The city

Living in Marquette, MI

Marquette sits on Lake Superior's southern shore in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, offering RNs a close-knit, outdoorsy community. Presque Isle Park and miles of rugged coastline define daily life, while Northern Michigan University brings a college-town energy to this small but culturally vibrant city.

More about UP Health System

If you qualify as a full-time Clinic LPN, there is a $7,500 sign-on. You would be at UP Health System in Marquette, part of Lifepoint Health. Full- and part-time benefits include medical, dental, and vision; life, accident, critical-illness, and hospital indemnity; short- and long-term disability; paid family leave; PTO; and a 401(k) match. There is tuition help for school and certifications, loan assistance, wellness programs, and a free gym membership. Staff-submitted Glassdoor RN salaries sit between $92K and $117K a year from 17 reports; BSN reports sit $94K-$119K from 13 reports. A BSN RN talked about benefits, the commute, peers, and a wide patient mix. An older review praised colleagues and the nursing staff. You should also know an RN in 2022 described shortages, more work with fewer resources, new executives, and lost clinical managers. A 2015 review said you could not change jobs inside the department for six months or leave it for a year; that may no longer be the rule.

What nurses say in reviews

Nurses have praised colleagues, benefits, commute, peers, and a wide patient mix. Others described staffing shortages, leadership turnover, and, in one 2015 review, a 6-12 month wait before an internal transfer. A 2024 care aide called the work tedious, physical, and understaffed.
