Augusta Ga Nursing Job (and surrounding areas)?

Published

I need help, I'll be moving to west Augusta (grovetown, Evans) in April. What hospitals are the best in the area? Also, any clinics anyone can recommend? My boyfriend will be work on at the base, I'd be interested in working on base but would have no idea how to start the process of applying as a civilian.

Any advice on the area in general is greatly appreciated as we've never been to GA before ame now we're buying a house and moving there!

Thanks!

Hi! I'm in Grovetown. My husband is a nurse at University, and my sister is a nurse at GRUHealth. Those are both great hospitals. Doctors hospital is closer to Grovetown, but I don't think the pay is quite as much as the hospitals downtown. Not 100% sure, though.

Are they both satisfied with nurse to patient ratio, pay, the hours etc? I'm looking for a per diem position hopefully. That's what I'm doing now and I really enjoy it. I know I will be taking a bit of a pay cut, I'm at $38 and hour without differential. What's the average hourly rate there, do you know? Any information is so helpful!! Thank you!!!

Specializes in EMS, ED, Trauma, CEN, CPEN, TCRN.

For jobs at Dwight D. Eisenhower Army Medical Center (DDEAMC), which is the hospital at Ft. Gordon, you should check usajobs.gov for openings. You'll also find jobs for the Veterans Affairs hospital in Augusta. One nice thing about working in a federal facility is that you can work under your current state's RN license without having to worry about the Georgia license right away.

Hey there - So I have an interview for University Hospital. Are you able to ask your husband a few questions for me? I just want to know nurse to staff ratio's, if he ever gets mandatory overtime, and if the pay is competitive. She already told me what it is hourly which is much lower than where I'm at, so just want to make sure I'm considering all my options! Thanks! Dani
