NURSES LOUNGE PROFESSIONAL NETWORK HIRES
REGIONAL PUBLISHER AND EXPANDS INTO THE SOUTHEAST

Dallas, TX – May 11, 2011 – Nurses Lounge, an online professional network for nurses, announced that Orenda Ramsey has been retained as the publisher for Alabama and the panhandle of Florida.

As a regional publisher for Nurses Lounge (www.nurseslounge.com), Orenda will work with area nursing schools, state and local nurse associations, hospitals and other organizations to develop their utilization of the Nurses Lounge online network. Interactive groups (lounges), which Nurses Lounge creates for each individual organization, are used by the colleges, hospitals and others to disseminate news and information directly to their respective members and the approximately 80,000 registered nurses in the region.

“We are very enthusiastic to have someone of Orenda’s publishing and sales experience join our team,” says Tim Armes, CEO and Founder of the Nurses Lounge.

Ms. Ramsey was most recently publisher of the South Alabama/Gulf Coast edition of MD News, a B2B content publishing magazine for physicians. She has more than 10 years experience in business to business sales, including over 4 years of healthcare sales.

With Ms. Ramsey as publisher, development of the Nurses Lounge network with universities, hospitals and nurses is expected to be rapid with a large increase of activity and influx of area nursing professionals to its membership.

Ms. Ramsey will be based in Daphne, Al. She is among the first group of independent publishers to be hired by Nurses Lounge and will be helping Nurses Lounge expand throughout the United States from its origins in the Texas market where Nurses Lounge was launched 2 years ago.

History of Nurses Lounge

Nurses Lounge (www.nurseslounge.com), a wholly owned subsidiary of MedCareers Group, Inc., grew out of a nine-year-old nursing publication and web portal. Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, Nurses Lounge began operations in Atlanta, Georgia, as a Nurse web portal in the 1990's. Timothy Armes, founder of Jobs.com, acquired the portal site in 2002 and moved the operation to Dallas where Armes also launched a successful direct mail companion magazine reporting on the local nursing profession. The website has been enhanced to become a more social-oriented network for nurses. It was re-launched in mid-2009 as a professional network for nurses and designed as a more efficient way for nurse organizations to communicate not only to their members but to the nursing profession at large.
