More about Kindred Hospital Denver
The work is extended-recovery, hospital-level care for patients who need more time than a short stay allows, with 24-hour clinical coverage seven days a week. Patients come from the Front Range, the western slopes of Colorado, and farther. If you are weighing a contract stretch, MedSurg postings have described PM 12-hour shifts at 36 hours a week, with weekly figures in the neighborhood of $1680–$1710. What you will not find clearly spelled out in the open record is a straightforward staff RN base rate—those weekly numbers read like travel- or contract-style pay, not a published staff scale. Roles surface under Lifepoint Health, which carries about a 3.1 rating in the listing context. Denver itself sits a bit above the national cost of living, with a flat state income tax around 4.4% and compact-license access across Colorado. Nearby systems on the same map include Denver Health, AdventHealth, and HCA HealthOne, so you can compare floors and offers without leaving the metro.
