More about Roxborough Memorial Hospital

Hiring posts call out a $1.50 differential for the 3 pm–11 pm shift, another $1.00 differential (shift window not fully spelled out), and sign-on plus relocation pay without listing dollar amounts. CNA roles mention a sign-on bonus that varies by shift. Walk-in Wednesday events (every third Wednesday referenced) give you a face-to-face path in, and at least one PACU RN posting lists full-time days. Pay is the tradeoff one nurse names outright: not competitive with other hospitals nearby, and short-staffing shows up in the same review thread. Glassdoor sits around 3.3/5 across roughly twenty-five reviews, with about 42% saying they would recommend the place.
