  | Nursing shortage drums up demand for happy nomads Nursing shortage drums up demand for happy nomads:"Amy Morrison has turned the USA's nursing shortage to her advantage. The 32-year-old nurse hung up her Ohio scrubs six years ago and hit the road. She's one of an estimated 20,000 U.S. "traveling nurses" who move from hospital to hospital on assignments typically lasting 13 weeks. Travel nurses help hospitals fill workforce gaps and, in some cases, keep hospital units open. Morrison's traveled for six years, working in such places as Hawaii, Alaska, New York and California. She's made 25% more than if she'd stayed in Ohio, she estimates, and the former farm girl has seen the country on someone else's dime. "It's a great life," she says. http://news.yahoo.com/s/usatoday/200...&printer=1 Andrew Lopez, RN http://www.nursinga2z.com |
