Some advice needed

Hope someone has some suggestions for me. I'm planning to move to Florida from Maryland soon. My husband recently retired but I'll still need to work fulltime for the health benefits. I've been a nurse for almost 30 years and I've only worked in 2 different hospitals. How do I go about researching employment options long distance? Should I send a resume to each hospital and Ambulatory Surgery center in the city I'm moving to? Is an email to the nurse recruiter the wrong thing to do. I'd just like to know what positions are available. I'm not even sure how the salary's compare to what I make here. I sure hope someone can help.

Thanks

The website for the Florida Hospital Association or the Florida Department of Health should have a listing of the hospitals in the city where you will be moving. Most acute hospitals have a telephone job line you can call 24 hours a day with recorded information about job positions that are available. You could also phone the nurse recruiters in the hospitals. Not all nurse recruiters are nurses, some are just HR people. That will get you information on if they have openings and how to apply. Nursing journals will also have advertisements by hospitals. Nursing Spectrum prints local editions of their nursing newspapers with local employment ads for nurses in them. And, one last resource would be to see what the Florida BON might be able to offer. A lot of the hospitals who are putting out information on job openings get lists of nurses from the BON. You want to get on those mailing lists. I would also explore some of the links on this website as well.
