More about Idaho Falls Community Hospital

Open RN work spans Med-Surg, ICU, NICU, OR, PACU, and Endoscopy, often posted alongside Mountain View Hospital. If you are relocating, postings call out a sign-on bonus and paid relocation for experienced RNs. On the benefits side you will see a 401K with up to a 6% match, an earned quarterly bonus program, education reimbursement, medical/dental/vision, and PTO that depends on full-time, part-time, or PRN status. The city itself sits roughly 6% below the national cost of living, in a compact-license state with a flat income tax near 5.7%. Nurses who have been here talk up culture and coworkers; the same voices also say pay could be better, especially once you have tenure. That gap shows up in the broader review mix—worth weighing before you decide.
