  1. First assignment almost done!

    Maybe! I did go over there & help quite a bit. I was more of a glorified gopher....filled ice packs, chin lifts, transporting, etc. But a little exposure. Lots going on that I would love to learn!...
  2. Endo Travel

    Hi guys, I've been a member on this site for about 10 yrs. (?). Evidently I lurked too long without posting & I got booted off. I had to reset my password & set a new account. LOL. My kids are...

  4. Endo Travel

    I'm only a week in but I'm learning a ton! I'm working pre/post/Endo. The pre & post is totally new to me (it's all outpatient procedures, not just endo). I've been strictly outpatient endo for...
  5. App for timesheets

    So I got an email from my agency saying I need to download this app to my phone, record all my hours in it and have the charge RN sign off (w/her finger) right on the screen. It sounds pretty cool but...
  6. App for timesheets

    It turned out the app had a glitch in it. Sorry.... Probably was a silly question to ask. I was more looking to see if anyone else turned in their hours this way (vs. paper). Thanks for responding...
  7. Endo Travel

    Good for you!!! I hope your whole assignment is a success. Happy travels....I'm right behind you. Mine starts in 2 wks.
  8. Endo Travel

    My contract states "float within skill level". Honestly, I don't really care if I get floated. I love variety. It may be tricky, though. I haven't worked med/surg. x17 yrs! They'd have to be super...
  9. Endo Travel

    I think that's totally NL! I'm leaving an amazing job that I've been at x11 yrs. But I'm just SO ready for a change. I feel even if I fail epically I at least tried something new. LOL Keep me posted...
  10. Endo Travel

    My first is March 21st! Going to Boulder, CO. What about
  11. Bisacodyl and C-Diff??

    Hi Annie, I relayed your question to one of the gastroenterologists that I work with. He said there is absolutely no rationale for giving Bisocodyl for c-diff related diarrhea. He has heard of giving...
  12. Per Diem Q

    Oh good, Thanks! I'll read those.
  13. Per Diem Q

    So I have a question....I was talking to a recruiter yesterday about a position & was quoted $34/day M&I & $69/day housing. I used the GSA app as advised & the rates on there were $64...
  14. New Orleans

    Jackson has positions at Oschner (main campus) right now. You could also check w/Trinity. They contract w/both Oschner & Tulane.
  15. Per Diem Q

    That's really good advice....thank you. And I do read every post on here, but I'll go back & reread some of the recent ones. I may have skimmed something important! Amy
  16. Per Diem Q

    Thanks for the input. I do still struggle a little bit w/understanding the compensation part of things. I'm getting better though! Travelers talk about negotiating their pay & I get a little...
  17. Per Diem Q

    Got it. Thanks!
  18. Travel nursing now or wait for pension?

    I start in 11 wks. so I'll let you know! I think it'll be great but the way I look at it, I'll look back and have regrets if I don't try. Don't worry, I'll keep you posted. This is a great site for...
  19. Travel nursing now or wait for pension?

    If I think too long & hard about the salary/hours/profit sharing & paid vacation I'm leaving behind at my permanent job to travel my teeth start chattering. It's just that....I'm bored out of...
  20. take stipend, cheap hotel?

    Got it!
  21. take stipend, cheap hotel?

    Ned....if I have a solid tax home (everything you said: mortgage, taxes, no renters, job @ home) do I need to save receipts for anything while I travel? If I'm taking the stipend? Referring to...

  23. Staffing Med. USA

    So I've gotten a couple calls/emails from this agency (Staffing Medical USA). I responded to one of the emails & asked for a link to their website. I told them I'm still in the process of...
  24. Staffing Med. USA

    Thanks!!!
  25. Need advice about travel nursing!!

    Those are good questions. The housing confuses me a bit, too. I understand getting a stipend & finding your own housing (that seems like what most of the travelers do). But "providing housing"...
