Just writing to let everyone know our exciting news... We just accepted our next contract in the Denver area. Yea, we are so happy and excited to go to Colorado. I am amazed at how quickly I was able to interview and get this assignment, it was a completely different experience than last time over christmas. The travel nursing industry is really slow still and I was not sure what we would find, if we would be able to find a good contract, but we have and here we go! We will go straight from here to there without any time off due to the hospitals need and orientation dates. So come April 20th we'll be coloradians for a while at leasts.
I will be sad to leave the position I am in now because I really like the group of people I am working with this time and am enjoying the aspects of opening a new unit and being able to take some ownership in the coordination of the unit. I work as one of the primary night charge nurses, which basically means I serve as the resource person on the unit for that shift and have a few more responsibilities. I am also serving as a preceptor, helping to build the full time staff that are coming in. So, it has been a great experience and my current manager is very sad to see me go. It always feels good to know you have done a good job and are appreciated. If I could take Inova hospital with me I think I would, it seems to be a great facility with a lot of opportunity. But it is time to move on and boy, Matt can't wait to move on! He feels much more couped up in this city than he did in Milwaukee and of course we both love the mountains, so this is a great move for both of us.
This new position will be challenging as I will be in the float pool and will work on many different units throughout the hospital. This facility has a very large Trauma program though, so that will be an area that I can develop in more.
So for all our friends and family in Colorado, we are coming soon and can't wait!!! For me, having visited Colorado at least yearly since I was about 11, it feels like my second home. It will be nice being in a familiar place again with friends and family close by.
