Considering a contract at the hospital mentioned. I feel like I may be being lowballed on pay for the area too. Anyone have thoughts on whats normal? Anyone have experience with the ER in particular?

THANKS!

I just turned down an offer from that hospital for the same reason. The pay was too low considering the cost of living for the area. I would've been paying my entire housing stipend and then some. I've heard good things about the hospital itself though.

So sounds like its the hospital that has a low bill rate and not me necessarily being hosed by my company? Haha. I really love the location but I def feel like the pay should be way more. UGH

Hi there, I'm heading to St John's to work in July. It feels like a great place even though I too feel like the pay is low... Did you end up going?

Hey! Yes I did go. I was in the ER. It was an excellent hospital and the ER staff were so nice and welcoming. They were very fair with pt load as well. What dept will you be in? I found out from the other travelers there that this particular hospital does in fact just have a crap bill rate.. not typical of California. None of us got paid big bucks. But I made plenty to live comfortably. its a nice area, so much to do as well!
