Kentucky travel RT living out of a Winnebago on contract. Night shift, fishing when I can, and Go Cats 💙 Glad you're here
Started a Travel Healthcare HQ page on Facebook too. Licensing tips, free CEU picks, and a poll going on the best city folks have worked a contract in. Come hang out: facebook.com/travelhealthcar…
Halloween at a campground beats any neighborhood. Lit-up campers, candy at every site, and kids in costumes riding bikes loop after loop. Plenty of parks sit close to hospitals too: travelhealthcarehq.com/rv-pa…
Comparing travel offers? Look past the weekly total and ask what the base rate is. A low base with a big stipend can hurt on overtime, holidays and cancellations. I laid out how base pay, stipends and tax home fit together here: travelhealthcarehq.com/pay?x…
Chili weather is officially here. Big pot on the stove, cornbread in the oven, and enough left over to get through the rest of the week.
Heated water hose season is coming for camper folks. A frozen line in the middle of a work week is no fun. If you're thinking about living in an RV on your next contract, I listed parks near hospitals by state: travelhealthcarehq.com/rv-pa…
Clocks fall back Sunday. Extra hour of sleep sounds nice until it's dark before supper and the evening fishing is done for the year.
Happy RC Week to all my fellow respiratory therapists. Good week to check when your license renews, too. I put every state's RT and nurse CE requirements in one spot: travelhealthcarehq.com/ceus
Kentucky football is No. 9 in the AP poll and just went unbeaten in October for the first time since 1977. Basketball usually gets all the attention this time of year. Not this fall. Go Cats.
Sunday plan is simple. Big breakfast, a long nap, and maybe a couple hours on the water this afternoon if the wind lays down.
Before you sign a travel contract, get the guaranteed hours, cancellation policy and float rules in writing. A recruiter's promise on the phone doesn't count. I keep a checklist of what to ask here: travelhealthcarehq.com/check…
Cats handled Texas Tech last night and football gets Vandy at Kroger Field tonight. Good weekend to be from Kentucky.
Campground's filling up with leaf peepers this weekend. Fire pits going at every site and somebody's dog stops by to say hi. Not a bad way to live on contract. If you've thought about it, I listed RV parks near hospitals by state: travelhealthcarehq.com/rv-pa…
Housing tip for travelers: never send a deposit on a place you haven't seen. Get a live video walkthrough first and every term in writing. I put together where to look and the scam red flags here: travelhealthcarehq.com/housi…
What's the worst scrub color you've ever had to wear on a contract? I'm in eggplant right now and it's by far the worst 🍆 If you get to pick your own, here's my list of better ones: travelhealthcarehq.com/scrub…
If you're thinking about traveling, start the license stuff early. Some states take weeks. Put every state's license board in one spot: travelhealthcarehq.com/licen…
Went through the tackle box and found three lures I don't even remember buying. Every fisherman has that one drawer.
