Shift differential?

Oh my, shift diffs can become very complicated. Don't forget Baylor pay: you work an unpopular shift (say weekends) and get paid for 40 hours. A friend of mine does this and although she only spends 24 hours at the job she's paid for 40. Lucky.

It seems from other threads that the Southeast pays lower base rates but the diffs are a little better here in GA. Most hospitals here pay $4 extra from 3-11, $5 from 11-7, anywhere from $6-9 for weekends. Our hospital got rid of on-call pay except for times of urgent need. It's usually time and a half.

Oh, and then there are premiums for Flex staff who turn down benefits plus regular bonuses for a certain number of hours of work completed. I don't know anything about the specifics, though.

Congrats on the grades!

For PRN work I make 18% above my base wage. Evenings is 10% and nights is 12%. I then make $2.00 more an hour just to work weekends, Friday is considered a weekend where I work. I then also get $1.00/hr for critical care. All those add up to a nice chuck of change for my PRN tech job in the ICU where I just work 1-12 hour shift a week on Friday nights.

the place that i am planning on working (a nursing home) only pays a $0.75 shift differential. on the weekends they give $2.00 for working weekends plus the $0.75 shift differential. they also throw in bonuses if you work extra shifts when they are really desperate. i don't mind the low differential because they pay alot higher than most places around here especially the hospital.
