Does CHOC pay $23/hr?!?!

[babynurse06]

Hello all- I am currently in a great NICU and make a decent salary but work nights and just do not know how much longer I can manage it. I found that CHOC has some day positions open but i heard that they pay $23/hr?! Is this true??? That would be a 10 dollar decrease from what i make now!! Any info would be appreciated, thanks!

The best thing to do is CALL the hospital recruiter and ask.

Children's Hospital of Orange County

Our Human Resources office accepts applications between 7:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. For more information about our nursing positions, call our 24 hour job line at [phone] or contact the Nurse Recruiter. Or apply online.

They could also tell you if the nurses belong to a union and the starting pay for new grads. Let us know what you find out.

Good luck.

The answer is NO. They pay new grads $29.97/hr for days and if you want to work nights, it is a $6 diff. That is why they have more daytime positions available. If you are a nurse with experience, obviously the pay will be greater. Good luck to you.
