DCH Increasing Applications with Increasing Wages

      Daviess Community Hospital is reporting a strong increase in applications and interest across positions—especially nursing—since announcing a more than $1.6 million annual wage investment late last year.
      The initiative included raising the inpatient registered nurse pay range to $33-to–$45 per hour.
      In addition to the nursing scale change, DCH implemented market-aligned hourly wage adjustments across hospital and clinic departments.
