SUPPLEMENTAL HEALTHCARE
HAS ANYONE HEARD OF SUPPLEMENTAL HEALTHCARE ARE THEY GOOD TO WORK WITH FOR CRITICAL CARE NURSE?
mental error
HEY SPARKY,
I FEEL SO DUMB, I REALIZED AFTER I SENT YOU THE E-MAIL I GOT MY RECRUITER COMPANIES MIXED UP. ALL THE INFORMATION I GAVE YOU IS RIGHT EXCEPT THE NAME, IT'S NOT SUPPLEMENTAL I WAS REFERRING TO BUT MEDICAL STAFFING SOLUTIONS. I GUESS THE REASON I GOT MIXED UP IS BECAUSE I WAS SPEAKING A LOT TO BOTH SUPPLEMENTAL AND MEDICAL SOLUTIONS. SUPPLEMENTAL DOES OFFER INSURANCE BUT I WAS NOT SOLD ON THEM, EVEN THOUGH A RECRUITER NAMED CHARLIE HAS BEEN VERY NICE TO ME. SO GOOD LUCK AND HOPE YOU MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE.
thanks for the info
dear houston girl, thanks so much for your info i have tried several times today to get a hold of medical staffing solutions im not sure how long this whole process takes to get you actually out to work but i hope its not too long thanks again bonnie i'll let you know who i go with joanne.
e-mail ana
Hey Joanne,
if you want to just deal with ana, e-mail her at the address i sent you and she will relply right away, she may give you her cell#. that way you will same a lot of time. and yes it seems to take a long time to get started. i thought one week and i would be off but not so. first you decide who to go with then they e-mail lots fo forms to fill out and then you decide where to go and put a travel packet and contract together and then you get all your papers in order and plan how to get there and when the contract starts, that is if the interview with the hospital goes well and they accept you. big pain ... but i guess after a coulple of assignments it gets much easier. you also have to get a license from that state and i hear some take no time and some a while. all good questions to ask recruiter you go with. good luck and e-mail me your progress.

supplemental health care travel division
i have been with supplemental health care for several years as both a traveler and per diem. it has been a good experince. if you are looking for travel contact the buffalo office (which is the number you see in most of the ads or go on line). ask for mike nicolia at ex. 126. he works hard for you and if you have any problems he will resolve them.
Supplemental Healthcare
I second Michael Nicolia with Supplemental Healthcare, am one of his travel nurses. Have found him easygoing,,,working closely with you, available, and constantly having to do stuff for me. Poor guy, I bark up his tree all the time. Professional, sounds like a salesman, but am referring everyone to him,,,,had others there before, he is the one. 8)

Hello Sparky, I've been traveling for 2 years, Supplemental was the first company I was with. I guess they are not the worst company out there, but I have not worked with them since. I was not able to get in touch with them after hours, and they did a poor job of staying in touch with me and returning my calls. Sunbelt staffing solutions has been the best company I've worked for. You might want to check them out. They have gone the extra mile to make me want to continure working for them. Drop my name if you talk to them, and ask for Dalla Johnson.
