What is it like working as a nurse in Philadelphia? Specifically in the ICU. And how is the pay?


February 20th, 2025

The pay is good-$50-65;hr but the commute is tough if you dont live in the city. The ICUs are good since most hospitals are teaching hospitals. You have to also pay parking usually and the city wage tax. Main Line health has a lot of hospitals, lankenau is close to the city but you do not have to pay city tax or parking.
