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

LoriAlabamaRN · Nov 18, 2005

Wow... here in southern Alabama people would kill to make over $10 an hour as a CNA... my facility starts untrained techs at $6.25, then raises it to $6.75 after they finish the certification class. All I can say is thank goodness I'm an RN! Of course here a 2 bedroom apartment runs about $300-$500 a month...

Central FL area $12/hr PRN to start as a PCT. I know some of the other hospitals in my area start around $10/hr.

hello,

Hired as a new CNA/LNA at 10.57 an hour in S. New Hampshire prn.There is an extra $1.75 for working 2nd shift, an extra 2.75 for working weekends and an extra 3.25 for working 3rd shift. The new RNs start at $20/hr and new LPNS start at $16/hr. LNA pay is not too bad to start with plus the

experience you get that helps with school. This is invaluable.

Peace and Grace to all:)

Just started 2 weeks ago, no experience as an LNA, but am in nursing school, for $10/hr base pay. Shift diff. for my 3-7 shift, and weekend shifts. They said they normally only hire those with experience, but hired me because I'm in nursing school (and are desperate for RN's. I'm thinking the NM is hoping I'll stay on after I graduate). I think they're also tired of paying agency LNA's $20/hr.
