More about Avir at River Ridge
Texas does not take state income tax from your wages, and it is a compact-license state, which matters if you are relocating or already carry a compact RN license. Nearby names in the same market include CHRISTUS Health, Corpus Christi Medical Center, Driscoll Health, Driscoll Children’s Hospital, and DaVita; one nearby median in our data is CHRISTUS Health at about $28.25 an hour. What is not on file yet is Avir’s own pay range, scheduling pattern, float rules, residency path, or how nurses describe the floor. If you apply, those are the questions to bring to the recruiter and the tour.
