Hi all...

[kbtravel]

Hello, I am new today to site. Wondering if there are many travel RN's on this site?:nurse-sun:

Welcome to the site, kb! Yeah, there are quite a few travel nurses, but some (!) of them seem to mainly lurk. Hope you don't turn into one of them!

Since you are new here, can you tell us a little about yourself? How long have you been a nurse? Do you have a specialty?

WELCOME!

Amanda, is an excellent travel nurse resource. Also, visit the Travel Nurse Forum section.

Hi, thanks...I don't think I will be lurking around much due to working too much to be online. Again, thanks for the info!

I know you may be working alot, but drop by when you are able. We'd still love to hear from you. It doesn't have to be daily or anything.

Hi, To answer your original question about my background... started young in RN school ( my mom was an OB nurse ) and graduated college 1985. Grew up in N.W. Michigan and worked at trauma center there until 2006. I have been an OR nurse since 1990. I have been traveling for almost four years and so far, I still enjoy it. Hope to see you all on the site too and ask anything about surgery if you want and I will try to be of assistance for those type of questions.

kbtravel, do you ever "scrub-in" or mostly Circulate?

[kbtravel]

Hi, I sometimes have the opportunity to scrub but not often unfortunately because I love to scrub. Most hospitals use surgical techs for scrub role but a few hospitals have all RN's for scrub and circulate roles.
