Supposedly 8 out of 10 people suffer from hemorrhoids. Does that mean that the other 2 people enjoy them???

First and foremost...Thank you all for your warm welcome!

MagRedC5-- My username is in regards to my husband. The USMC blessed me in bringing him to me. We are currently having some problems due to readjustment from back to back deployments to Iraq...however I am hopeful that everything will work out just fine. That being the reason I am looking into traveling. That pretty well sums it up

I do hope everything works out for ya'll. BTW, I'm a Marine Veteran [active duty 1980-1988], as well as presently active duty Army Nurse. On a side note; I rifle qual'd expert yesterday after more than 19 years absence from firing an M16. I guess the Marine Corps taught me well.

Re: Hey Yall!!

Hi Lori,

Welcome to the forums, you can learn a lot about traveling and the ins/outs on the travel section of this site.

Have articles, companies listed also on http://www.4travelnursing.com

For the experienced nurse, travel nursing can open up a world of opportunities. Especially in a Military family, could work out quite well for you.

To get a feel for it, you can try taking some assignments with a local nursing agency. See if you're comfortable going from place to place with little or no orientation.

Travel nursing isn't for everyone, better to find out early if it will work out for you.

Best wishes,

Andrew Lopez, RN
