How Much do Nurses Make?

HOW MUCH DO NURSES MAKE? RN SALARY
Check out my blog ➡️➡️➡️ healthandwillness.org
If you've found yourself asking "how much do nurses make?" you've come to the right place! I was a bedside RN for 4 years and now I work with nurses every day. You could simply google the answer, but the problem with that is it's not specific to you or your scenario. You can use these 6 factors to figure out how much you can make as a nurse in your area!
Edit: My rent was $435 a MONTH, not an hour

    Great video Will -- Nurses make differently based on their education and training!! Keep in mind CRNA, ER RN, ICU RN are most specialized and make a bit more depending on where you live!! 😃😃

    It’s crazy how California is the highest paying state for nursing. One thing to really consider is the nurse to patient rations that California nursing board mandates! That makes being a nurse worth it in California. SoCal starting rate at a hospital for a new grad RN is 40-45hr

    It is for sure worth it, the safe staffing model will hopefully spread out to keep us all safe. You just need to find a place to live for a decent price with the exploding housing market

    Thank you for the valuable information! I was wondering if you happen to transfer from travel nurse to permanent nurse, how do you handle the reference check?

    It's important as nurses to know our worth. Sometimes this may require relocation but our job is hard and we worked hard for that degree. This is why it's so important to normalize discussing salaries. I know some nurses in NYC who started out making 57$ an hour. This may require some travel if you don't live in the city but the pay is worth it.

    Great vid with detailed insight! I think the number one thing is going to be location. I started as a new grad RN in the Bay Area, California and the wages are through the roof! I even made a vid about it lol. Definitely true about the cost of living! Below 82K in the San Francisco county is considered low class, can you believe that?! What's nice tho is that tangible goods like clothes, phones, and maybe even cars will be roughly the same cost (not considering trash california's trash tax rates lol).

    Nurses With Attitude yes, that’s why I chose San Francisco’s because wages there are so high, but also rent is too! Location for sure makes a huge impact

    Ha. My new grad pay in rural NC was $20.91 and my rent was $700. Then they didn't give anyone raises my second year. It was time to run!

    Some places they really try to get away with paying the nurses super low. If that is your only option it can be helpful to discuss weekend contract or other contract positions to increase your hourly rate. If that doesn't work then like you said its time to look elsewhere lol

    Will, how long were you a registered nurse before becoming a nurse practitioner? Wondering if I should be working and gaining experience before I transition.

    It looks like they make on average around 130k AUD or 90-95k USD. This is average so starting out I would guess a little less and then as you gain experience negotiate from there

    Hmmmm.... Most of the hospital RN's I know make much less than RN's in most other roles. Nurses only work in the hospital long enough to get experience. I have been a nurse since 1994. Also, outside the hospital most do not pay any differently based on degree between bachelors or associates. I don't know everything, but I do know what we offered nurses when I worked in a more human resources role. Maybe this is just for central VA. Also some of my home health jobs have been the highest paying, along with agency positions which can command upwards of $45/hour with an associates. Apparently, VA is great for RNs! 🙋🏾

    These salaries are gross salaries, so taxes are taken out. For me, I find multiplying the salary by .7 comes pretty close to my take home pay. Then divide by 26 to get your biweekly estimated pay

    Do hospitals allow you to work 12 hour day shifts on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday OR Sunday? That would be a perfect schedule for me. Thank you. Great video content!

    This really will depend on the hospital. It is common to have to work every other weekend though.

    Completely depends on the hospital and even the department. One of my managers was very fine with allowing us to self schedule unless people made it a big deal - and that was only mid shift issues. We only had 2 people at a time working 12-12 or 1-1 so if there was someone hired who didn't think they should work weekends and the other person complained, it became an issue. But at my hospital weekend shift diffs are very high so most of the time it was never an issue.
