CNA's/PCT's how much do you make?

Nursing Students CNA/MA

Published

I have a couple interviews for PCT positions, but I have no idea what to expect as a salary. I am a student nurse in NE FL. Please tell me where you live, your experience, and how much you make. I know I will probably have to take a pay cut, but to be doing what I am going to school for will be worth it, I think. Thanks for you help!

I just got a job. $9.25/hr. and it's part time NOC and on call. Needless to say I'm still job searching. I took it because it was the first call I received for an interview in over a month.

Forgot to mention...this is in Southern CA.

The job I have yet to start, I will be making $14.00/hr.

Not sure about that neck of the woods..but in the ER at the county hospital in the Texas Medical Center the starting pay is $14+

In Austin, TX: $10.75/hr with no experience. Extra $1.30 for nights. 36 hrs/week, 12 hr shifts. Tuition reimbursement after 6 months of employment. Benefits are a bit expensive to me. I can buy a plan online for my husband and I for about half the price with similar benefits. Go to esurance.com to look at plans before you decide on taking your employer's benefits package.

Just got a job at a hospital here in Austin, TX. No experience. Was offered $10.10 per hour for full-time, 12hr shifts, days. They do pay more for nights and weekends, but I have't found out how much yet (I think if you work weekend nights you'll make about $5 more per hour). They also have plenty of overtime available, and if you volunteer to come in on less than 24hrs notice they pay you $2 more per hour on top of your time and a half for overtime. So if you work 4 shifts per week instead of three, you can virtually double your salary for the week with just a little strategic planning!

They do offer full benefits, tuition reimbursement, and I was told at my interview that I'm basically guaranteed an RN job when I graduate if I work for them through nursing school. Pretty great to have my tuition paid and have a job waiting for me when I graduate! (I'm sure I'll have to work for them for at least a year or two as an RN if they're paying my tuition, but we haven't gotten that far in the conversation yet).

After working in NYC for years, this TX salary was a bit of a shocker. But cost of living here is much lower too!

OMG!!! I am surprised at the low pay rates in other states....:eek:!! I've been a CNA for merly 4yrs. in California and I make $22.05 plus 25% per diem differential, which makes it what??? Almost $27!!! Big difference....

Too bad the cost of living is high and 1/2 OF your check goes to bills and rent. Dang California lower your cost...lol (insider)
