    Re: Discuss Travel Nursing Careers Spotlight older nurses

    Interesting topic since I sit as a charter member. At 53 years old I just couldn't take the politics anymore. Started traveling in 2001 and have been all over the country. My wife and I do open heart recovery and live in our RV. This has been enjoyable but you always start new jobs and they treat you as dumb or just starting your nursing career. Makes you angry! But after a while they learn that your experence becomes vital and begin using your skills more, only to end your contract shortly after. You start off to another location, begin all over again. Have made many friends I wouldn't trade for any thing. Old nurses enjoying life and traveling the country with some one eleses money.
