Re: pay in south dakota

I can give you somewhat of an idea of how to tell how the payscales compare. Pay scales are based on medicare and medicaide dollars. Those dollars are paid based on the number of people in your state. Therefore, if there are more people in the state you are in, chances are good the pay is better. As for a specific range, it seems it is all over. I have seen pay scales for RNs in SD go from $15/hr to $25/hr. Hope that helps.
