This is quoted from a message board/nurses forum from a post in November 2011

"I can give some concrete numbers here. Vanderbilt's new grad pay was $18.25/hr, HOWEVER, they just passed a new budget that is making new grad pay $20.85 (I think...definitely twenty something.) To work at Vanderbilt you have to apply via the nurse residency program. The pay for a ADN/BSN is exactly the same (a nurse is a nurse is a nurse.) Shift diff is as follows:
7pm-11pm-$3.00/hr more
11pm-7am--$3.50/hr more
weekends--$6.00/hr more (this stacks with night diff, so a Sat night is work $9!)
Holidays (seven recognized major holidays) $5/hr more, plus you get 7.2hrs of PTO whether you work it or not. Vanderbilt also has a comprehensive benefits package (also new--starting Jan 1st (I think) you get medical insurance day of hire, instead of waiting 90 days.)

A lot of "topped out" nurses make much more, $30+/hr, and PRN nursing also makes more. (For example, I recently explored one temp agency in Nashville that offers $33/hr base for med-surg nurses, no benefits of course.)

I think Baptist/St Thomas start new grads at $17.??, but I don't work there, so I can't say for sure. HTH. Congrats on graduating!"


You might want to check out United States Nursing - Helping You Be a Better Nurse and make your way down to the Tennessee section. You probably will do good by perusing through all the posts there. You'll find some answers to your questions as well as find information on stuff you hadn't thought of - most likely. If not, sign up (it's free just like here) and start a new thread with whatever question(s) you might have.
