lebonheur starting pay rate is $20.25 (if you are not an extern there) and $20.75 if you are...$4.50 shift diff from 3-11 and $4 from 11p-7a...with $8 on weekend and holidays

Thats the same for Methodist. Lebonheur is in the Methodist system

[hbgwan, LPN, LVN]

baptist is 22.55 an hour. i'm not sure what shift diffs are - just do a search and they'll come up. they're on one of the TN pay rate threads. i want to say 2nd shift is 4.50, 3rd shift is 4.00 and weekends are 4.50, in addition to 1.00 bedside shift diff.

I just was hired at Lebonheur as a new RN and the new grad pay is 21.00 an hour. I have been an LPN for 5 years so I received a little extra.

This may be a dumb question, but why is the shift diff less for 11p-7a than 3-11? It seems to me that the 3rd shift is the worst, so the shift diff should be the greatest?

[hbgwan, LPN, LVN]

umm...i think it has to do with the fact that 3rd shift seems to be MUCH calmer than first and second. yes the fatigue factor plays a role but in general, the patients are asleep and not ringing the call button.

St. Francis starts new grads at 20.80 with benefits, shift diff is 4.25 that's for 3-11, 11- 7a, and week-ends, bedside is 1.00.

The Nurse recruiter offered me 18.00-19.00/hr to start as a new grad RN at covenant health in Knoxville,TN.
