I asked HFH but they can't match the rate. They said they have to maintain their integrity and thus can't pay one nurse more than what the other nurses w/ the same experience make. I'm going w/ Beaumont...The pay difference is really significant....

I have applied to several hosp in MI- Henry Ford Hosp. Beaumont, Crittenton, DMC and got job offers...I fell in love with HFH BUT the pay really sucks....I'm at the top range with 15 years experience. Only HFH offered the lowest rate all the rest are about the same. Any thoughts??? I've been reading other posts and most everyone says HFH has better pay, benefits etc.... Just curious since I have all materials with me, interviewed with those hosp., etc. and to me the difference in health insurance and other benefits is NOT that significant. What is significant is the pay. HFH pay is about $4/hr less than the other hospitals... Also I know they don't give ANY raise at HFH at this time.

Hello. I am currently working in Chicago and we are planning to move to Michigan to be closer to family. I am just wondering if someone can give me an idea how much base rate would be for Med Surg BSN nurse. I make around $35 right now and I've been a nurse for 15 years. I'm just hoping the pay cut won't be that bad.... We're looking to move to Royal Oaks/Birmingham area. Thanks!!!!

I work at IL Masonic and we have a nurse residency program for new grads. I think start pay is around $27/hr.
