I was recently calling around for per diem shift requirements in Northern California. I was told it varied by department/unit at several hospitals.
Name that Hospital's monthly per diem shift requirements.
Include your dept & unit if that matters at your hospital.
If you know Holiday or weekend requirement list it.
Salary info is helpful too.
California Pacific Medical Center
Union says 4 shifts every four week schedule. Two must be weekends.
No salary or holiday info.
Santa Clara Valley Medical Center
8 shifts per month. 2 must weekends. Alternative would be 4 weekend shifts a month.
67.18 -84.95 hr. No holiday.
Kaiser Oakland
no per diem positions. Only on call positions available for all units.
**Who the heck wants to sign up, just so staffing can call you anytime that day to come in.
Santa Clara valley & Kaiser Oakland tie for the worst I ever heard.
nobody else has information? I have a few more but jeez...
