Hi! I worked in AZ last year and had 6 patients on nights on a Tele floor. I don't think they have ratios in AZ but, correct me if I am wrong. When I worked Med/Surg in 07/08 I had up to 12 patients just because, someone called out and they had no replacement. That only happened once on an assignment. Things happened.
seasonal nursing and travel nursing are usually two different things. Usually seasonals work for the hospitals and not through a separate company contracted out to get the staff for them. Travelers work for a third party. I used to hire seasonals through the hospitals HR and travelers through agencies when I was living in an area that was very tourism seasonal......

Looking at a seasonal RN job at Yuma Regional Medical Center. It would be my first travel job, I have 1 year of experience which is what they require. The job is in Tower 2 Telemetry unit, I like nights.
Anybody work seasonally here? What is the patient load? How is the patient acuity? How were you treated as a seasonal worker by management & staff? Is the workload reasonable?
Thank you!
