has anyone ever worked for Crdentia or Xpressnursing, and if so what was your experience with the company, salary, housing and everything else you can think of to tell me. Thanks in advance.

Never worked for Crdentia. But I sure don't like what they did to Randy and Terri..

I worked for Expressnursing when Jenny Hellman was there. If this is the same company. They have changed their name to Trustaff and they never get back to you..

This is too ALL about Crdentia. About a week or two ago both Terry Hill and Randy Stilley were "let go". Seems Crdentia was re-organizing.. They let them go as they were remote recruiters. They didn't work in the corporate office.
This is my limited understanding of the issue not having first hand info..

Terri Hill had her own agency and merged with Crdentia a few years ago. I believe. So I wonder how much she really lost.

Recruiters seem to be just like travelers IMHO.. They can be looking for a new position at the drop of a hat too.

Not many companies out there keep recruiters long term..There are some of course.. It's too bad that everything revolves around money and scr**ing people out of it if they can..

Just had a recruiter tell me it's too bad nurses aren't satisfied with $31 per hour.. I told him to back up.
My son has a high school degree. 9 years in the USMC.. Yes, he has done well there. Has top security clearance and he will leave next year for a 6 figure income.. Now I know he has mine and many others lives in his hands but so do I.

We won't even mention atlethes, news broadcasters, actors etc.........Millions a year...

JMHO

I worked with Express on my first assingment.. Good pay. 35 Residence INN suite.. I never did any housework for 17 weeks.. $4000 bonus.. But that was when Jenny Hellman was with them.. Trustaff has called me several times..With come ons.. But they never really give me anything concrete.. This "I'll get back to you" doesn't wash with me..


Intel I know nothing about...Sorry

I only do hemodialysis now so I am with a company that specializes in dialysis..

It's kind of a tedious process but if you scroll down the main index here there is a thread that reviews companies. If you have some names in mind you could check them. If not you could just look at those that have been reviewed by nurses..

It does take some research. Companies and travel nurses have become more sauvy and therefore things have changed in the travel nursing industry..Some good some not so good.

Hope you find a good company for you. Oh, it also depends on your speciality.

I, personally, don't like a company that wants all my info in order to "find" me a position. I want them to have posititons. I think IMHO that you get a position quicker..

I am new to travel nursing and don't know a thing..yet. What are good companies and what are pitfalls to watch for? Has anybody worked for Access Nurses? I would appreciate any feedback I could get.

Cin3 scroll down the Main Index here to the folder on Travel Nurse Companies.. Someone may have posted on a company you are interested in.

Remember to take all of it with a grain of salt..What one doesn't like another might accept.

Express nursing, now call themselves, Trustaff. Have not worked for them, but they sound good. However, I suggest exercising caution in what you tell any of the companies. Just to cover the bases.Not all is what they seem to be.
