Hello fellow RNs!My family and I are considering a move to the Midland, Michigan area. I have been an ADN RN for 17 years, and have worked the past 10 in Labor and Delivery. I have also completed one travel assignment as an LDRP RN. Will hospitals in Michigan hire experienced ADNs? Also, as I am trying to determine what I will be able to afford in regards to rent/mortgage, is anyone willing to share with me what RN wages might look like for me?Thank you so much!

If so, an RN with your experience would get roughly $30/hr base. I can't remember if they are union or not, but if they are that figure will likely be a bit higher.
