Just saying hello.


but now that Im here

I was wondering since the economy has gone bad if travelers and agency nurses are seeing it. I know the area around where I am living that the positions in hospitals are drying up quickly. Anyone else seeing it?

I have not seen any decrease in travel assignments- let's face it, regardless of what the economy is doing, if a hospital needs nurses, they need to get them from somewhere...

Glad to have you join us!

There is a need for nurses, but not enough of us to go around. I do know 1 hospital out my way just closed, 1 was going to close, but was bought out, and another is building a bigger facility. I know the area always has help wanted ads.
