Who they are
You would be walking into West Kendall Baptist Hospital at 9555 SW 162nd Ave, a campus that opened in 2011 and grew again with a four-story East Pavilion—doubled ED, 70 new private inpatient rooms, cath lab, progressive care, and IR—finished in phases through early 2023. The building carries a Mediterranean LEED Gold design, and the system still holds more than 17 acres on site for later services.
If ICU nights are your lane, the board has carried full-time 7P–7:30A RN roles with a $25,000 sign-on and a Patient Care Nurse Supervisor ICU night role with $20,000. New graduates enter through the Baptist Health South Florida RN Residency—ANCC PTAP accredited with distinction through 2029, three cohorts a year—with a trained preceptor, simulation, debriefing, and a full year on the unit after orientation. Med-Surg shows up too, including 4 South Observation. Pineapple Perks cover two medical plans, dental and vision choices, free life/AD&D/STD/LTD, PTO up to 34 days, retirement with match, and a Tuition Benefit that can run 100% tuition-free or partially funded for undergrad and graduate work. Base hourly rates are not posted beside those bonuses, so you will want that number in the interview. Florida has no state income tax; Miami living still runs about 14% above the national price level, with housing as the main swing factor.
Why nurses stay
Parent system Baptist Health South Florida shows about 3.8/5 on Glassdoor from roughly 1,845 ratings, with around 74% willing to recommend. On-site, a Patient Care Supervisor was named DAISY Nurse Leader for the first half of 2026.
“I came for the sign-on bonus. I stayed because on my hardest night, my whole team stayed with me.”
The reality check
The first year has a shape: exam, license, first job, base year, then the move. Residency windows and commitments carry fine print worth reading before you sign.
