More about TriStar Horizon Medical Center
Tennessee does not take state income tax out of your wages, and it participates in the nurse license compact, which matters if you are moving or already hold a compact license. Beyond that, concrete numbers on pay, ratios, residency, and day-to-day scheduling for this hospital are not in the material we have. Nearby, Dickson Health and Rehab shows up in local comparisons with posted pay around $30 an hour. Use that only as a rough local marker while you ask Horizon directly about the role you want.
