  1. HCA Hosptials in Denver?

    I worked for HCA super float pool, I chose to go between 3 different hospitals, but was only ever at Presbyterian St. Luke's. Overall, the onboarding was easy. I was paid a base of $42 hr, with $5/hr night, $2/hr weekend differentials. I had no issue...
  2. Salary talk

    Quick update, Banner Health offered 33 hr base, with 4 dollar diff for noc, and 2 dollar diff for weekends. This is a float pool position (travel between 3 hospitals), full time, benefited as well. Just throwing that out there. Thanks for the updated...
  3. Salary talk

    I'd be curious as to an update. I was at UCHealth for 3 yrs, left last May '17, was making 28.10 hr base at that time. Went to MS,planned to stay, but d/t a family emergency had to come back to CO a few weeks ago. I'm currently job hunting... I talke...
  4. Questions about RN pay in CO

    I do per diem work (my 2nd job) for Banner Staffing Registry. I work in northern Colorado, either at the hospital in Loveland or Greeley. It's $34 hr., no guarantee of shifts (4 shifts per month minimum to stay with them), but you do get call back pa...
  5. CO salary, has it changed at all over the years?

    Not sure, but I had a friend leave Cheyenne(commute from foco) to go work for MCR a few months ago and took a $3.00 hr cut in pay. She had about 14/16 months of nursing experience. I guess the difference would be made up in gas and car expenses. I'm ...
  6. CCConline for prereqs

    I bought the microscope when I bought the labpaq. I think it was an extra $150 or so, in addition to the lab paq.
  7. CCConline for prereqs

    I took classes through CCConline as well. I took Micro, Patho, Chemistry and a couple of other gen courses. I didn't have a problem with the online science classes. I felt the labs were appropriate and learned quite a bit. It does require more time a...
  8. Why am i not getting a call back? it is my resume??

    You need short, concise, and to the point resume. (Use bullet points) It needs to be a "flash" of who you are and what skills you can provide all on one page. Rewrite with "key" words, like effective, demonstrated, implement, proficient, etc. I woul...
  9. How to not give up on your dream RN career

    Congrats on the job!! I'm still waiting for my turn! Someday I hope!
  10. Colorado New Grads- Do you have jobs?

    I really like CRMC. I don't mind the drive unless it snows, but the hospital will put you up if the highway closes and you have to work the next day. I always keep an overnight bag and extra scrubs in my car. It would be worth a shot to apply to CRMC...
  11. CO salary, has it changed at all over the years?

    I think it's still about the same. 2 yrs ago I started PRN at Good Samaritan Society, $25 hr. I know the full/part timers had a base of $22 hr over there. Not sure what the hospitals up in N. Co are paying, but I know a friend who went from Cheyenne ...

  14. How to not give up on your dream RN career

    I can commiserate with you. I'm in med/surg too, trying to get into mom/baby. I had an interview but was pass over for someone who transferred from another hospital. I'm just plugging away. Hoping someday it will work out, but it's frustrating and di...
  15. Moving to Colorado

    You can try going north. I live in Fort Collins but work at the hospital in Cheyenne, Wy. There are quite a few of us (at least on my unit) that commute from FoCo to WY. WY pays better and if you look at housing in Wellington (just north of FoCo) yo...
