Relocating to TX

Published

I am from WI and am currently looking into relocating to TX.... surrounding areas near Dallas or Houston.... any good hospitals to apply for? I have heard horror stories from travel nurses that work where I am now about many different places in TX. I know it is a huge state, so if anyone out there knows of any good places, please let me know. My background is med/surge.... I am a floater for my company though, so I float to all units except ICU and ED...

I am in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

As far as hospitals are concerned, there's Parkland, Texas Health Resources, Baylor Scott & White, the Methodist system, Tenet, and so forth. Of course, the HCA hospitals (Medical City Dallas, et al) are always an option.

I plan on being staff... I currently float within my heathcare system here in WI to several hospitals. It's like a resource pool position. I would like to keep the same position if possible....

Thank you. I was just concerned because one of the units I float to now have a lot of travelers and a few of them have complained greatly about a few hospitals in TX. I know TX is huge, so I was just wondering if there were any recommendations on places to work.
