NURSES FOR NURSES
Nurses For Nurses

My name is Lisa Fowler. I have been a registered nurse since 1999. I wanted to tell you about a company I have started. It is called Nurses for nurses. First I would like to start by saying why I started this business. I was a travel nurse for many years. I was licensed in 18 states. I have to say some of the people I have met during my travels were some of the most caring and dedicated people in the world. One day during a contract in San Francisco I was roller bladeing with my daughter. I used all the safety equipment trying to be a strong role model, however I fell and broke my wrist. When this happened I was unable to complete my contract. I was financially devastated. I had to move back home without a dime to my name. The state literally laughed at me. They stated, You?re a nurse?live off your friends and family! I was horrified. I had no home?no money and a daughter that depended on me. We were homeless for several months . I could not get a job due to the fact I was considered a liability. After three months a skilled nursing facility gave me a chance. I worked there with a broken arm taking care of others. I now work as a staff nurse in Phoenix. This experience has haunted me for years. It was hard for me to understand. I was still a nurse. I still thought like a nurse. I still cared like a nurse. But I could not take on the physical demands the job entails. I thought about this hard time in my life, and I could not believe that I was useless without the use of my limb. I have met many nurses that are in this same position. Many of us are getting older, and the physical demands are getting greater. What options do we have? I decided to start a company. This company is a small one. The concept of the company is for nurses to take care of other nurses. We rent or buy real estate. We cater to travel nurses and give them things no one else offers. This is ran and operated by nurses or medical staff. We offer deluxe housing in safe communities, this is little or NO COST to you!! The houses are close to the hospitals and perks that are focused on the needs and wants of the travel nurse. There is nothing out here like this! We also offer investment opportunities for nurses to prepare for their futures. We hope to involve retired nurses to help with the company and daycare options for the traveling family. We have two homes at this time. One in Scottsdale AZ the other in Spartanburg SC. I have nurses that have offered their homes in other locations. We are looking at one in Tucson and one in Lake Tahoe at this time. Our first home is up and running in Scottsdale AZ?we would love for you to see it?call for more information?602-475-4185?all nurses/RT/PT/OT/NA?s?anyone in the medical field are welcome! Come and see what this is about. I am not a writer as you can tell from this letter. I am not a millionaire with money to burn. I am a nurse. Where I come from that still counts for something! I consider myself blessed to have met all the nurses and staff over the years. I don?t want a big company to benefit from this company. This is for the people that are in the trenches, the dedicated, and compassionate men and women of the medical field. This company is built for them. I feel this could change the lives of many. We are just getting started and would love for you to be a part of it. Thank you for your time.
