Hello! I'm currently an RN on a med/surg unit in the San Jose area, with almost 3 years experience. I have no idea what other hospitals are paying hourly right now in the Bay Area. I have heard that my hospital is paying significantly less. If you work at a Bay Area hospital (SF, East Bay, North Bay, and South Bay), or know the hourly rates for any hospitals, could you leave them down below? # years experience, union/non-union, and shift differentials would be helpful, too. Thank you so much! ?
(Particular interested in East Bay hospitals, such as Kaiser, Sutter, and John Muir, but any info appreciated)

I know someone who works at Stanford hosp, her starting rate was $70/hr and my friend who works at Kaiser around $65/hr.

I work for kaiser and our contract is the same across northern California. Your base with your experience would be 68.5949/hr. Swing shift is 7.18$ an hour and night is 11.45 an hour.
You move up quick though with experience.

UCSF's salary is posted online. With your experience, you will be at $69.71 per hour. Night shift differential is 16%.

I work at Stanford and will hit my four year mark in about 3.5 months. I get paid $80.14 per hour day shift. Night shift differential is 18%. I will be getting a $3 raise + an extra 1% by next May. Our contract was just negotiated with out union in May. We do 12 hour shifts so no PM shift differential. Only the 18% for nights. Hope I helped!
