Pay & Requirements

What RNs Earn in Houston

RN pay in Greater Houston is competitive and depends on specialty, shift, facility type, and experience. Your recruiter will review current rates for your specialty and shift with you before you accept an assignment. Every Hearthstone RN is a W-2 employee — not a 1099 contractor — which means weekly pay and payroll tax withholding, not just a per-shift check.
