DFW areas

Hello,
I am looking to move to the DFW area, I woud like to try traveling. I will be taking my family with me so I would want to find my own housing. My main priorities are top pay, and generous housing at a good facility. I have almost 2 yrs. exp in med-surg. I have been offered 28 p/h from one company and that was including housing, I was very discouraged by this and the recruiter told me that was top pay. I can make that by working nights so I wanted to know did anyone have any top paying medsurg positions in the dfw area.
Feel free to email me. kimhaw_1999@yahoo.com.

Thanks

Re: DFW areas

When you're traveling, it's always a trade-off. The more benefits, perks you want, the less your base pay.

If you're traveling with your family, you'll want the best health insurance, housing and accommodations you can manage, that will take a healthy bite out of your base pay rate.

My advice would be to apply to several travel companies, compare pay and benefit packages, and decide as a family what is best for you.

Hope that is helpful.



Sincerely,
