Hi Simon,
I left this message for Jacob as well. Perhaps you can give me some insight about my interest.

I am thinking about starting a new website for nurses where we can meet, chat, and share.
I have an idea for a name. Any advice related to finding out if the name is already in use? Also do you have any suggestions on how I should go about building this website and how to drive nurses to it?
And lastly, any information related to cost to build and maintain?

Thank you so much for your time,
Renee

Hi Simon,
Do you think the CBI certification would be a valuable tool for me?

Thanks,
Renee

Heating up all right. Just got back from a 2 week vacation where there was 87% humidity and 92+ heat. It actually seems much cooler here. Take the dry heat over humidity any day.

So......I'm either in air conditioning, in the pool, or on the lake with the boat in my spare time. You do get use to it and adjust your life style accordingly. Drink LOTS of water!!!!

Hope all is well with you and you are enjoying your summer.

Hi Simon,

Yes, I am looking for a new gig. You asked what
would be my perfect job would be? The answer is
an opportunity to grow and be challenged
professionally and learn new technologies along
with building new and exciting relationships.

Let me know if you hear of anything...the economy
is slow and beggars can't be choosy.

Thanks,
Gloria

Thanks Simon. I just found this site the other day and am still learning to navigate around it. However, it already appears to be a great site to remain connected with peers. Thanks.

Simon,

This is a great site! There's a lot of people I know already on the site. It's a great way to stay professionally connected, yet locally focused.

Actually, I am trying to find out if any Healthcare recruiters know of any RN's mainly Critical Care who are going to be or might want to move to the Seattle,WA area. The specific area is Bellevue, WA. It is a beautiful suburb of Seattle with great schools, housing and a $10,000 retention bonus for F/T Critical Care Nurses with relo assistance as well. As you know this area is known for Microsoft, Amazon.com, Starbucks and Nordstroms headquarters to name a few. I'm sure you also know the weather is quite different from San Diego, but some people want to relocate or will be relocating for other reasons.
I asked if this is a good venue because this is a job for RN"s. If this is not the place, please let me know.

Thanks sooooooooo much! I'm inviting my friend Kirsti Rizzs to join. She's a great recruiter in Washington State @ Overlake Hospital in Bellevue.

Thanks again,
Renee
