Frequently asked questions

The weekend option differential at Catholic Health Initiatives adds $10 per hour for Saturday and Sunday shifts, boosting overall pay for RNs working weekends. This premium reflects the weekend commitment and makes the RN Weekend Option Med Surg position financially attractive in Lakewood’s competitive nursing market.

A minimum of one year in direct nursing practice, ideally in medical-surgical or trauma settings, is crucial. Familiarity with neuro, trauma, and orthopedic care enhances performance, especially on Lakewood's Level I trauma floor, where acute patient management skills are routinely applied.

This role serves as a strong foundation for advancing into critical care nursing or trauma specialties. The exposure to a Level I trauma center environment at St. Anthony Hospital equips nurses with skills transferrable to ICU, neuro, or emergency nursing roles, opening diverse clinical advancement opportunities.

Beyond a current RN license valid in Colorado or through the National Licensure Compact, certifications related to trauma or medical-surgical nursing can enhance candidacy. Given the trauma center setting, ACLS or trauma nursing certification would be advantageous but not mandatory.

Typical salaries range from $70,000 to $85,000 annually, factoring in the $10/hour weekend differential and night shift pay. This compensation aligns with regional trends for experienced RNs in trauma and med-surg units, balancing competitive wages with weekend shift premiums.

Catholic Health Initiatives offers a $20,000 sign-on bonus and relocation assistance, along with a strong team culture within a Level I trauma center. The weekend differential and night shift premium create a financially rewarding package uncommon among local weekend RN positions.

This weekend option requires a six-month minimum commitment exclusively to weekend shifts, offering a dedicated schedule with extra pay incentives. Unlike flexible PRN weekend jobs, it ensures predictable hours and benefits, making it ideal for nurses prioritizing weekend work-life balance.

Lakewood’s growing healthcare sector drives steady demand for skilled weekend RNs, especially in trauma centers like St. Anthony Hospital. Weekend-only roles are sought after for work-life flexibility, but the specialized trauma focus narrows the candidate pool, increasing competition among qualified nurses.

Lakewood offers accessible routes to St. Anthony Hospital, but weekend traffic patterns and weather can influence commute times. Nurses should plan for potential delays during early morning or late-night shifts and consider proximity or carpool options to optimize punctuality for weekend hours.

Yes, eligible weekend RN hires may receive up to $8,000 in relocation aid plus a $20,000 sign-on bonus, provided they are full or part-time—not PRN. This benefit package surpasses many standard weekend nursing roles, reflecting the hospital’s commitment to attracting experienced weekend staff.
