I am waiting for a call back from select specialty hospital to start working night shift for them... does anyone know thet start pay rate for them ? approximately ? thank you very much

Specializes in None yet but hopefully critical care..

Starting pay for the one in Savannah GA is 22 an hour. The night diff is 2.50. If you work on Sat or Sun, you will get an extra 10 dollars added to your base pay. I hope this helps.

The night shift diff is only 2.50?...

Yeah it's only 2.50. Is it more at other places?

Thank you for info, was offered a job at SSH but don't really know what shift to work any suggestion? But the shift diff is not that great to have to stay up all night, also I'm sure everybody wants to work weekend to get extra 10 dollars per hour.

Hey there. Honestly, the best shift to work is nights. Days are so crazy. I worked on days for 2 weeks during my orientation and knew nights would be better. U get more patients,5 to 6, as oppose to days, 4 to 5, but days r really crazy. I may be saying this bc I am a new grad but in my honest opinion nights is more laid back.

I think your right saw how busy it was on days,and on top of that paper charting. I feel the paper charting is going to be a little challenge for me...but in all is SSH a good employer/ work place?

If you don't mind long term acute care it's a great place to work. Especially if you have great coworkers to work around. It's a lot of hard work. Most days you will be busy but some days are not so bad. The benefits are great(it just takes 90 days for them to start which can suck if you have little ones). Hopefully you will like it. I like it on some days and some days I don't like it(but that's with any job). Let me know how your experience goes. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask me here or through pm.

I would also like to know if the unit is on a self schedule system?

At the particular select I work at, we do have a self scheduling.The person who does the schedule after everyone writes it in does a good job letting everyone get what they want or at least very close to it.I got exactly what I asked for last time.

I really thank you for all of the info...but I think this has been one of the hardest job decisions....I want the experience as a new grad....but I'm a dialysis nurse so first the pay cut, now the two year agreement has me stuck....my question is did you have to sign a agreement and was that hard for you?..I'm going to the th savannah ga location.
