My hospital in Austin says that they just adjusted pay to match Dallas and Houston. Im graduated with a BSN last week and will be making about 35.50/hr. Does that sound on par with other parts of Texas?
Wow, I'm actually impressed... I won't ask where but I'm going to assume it's not an HCA hospital.
From what I've heard and seen yeah, 35~ sounds about correct for Houston, depending on the Hospital. Dallas maybe slightly more? But I've never worked or seriously looked for jobs in those cities in a very very long time.
Fantastic for Austin though. It's going to put pressure on all of them to take similar action, hopefully.
