My experience is that the starting salary is between $90k and $95k for NP 1 at Parkland. I'm not sure if that would differ between clinics, but I doubt it.

DFW seems to be a tough market depending on where exactly you are looking. The areas in and around Dallas are tough for new grads, but the outlying areas seem to have more options. My advice is to apply to everything and anything you can! It took me about 3 months of solid job hunting to find something as a new grad. Best of luck!

Thank you! That sounds about average for the area for family practice as well. I don't have a strong hospice background, per say, but I worked med/surg for many years and did end of life care as an RN. I am looking at other factors in addition to salary, but I feel like when you say that in an interview, it's fair game to low ball the offer! I just try not to under/over value my skills while also understanding that years of nursing experience do not equate to years of NP experience. Wish they taught that in school!

I'm a new graduate NP going on a second interview for a home hospice position. I suspect the dreaded "salary" question is going to come up. Would the salary for home hospice be different than the salary for other new graduate positions, like family practice? I am in the DFW area, if it makes a difference. This would be my first NP job out of school.
