Hospice Social Worker here in Portland OR.. I took my current position in May at $38 an hour. It's the highest they said they could pay me knowing it's way less than other agencies in our area, but I took it because my caseload is small (part time 3 days a week with about 14 patients). BUT the cost of living keeps getting higher 🥴 What are others making in this field in metro areas?

Thats actually awesome. Here on the outskirts of Philadelphia, it's $30hr if lucky.

Yep, here in Dallas I make about $32 per hour. I also deal with it because of the low caseload, but I have a side hustle because ~inflation~.

I think that's pretty average at the moment...would you be willing to switch places though?

PRN at another job like the hospital. I guess the cost of living really plays a huge part because $38/hr in SC for a social worker is extremely rare outside of therapy roles.

I make $41 in Medford as a CSWA- expecting a decent bump once my LCSW goes through.

Looking for advice! I was approved to work remotely but my salary will decrease 10%. I received two raises so the decrease brings me down to my previous salary. I was told that it’s due to the cost of labor in the area.

I’ve been with my company for 8+ yrs, I love my manager and the work I do (engagement, recognition, & wellness programs) but I feel like I’m limiting myself since I have the experience, an HRM degree, and SHRM-CP credentials.
