CHLA RN Residency September 2019

Nurses New Nurse

Published

Hi everyone! I just wanted to start this thread for everyone applying to CHLA's RN Residency Program starting in September 2019 so that we can keep each other posted on application status, interviews and whatnot. I applied to 4 East Hem-onc, what about you all?

Hi all! Excited for this process! Does anyone know the rough hourly range CHLA starts at, out of curiosity? I know UCLA starts around 45, so wasn’t sure if CHLA was also in the same range. Thanks and good luck!

Wow, that's quite a difference from UCLA, and I know Torrance Memorial pays around UCLA as well. Why is there such a difference, you think? I would think they'd want to stay competitive pay wise with other area hospitals. I understand not paying exactly that same amount, but I would think they'd want to stay in the same ballpark, at least. Do they raise you after the residency ends?

I believe the give quarterly raises and it eventually maxes out depending on your RN level, but yeah pay is significantly lower since it is a nonprofit hospital.

That makes sense, thanks for the information! A friend of a friend works there now and says it’s $38, but there could always be miscommunication! ?

Good luck everyone!

You could try contacting the HR manager in charge of the new grad applications, however I'm at CHLA now and some applications have already been screened to managers.

Hi! Are you doing your Residency now? How is it?

From what I've learned, CHLA base pay is first 8 hrs and then 1.5 x for last 4 hours. If you start at $30 then you average $35 for 12 hrs because of 1.5 x pay. Classroom time during residency is just base pay. Then after 6 months when residency is over you get a decent raise, and another decent raise 6 months later. So essentially 1 year in you're averaging close to what other hospitals pay.

I received the e-mail shortly after applying. Just checked and the position appears as "SUBMITTED" under my applications. I think I read in previous CHLA threads that it did disappear for some people though so I wouldn't worry too much.

Hi! Did you hear anything from them?
