Looking for opportunities to work in Hospice in Alaska (house, rent)

[MikkiW]

I am an RN currently employed in Hospice nursing in Arkansas. My children are grown and my husband passed away last year. It has been a dream of mine to travel and Alaska has always been a place of interest to me. My husband and I commercial fished and kept a large houseboat on the White River in the heart of the White River Refuge so I am no stranger to the outdoors. I have training in many areas but love hospice nursing. Are there positions in rural areas for someone who desires to work in this field? I have been researching job opportunities over the internet but most positions listed are for large cities and hospitals. I would like to try a travel nursing position that would allow me to work in different areas of the state. Is this possible?

I believe if you scroll through some of the older threads I remember seeing a few on nursing etc. Should be a few links or places to check on.

At one point when I lived in AK, there were hospice nurses working in Juneau - where you can dock and live on your boat. I see this is an older post, and perhaps you are already there, but it not - Hospice does offer positions at least in Juneau. Very beautiful there.
