wow you are underpaid. seriously.
I work for Texas Health Resources. We have hospitals all over DFW. Check out the website. Texas Health Resources is a great system to work for. I graduated May 2007. A new graduate nurse will start off making 21.50 and will get at least a $1 raise every 6 months for 5 years, to bring them up to the same pay an RN would get with that much experience. This is to keep the new RN from wanting to take a job offer from another hospital. Sometimes you get more than $1 raise. I started off making $19.50. About a year after I graduated the pay for a graduate nurse went up to $21.50. I at the time was about to recieve a raise that would take me to that same pay. To make up for the fact starting pay went up the gave me an additional $2 so that brought me to $23.50 with just one year of experience. I am sure they have very competitive pay for nurses with prior experience- Check them out!!! If you do decide to go with them put me down as a referral. It iwll help me out- I will get a little bonus :). Hope this information helps
If she's a new RN with no experience, there's virtually no hospitals in the DFW area that will pay that kind of money to a new grad unless she works night shift or decides to work at a LTAC hospital such as Kindred, Lifecare, or Healthsouth.I would like my wife to start out around $28 to $32 per hour in D/FW area.
The regular acute care hospitals in the DFW area are paying new grad RNs between $21.50 and $23 per hour. Some specialty hospitals, such as Cooks Childrens, pay $25.
