There is not a pay scale that reflects how nurse salaries are formulated. The requirements of the role are no longer accurately reflected in the job description. The flexibility that is used to lure nurses away from the bedside isn't real. "Flex time" has to be requested ahead of time and isn't guaranteed which makes scheduling appointments difficult. Nurses are required to clock in and out for the day, as well as for lunch, just like hourly employees though the position is salary. If you finish your work for day early before your end time, you cannot leave, you have to stay to the end of the shift and be in 'ready' status in the live call queue.
