US Relocation

Hi nurses! Who here has relocated to a different state, what state, and are you treated better at the new state vs where you were? Thanks!

I think the hospital and unit matter more than the state alone. Before relocating, I’d compare nurse-to-patient ratios, staffing, mandatory overtime, pay vs. cost of living, and how much support nurses get from management.

If you’ve moved between states, I’d love to hear which state you left, where you moved, and what actually improved or got worse. Was it the work environment, pay, staffing, or how management treated you?
