More about Cape Cod Healthcare

Cape Cod Hospital is the 240-bed acute-care anchor in town, founded in 1919; Falmouth Hospital is the other inpatient site if you would rather live on that side of the Cape. If you already carry cardiovascular or critical care experience, recent postings have advertised a $30,000 sign-on bonus, a $6/hour night differential, and a $2/hour weekend differential. Falmouth Clinical Nurse base pay has been stated at $60.73–$75.80/hour plus differential, and RN ICU roles at Falmouth have posted $38.36–$78.11/hour and been marked sign-on eligible. ICU work here expects charge readiness plus BLS, ACLS, and passing the system’s pharmacology and basic arrhythmia exams. Nurses on the ground describe a friendly, teamwork-heavy culture. Flexible scheduling gets real praise, though staffing shortfalls are said to erode work-life balance, and some reviewers want clearer pay transparency and more development support from leadership. About 83% of 149 Glassdoor reviewers would recommend the system to a friend, with an overall rating of 3.7.
