Chief financial officers (CFOs), nursing supervisors and the assistant director of nurses were among the top positions that experienced the highest salary increases in 2014.
On average, nursing Home CFOs saw their annual salaries in 2014 jump 2.97% to $129,958, whereas nursing supervisors’ (RN) salaries rose 2.82% to $64,699 and director of nurses grew 2.74% to $86,766.
Director of information services and nursing home administrator helped round out the top-5 jobs that saw the greatest salary bumps in 2014, rising 2.71% to $64,825 and 2.65% to $106,953, respectively.
