An Exciting Career

The challenges of moving your life and belongings to your new assignment can be stressful — but for many worth the adventure that awaits. Below Remede offers suggestions for preparing for the big move. Follow the tips to make your move a little less frustrating and a lot more fun.

Show Up Early

Consider arriving a few days early. This gives you time to settle into your new living situation and also to get to know the area. Find the hospital, the gym, the grocery store, and some of your favorite restaurants. This will help cut down on the stress of your first day.

Accommodations

Furnished apartments with housewares included are the best route to go for most of our contractors. There are many options to choose from. Remede will be happy to assist you in finding the best option for you. Nontaxable housing and per diem stipends are available if you qualify according to IRS guidelines. Not sure? Just ask.

Packing System

If you choose to take your own housewares, bathroom accessories and linens, organize your packing by the room in which they belong. This will simplify your unpacking process and make it easier to pick up and pack again for your next travel adventure.

Bring Something Personal

Especially for new travelers, being away from home can feel lonely… missing loved ones. Make your apartment feel more like home by bringing some of your favorite items: family photos, a favorite pillow or comforter, or artwork. Little touches can have a big impact.
