cinntsp Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 That would be an awesome place to work for a couple of years. Just wait until after hurricane season to head down. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dondoro88 Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Out of curiosity, would a VA hospital in the USVI (or other areas) with an opening for a PA automatically qualify for loan repayment? Or is it up to the job seeker to file for this benefit? I wasn't sure if practicing in an underserved area automatically qualifies you for loan repayment.

jwidjaja Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Hi, does/did any of you have any experience in working in USVI? My husband and I are planning to move there at the end of this year and I am researching paperwork and requirements I need to get a license there and work there. I know it is an underserved area, but looks like they don't utilize that many PA's there. I know it's better to find a job there and talk to the people rather than finding them online, but I just want to know if any of you have insider tips or thoughts about working there. Thanks, josie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
