More about State of Hawaiʻi
The posting is written for entry or full performance and lists $4,905. It does not say whether that number is monthly, annual, or another period, so you would want that spelled out before you run the numbers. Honolulu County is tropical, outdoor, and built around hospitals, and it is also extremely costly — living expenses sit far above the national average. People here talk about paying more to live close (Kaka'ako comes up for nurses who want to walk or hop a Biki bike to a Honolulu hospital) or living farther west in Ewa or Kapolei for more space and taking a morning drive that often runs an hour or more between 5:30 and 7:00 a.m. If you are traveling in, you would need to lock housing down carefully before you land. Nurses on the Glassdoor profile that hosts this LPN job give it a 3.3 — mixed. That profile is labeled State of Hawaii Department of Taxation. Nearby you will also see Queen's Medical Center, Care Hawaii, BAYADA Home Health Care, and Pharmacare Hawaii if you are lining up options.
