Commentary
VERY poor pay for RDs at Cherokee Nation Health services. I went from Outpatient to critical care inpatient with no bump in pay and no salary increase for extra credentials, so most RDs stopped pursuing any that are offered due to this. Their pay cap is 74k even for RDs with >25y experience. We need help.
