Hi everyone,
New to travel and to this site. Need some help. I have been a RN 13 years. Moved to LA area last year from Texas. Have been working for a very large, busy L&D dept. We deliver 650 babies a month. I have 3 kids that are 7,4,and 3. My job is very physically demanding. Needless to say I am a tired girl.

Just got an interesting offer from a local travel company to do local travel assignemts.With what they offer, I could be bringing home about $3500 more monthly with the housing stipen that they pay. Am I crazy? Why haven't I done this before and why aren't more nurses doing this? Can you tell me the advantages of doing travel vs. permenant position? Are there really that many disadvantages to travel work?

Open to all suggestions and advice. Looking to start first assignment mid August. Look forward to hearing from you.
