Hi Everyone!
I am a new nurse going on many interviews for nursing homes. Problem is, I have NO IDEA what the going rate is for new nurses in long term care/nursing homes. I live in a SUBURB of Philadelphia. CAn anyone help me on what nurses make at nursing homes in this area? ( I would apprecaite ANY nurses in LTC and what they make hourly.)
I am just afraid if they ask what I am asking for I Will either go too low or insult them by asking way too much. Please help! First interview is tommorrow!! THANK YOU!

So, what are the hourly rates for new RNs in nursing homes? Are they pretty close to the rates offered by the hospitals? Thanks.
