I am an ER nurse (RN, CEN) with over 12 years nursing experience who is planning to move from Georgia to Pennsylvania. Can anybody help me find out what kind of salary I can expect (or should require) in the Harrisburg, PA, region? Thank you.

Hello,

I was looking at the rates for an ER RN and thought that they seemed pretty high as most of the rates I have found are like around$14 to $15 an hour. But the rates I have found are also rates for people with lil or no expereince. I was wodnernig what the starting salaries would be for those same areas but for starting pay for people with no expereince.

Thanks,

Kim
