Hi everyone,
I'm at the point of having to apply for a full time perm job as I can't get a travel job. Traveled for 4 years.
Problem is I don't know where I want to live FULL TIME, that is what I loved about traveling.
I hate my home state of NY for many reasons and won't work here. Hospitals are very short staffed. I hate winter too, so for 3 winters I worked in Florida. Had 2 decent jobs, but not sure if that's the place for me year round. Don't know anyone there. Have friends in Massachussets and looking at Cape Cod Hospital and Falmouth.for starters,but then I get stuck again becasue of the WINTER...I need to get working.
Any suggestions of how to decide?
Thanks

If you can swing subacute rehab patients, try Cardiac Staffing---they have a bunch of travel contracts with Select Hospitals and they pay pretty well...they got me an assignment in South Florida this past January...:banana:
