Acute Dialysis Pay

Specialties Urology

Published

Hi, I'm currently a chronic outpatient dialysis nurse and is currently interested in getting a job in acute dialysis. From the nature of the job I read on call is usually mandatory. My question is if you work over 40 hours for that week and have on call for one day that week, do you get the overtime differential AND the on call differential?

So if you make $35/hr for 52 hours worked that week, do I get 12 hours overtime differential (1.5x) and 12 hours on call differential (what is the multiplier 1.5x also?)? Can someone show me how the math works out? Thank you in advance!

Following.  I'm curious about this too.

It truly depends on how your offer is set up. Make sure the recruiter knows that you want that. For some candidates, experienced or sold themselves well or particular work group (company group of coverage).

we get 30 for call during the week. if we come in we get our pay. no extra money other than the 30 dollars. on the weekend its 50. but no shift diff or weekend diff.

Every company and perhaps regions with the same company may have acute pay set up differently. For example, I work in the pandhandle in Florida.  I receive my base pay plus 3 dollars an hour acute differential when doing direct patient care. There also are evening and night differentials.  I'm usually on call once weekly but only receive 2 dollars an hour call pay.  If I get called in, I get paid my standard Acute wage. Of course, anything over 40 hours is time and a half.
