NEW GRAD PAY HOUSTON

hey guys. I'm a new grad nurse in Houston working in the medical center. What is your hospital's base rate for new grads? I got an offer from St. Luke's with $28 an hour.

When did you hear back from St. Lukes? I turned in the survey that they wanted us to complete but haven't heard back since.

$28/hr is good pay for a new grad. Very.

I’m starting at Women’s hospital at $28.50 with $4 differential for nights.

Harris County is 28$. Once I hit my one year after being a new grad this year I jumped to 35$.

I would not accept that offer. My last job I made $28 as an LVN. There’s plenty of jobs in Houston offering way more than that for new grads.

Well that’s what the residencies are paying these days from what I gathered  unfortunately, between 28 and 29. After the first year there’s like a big raise. If you want to make more then home health might be an option.

O OK I get that!

Do you all know if the differentials need to be stated in the residency offer? Im worried if they are not, I might never receive them.
