Published

Does you unit offer any incentives or bonus pay to train/precept new nurses to your unit?

Specializes in Leadership, Psych, HomeCare, Amb. Care.

Teaching Institution.

It's an expectation, and the clinical ladder (with increased responsibilities), increases salary in 10% increments.

The RN does get a lighter assignment while the preceptor and orientee are working together

I get an extra $2/hr when I'm charge in the ED. Trust me, I often pass up the "opportunity" to be in charge because lately, the extra responsibility is totally not worth the extra $16 that I will net for the night.

But, if you could take the class without being expected to be in charge, it would probably be a good learning experience and one that you could benefit from.
