Hello all, I am a NICU travel nurse. I need help until I get paid. I travel with my puppers Leia.
In July, I broke my foot while on a contract in California. I worked on it for several weeks until the pain was too much and I had to go to urgent care. I broke 3 bones in my foot and was placed in a boot. I worked for 2 more weeks until the contract was canceled because I was in the boot and the hospital considered it a liability. That was 8/17/25. My contract was supposed to end 9/13/25. Then I would be starting my new contract 9/29/25. Two weeks off is usual between contracts. I had 2 weeks to move out of my house in Las Vegas to my roommate's house in Scottsdale on 9/25/25. If I had been working for the last 4 weeks, it would not have been an issue. But my move cost me approximately $2500, leaving me nothing to start my new contract. My first paycheck will not come until 10/10/25. The hotels out here are insanely expensive and I have used the last of my funds to stay my first week in orientation. Basically, Leia and I will be sleeping in my truck if I cannot pay for a hotel until I get paid. When my paycheck comes, I will be able to secure a furnished place for the next 4 months of this contract. Any amount would be appreciated. Thank you all so much.
