Urgent Care Offer- New Grad- Texas


Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone, 

I just received an Urgent Care offer in Texas.  Any thoughts/input are appreciated :) 

 

Open 365 days a year

Full Time = 36-40 hrs per week

Training period- 3 months with direct supervision

Shifts are 8 hrs long

Compensation : $40/hr  - I asked if this would go up after the training period, however was told that it would  be dependent upon the 'SP's  professional opinion".  I don't know if this is normal? 

CME: $500/yr, nothing mentioned about time off

PTO: 1 week for 0-12 months of experience, 10 days PTO for 2 years of clinical experience 

Pts per hour: 3-5 on busy day

Holidays: pay time and a half

Benefits:

-health insurance

-life insurance

-disability insurance- optional

Malpractice is covered by them, unsure about tail coverage. 

No student loan assistance.

They recently opened up a 2nd location and I would be a new provider training at the old location until an established patient base knows about the 2nd location. My permanent base would be determined later on after knowing more from the 2nd location

Both UC locations are about 30 mins away from my home, but in opposite directions.

It's in north central texas. I know cost of living is less here than DFW but still.... not by that much. I thought $40/hr sounded low/off, even for a new grad. 

Are you currently doing UC in DFW? Or was this from previous interviewing experience? 

Much appreciated for your thoughts!

I am not currently doing UC.  This was from a year ago during a job search.
