Hey BIrd:
I'm not really sure what your asking.

If you are a licensed RN or LPN then you know what to do. If not, are
you asking for a friend or contemplating a new career?

The RNs I know who do the "traveling nurse" thing really enjoy it.
There are several agencies/companies that hire traveling nurses. Each
offer a diffrent benefit package. Some have excellent health and lower
wage and others just the opposite. For example, an RN with 5+ years
experience your looking in the ball park of $40/hr with all travel,
health, lodging paid. Deployments can range from 3 weeks to 4 months
depending on agency.

Check any of the nurse trade magazines. Nurses get a couple titles free
if license is current. Ask one. Or go to a large library or college
with a nursing program and check the library. The agencies advertise in
the mags. For example, RN Magazine.

Do a goggle search. Each agency has a website// ( or was that /// to
end a message.)

That brusque ticking off from jailbird - before I'd tried to
answer the question - has made me go overboard.

So I like your idea of a goggle search. Regain self respect by
inspecting the antifouling, ponder the ethics of killing off
wildlife with poisons,

To make this feasible, you would really need to OWN the boat. Is this what
you mean?

WOW! Ears are ringing!

If you're looking for information on nursing employment, try
www.allnurses.com. They have a travel nurse forum that may be helpful.

Or is your question about living aboard?

Hey, I wasn't the one shouting. I did try to answer what may have been
the question, having worked as a travel nurse.
