More about BOULDER CITY HOSPITAL.
Full-time ED night shifts and MDS Coordinator work in LTC have been the roles showing up in recent postings. Indeed job cards have listed about $38.50–$51.40 an hour for ED nights and $38.00–$54.60 for the MDS role, with night differentials mentioned in hiring posts. Nevada has no state income tax. The pace is often slow: daily census has sat near two, average length of stay around 3.9 days, and some nurses call the volume very light compared with bigger Vegas hospitals thirty minutes up the road. Be clear-eyed about the change already underway. In March 2026 the hospital notified about 70 employees of termination within 60 days as it converts to a Rural Emergency Hospital on May 1, ending inpatient stays over 24 hours except in long-term care and cutting some surgical and psych services. If you still want a smaller community setting where reviewers praise coworkers and lower stress, read the current postings closely before you apply.
