad. Do you have your BSN? I live in MN so I hear you about the frigid cold! It gets so old. Please let me know how it goes and what...

2. Georgia Nursing Pay: looking at Savannah, GA

   Lizthomas, RN replied to Lizthomas, RN's topic in Georgia

   That's so funny you mention that! My husbands cousin and her husband just built a house specifically in Richmond Hill to be part of that school district. They initially had their daughter in private but have since had another and couldn't do 2 kids i...

3. Atlanta, Georgia Nurses

   Lizthomas, RN replied to KnottyNurse17's topic in Georgia

   Thanks for the reply! My Mother in Law is from Savannah and although they are in NY state right now (they moved for better schools for their sons) they are retiring in Milledgeville, GA so of course they want us to move to Georgia. We are looking int...

4. Atlanta, Georgia Nurses

   Lizthomas, RN replied to KnottyNurse17's topic in Georgia

   Hi guys! So really random question but do you like Atlanta? Especially for those of you who have relocated? I live in MN and my hubby and I have looked into FL and GA as possibilities. I was only in Atlanta once and it was overwhelming as I come from...

5. Georgia Nursing Pay: looking at Savannah, GA

   Lizthomas, RN replied to Lizthomas, RN's topic in Georgia

   That's not too bad! I would do that considering how insanely affordable housing is down there. My biggest issue is the schools. I am due end of May with our 1st and I know GA schools aren't wonderful. I wish we could afford private!

6. Salary for experienced nurse

   Lizthomas, RN replied to catica1124's topic in Florida

   My husband's union is on a federal level not state so in all 50 states. He should be fine no matter where we go it's just me that will take the big cut. His friend that just transferred is making the same in Mississippi as he is in MN because their u...

7. Salary for experienced nurse

   Lizthomas, RN replied to catica1124's topic in Florida

   Do you like Florida? I am a NICU nurse in MN and looking for a change but NICU nurses here make $31 an hour starting out so it's frustrating seeing how much Florida nurses make. But we are ready for a change and willing to take a pay cut if it was so...

8. Any Winnie Palmer Nurses??

   Lizthomas, RN replied to rahuntrn's topic in Florida

   Anyone know what Winnie Palmer pays? I am a NICU nurse in MN with my BSN from a private college and 2 years of NICU experience. We have looked at moving but I know Florida pays crap compared to MN (we start out at $31/hr). We are sick of MN and looki...

9. Georgia Nursing Pay: looking at Savannah, GA

   Lizthomas, RN replied to Lizthomas, RN's topic in Georgia

   Oh with all of that I would hope they pay you extra. If you have those degrees and certifications they really should! The hospital I work for only pays their BSN nurses an extra $0.50 an hour versus their two year nurses from what I understand. Altho...

10. Georgia Nursing Pay: looking at Savannah, GA

    Lizthomas, RN replied to Lizthomas, RN's topic in Georgia

    I have my 4 year BSN from a private college so that may help but I definitely wouldn't take a job anywhere for less than $25 an hour with benefits and good shift differential no matter where we went. We have kind of refocused on Florida because the s...

11. Georgia Nursing Pay: looking at Savannah, GA

    Lizthomas, RN replied to Lizthomas, RN's topic in Georgia

    Yeah I looked at indeed.com but I don't think that it's very accurate because I looked at Florida RN nursing jobs and it said that Florida nurses made more yearly than MN nurses yet when I contacted a recruiter from a children's hospital in the city ...

    Lizthomas, RN posted a topic in Georgia

    Hello everyone, My husband and I are looking to move out of MN. My husbands job is mostly outdoors and these harsh winters are really getting old. I have my 4 year BSN from a private college and have been working for 7 months as an RN in a Neonatal ...
