The short version

  1. The one opening we have listed pays $39.00 an hour flat — no range to negotiate inside, so you know the number before you interview.

  2. Charting runs on PCC, the long-term-care system most skilled nursing floors use, so onboarding is mostly workflow rather than a new EHR from scratch.

  3. Staff reviews describe CNAs and floor nurses answering call lights together across shifts, which matters when you are still building speed.
