I am not sure if this is the right place to post this thread. But I need help on tips to negotiate or talk about compensation in a LTC facility. I am a new grad and I have a meeting with a Director of Nursing next week. I was wondering what is the average salary for a new grad RN in this kind of facility.
Thanks.
Just got hired in Seattle, WA for $24.50/hr + $1.50/hr per diem (RN, BSN). They pay LPNs a bit less. The ratio is only 17-20 pts per nurse, 8 pts per CNA, so I am loving it and feeling like I am getting the hang of it after only 4 days orientation :) (I still have about 2 1/2 weeks of orientation left). Nurses are treated pretty well here but the load is much less than even a few blocks from here where I hear it is 30 pts per nurse (all medicare so extra charting), 10 pts per CNA, and the pay is a bit higher.
