Good manual, just wish there was more focusing on marketing one's self as an independent nurse contractor vs nursing agency. I am incorporated already, but do not want to take on employees. Need more info on how to get in the door and who to approach. Also, if one has already been an employee of a hospital is it possible to go back and be a contract nurse?

Is there any blog site or chat room already established for nurse contractors? I am just getting started and I would love to chat with anyone who is already established or anyone just getting started. It would be helpful to bounce ideas and questions off of someone who is "walking in the same shoes" Thanks LS
