My current job title is clinical receptionist. I’m used to “new year, new job,” since I haven’t found one I’m happy with. I’m in my 30s, and $16/hr is the only thing I can find in SC/GA states. I loved my first year as a CMA in a float pool. I love venipuncture, injections, vitals, etc. I’ve tried PCTing, which would have been okay for me, if the manager wasn’t Jekyll and Hyde. I can’t afford to relocate, and I have a friend who offered a $35/hr front desk job @ Kaiser in CA. I feel Stuck.

Also look at traveling jobs using those credentials. It’ll help you scope an area you’d like to move to as well as help you make some more money in the process. Also that rate of pay in CA is basically $16 there due to cost of living.

Thank you both so much! I hate that the cost of living is considered low here. I have never wanted to be a nurse, and that’s the next step up from CMA 🙄. I have always wanted a travel position. I wish I had more reviews on them.

Yes, Kaiser pays a lot and you can afford the cost of living in CA, IF you move to a less expensive area such as the Central Valley. If you don’t want to relocate, look at remote jobs.
