  • Anaheim CA, (Orange County) - $29.50 base pay, $2.50 evening differential, $4.50 night differential for a New Grad on Telemetry/Step-Down. We are the lowest paying hospital in the area (but hospital jobs are so hard to get here as a new grad, so it is almost totally staffed with new grads (scary), and people usually stay in this hospital a year and then bounce). They are renegotiating our salary to start in September to be $38 an hour base pay, $2.50 evenings and $4.50 nights. Time and a half for OT.

I'm not sure if I read your comment about OT the way you meant it, but since you are a new grad and may not know, it's against the law to NOT pay you time and a half for any hours over 40 in a week or 80 in two weeks. Hospitals where nurses are union, unions can negotiate for a better deal when it comes to OT, but what I stated is the minimum that hospitals must pay hourly nurses for OT.

In the Quad Cities as a new grad in a hospital, base is 23.72, nights is 12% differential and $1 differential for weekends. Charge/precepting $2 extra. Picking up for incentive is $9 extra. Definitely the low end in Illinois when looking at Chicago/suburb pay.

That's an ok pay for SNF. I was payed the same working in SNF.

Florida can be crappy-new grads in one of the largest hospital systems in the US had recently increased from $22/hr(2016) to $24/hr in 2018. Not sure what the current RN start rate is now but SNF used to pay significantly better than them back in the early 2000s.

IHS in Phoenix pays 100,000 a year, maybe a bit more. You have to do an extra 8 hr shift q 2 weeks to make 80 hours per pp. similar to VA

Does IHS require a BSN? Someone told me they do, but in their ads they don't specify that. Just curious.
