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

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!

$11/hour in Maryland.

California, the land of the $200,000 ghetto.

$10 as a starting wage? In my dreams. My starting wage as an NA was $6. When I got certified it went to $7. Now it's $8. It ain't gonna go much higher. Good thing I don't have a family to support. I don't know how people do it.

In a Level II Trauma hospital, in Spokane, WA. Starting pay is $10.75 with one year experience (plus $0.10 per year experience). Evening shift differential is $1.00, NOC differential is $1.50 and weekend differential is $1.21. So, since I work Eves and have 3 years experience, I make $11.95 during the week and $13.16 on weekends. RNs start out here at $19.00 per hour, so I'm not doing THAT bad.
