Home Health rates and Job Hunting in Southern California area advice
Hi,
I'm a new grad DPT, looking to get into home health as my main full time job long term. I am located in Southern California/ looking to work in the LA county, orange county coastal areas.
I have applied and interviewed with some companies and currently received back my first offer which I think from general research it is way under competitive rates.
Basically I want to ask as a "new grad DPT" (does that limit my negotiation power for income, and by how much?)
* what salary/hr rate should i expect for a full time in SoCal (LA county, orange county coastal areas) region?
* what about mileage rates?
* what rates should i expect for PPV?
The offer i received as a PPV:
-Initial Oasis SOC: $95
-ROC Oasis $90
-Discharge Oasis $90
-Initial eval re-eval $85
-Follow up visit, PT discharge visit: $75
-Mileage - Current Federal Rate
Thank you. any insight or advice i would definitely appreciate!
