Let's talk $$ for hospice. (Idea lifted from Agency nursing)

Chibi-chan, BSN, RN · Feb 2, 2014

I work in Western Missouri. This is also my first RN job out of Nursing School, I had very little experience as an RN (I did a few flu shot clinics.) I graduated in May, 2013.

I make $24/hr here as an RNCM at my hospice company and I'm usually working 50-55 hrs a week. Overtime is time-and-a-half. As a comparison, I was offered positions as a charge nurse at a large LTCF for 19/hr and at hospitals as a M/S RN for 17/hr.

We RNCMs are required to work 1 weekend/month as a backup on-call RN. We make 2.00/hr, but if we get called out, we make our regular hourly pay starting when we leave.

All of us (RNCMs, On-Call, Admissions) make 0.45/mile.

On-Call nurses are salaried at 50K/year, and Admissions RNs are around 60-65K/year salaried.

For my area, this is extremely good money.

RN after hours weekend baylor nurse in Colorado. $38/hour, $0.50/mile and $600 every 2 weeks bonus for baylor commitment. I don't have on call unless I want it and I am off 5 days a week. I made $96K last year.

WERE blesed, or ARE blessed? Your place seems to paying you 1990s-era pay. Good for you. I'm glad too see that at least one place still appreciates nurses. But now everybody and their duck will set their sights on Colorado!
