@ AZ911Nurse2B > The nurse recruiter/scouting agency Trinity is associated with quoted me $23/hr for my 4 years experience in med-surg. That is WAY too low! They pay new grads under $20/hr. Combine that with cost of living and next to non existant expensive housing spells trouble. Consider what netglow and mamabear4 wrote;... it would be crippleing. Also I checked out the nurse recruitor/agency Trinity is associated with and I think they are making their money off us nurses. Seemed pretty questionable (shadey). I wish you the best of luck though :>)

Really low! I think I made just below the hourly wage as a new grad. I have 3 years and 3 months of hospital experience and I was quoted aprox $23-$23.50/ hour (for med-surg floor). But I would get the relo and the sign on. What I am concerned about is the cost of living, with the flood and all there is very little housing. This could effect the price of housing and if I have to commute it would be even more expensive. The hospital does have housing (not sure about the cost), but there is a wait list. It seems like us RN's are really getting low-balled as far as pay (nursing shortage...right? hmmmm). Sorry if this was TMI, I am new here.

Hi there, I read that post as well and checked it out. The person to contact would be (MODERATOR EDIT OF CONTACT NAME/ENTITY - PLEASE DO NOT POST THIS PER TOS). I did check it out and it is legitamate. The pay is very low and the housing is almost non existant, so I am not sure if it is really worth the move. They do offer $5000 relocation and $5000 sign on bonus. I am going through them right now because it is very difficult to find a job where I am at. They also hire new grads at Trinity. PM me if you want more info. Best of luck! Dawn
