SuccessInProgress

Heading to a town about 30 minutes outside of Philadelphia and thank you...... have a long road ahead. I will check out NEPA.

Hello fellow nurses! I am currently in transition from Houston, Texas to PA with family due to losing everything in the Harvey floods and living on donations at the moment. I am still employed with a wonderful hospital in Houston however will have to leave sooner than later.....eventually. I would like to get some input on signing up for travel nursing within the area that I will be relocating to. At least until I get an idea of what hospitals are best to work permanently for or decide which field I really want to be in. I have been in Med/Surg for the past two years. I don't hate it but I KNOW it's not what I want to keep doing, especially with no ratio laws in place and lower than deserved pay for the work involved. Anyhow, just inquiring about reputable travel companies and how it all works. Thanks in advance for your input my friends!

Got a ticket on my way to work at 5:30am on a Sunday morning!! Said he didn't care where I was going. My ticket also said it was heavy traffic and pouring rain. LIES. State trooper didn't care about anything but himself! Jerk.

I didn't see Texas on there either. As a brand new graduate nurse in Texas, right outside of Houston, with only an ADN, I started at 31/hour. Being in an area with a generally low cost of living, the starting salary was great! The benefits are awesome too!

Thank you so much, do you happen to know anything about The salary in this line of work as a registered nurse?

Thanks. Do they offer training or what is it that you know about them? Thank you!!

Hi everyone! I am a new graduate nurse from Houston Texas, working in Med/Surg for about 4 months now. I DEFINITELY know that it's not where I want to be nor am meant to be! I am just trying to gain my "basic" experience and hang in there for as long as I can before moving on (because I dread going to work in this department). I have always had an interest in the cosmetic area of nursing and I am just trying to get some insight as to where to begin? I have no experience in the field but I want to gain some and I have to start somewhere! This is something I want to start asap because when I get it, I'm out! Any tips on where to begin or who to call would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks y'all! 😉
