I'm new to the forum. I have been a LPN for 7yrs. I have Med/Surg, Burn Unit, and Wound care experience. The hospital that I work in is small. What are the best hospitals that I can work in, in California. (a small hospital setting)

Thanks,

I would like to work in the San Diego area. Really any area that's not bad or just a small hospital setting. Does anyone know the pay rate for LPN travelers on Med/Surg unit.

Hospitals in San Diego

I lived in San Diego for four years while going to university and loved it. The hospitals associated with UCSD are nice, but I don't think they are necessarily small. One of the travelers that I work with now did an assignment at UCSD and enjoyed it, so it couldn't hurt to look into working there. I'm not sure about pay rates for travel nurses. Here's the URL for careers at UCSD, even if you aren't looking for a full-time position, it may help to get a better feel for the hospital http://www.ucsdhcjobs.org/
I hope this helps.
