forgive my ignorance but what is a baylor program?

i'm looking to move to sylacauga. i'm a bsn nurse with 2 years icu and 3 years er experience. i am currently a charge nurse in a 36 bed er in the new orleans area. i do not need benefits as i have benefits through my wife. the program i am in now is basically a float pool except i refuse to float outside of the er and i get my way since i am one of the charge nurses. my pay is currently $37 plus diffs. my questions are, what are the hospitals paying in the birmingham/sylacauga area for nurses without benefits. what are the better hospitals to work at. in the next year or so i plan on attending crna or med school so uab is a plus in that area. i would like to try to keep my salary around what it currently is if possible. any and all help is greatly appreciated.

thanks for the replies and i am aware of the prior thread, but if possible, i need the name of the hospital and location so that i can call and talk to the ED director for some information. the prior thread did not include this info as far as i saw.

if you work at a hospital or know of a hospital with a triage pain protocol, please message back the name/city/state of the hospital. i'm on a joint commision committeefor my hospital and the director wants to start a triage policy for pain treatment. they are looking at doing tylenol for mild pain, motrin for mod pain, and vicodin or percocet for sever pain. i have issues with this but i need to get info from other hospitals and no other in the area has a policy addressing this. any and all help is greatly appreciated.
