Published

hey guys,

I've been an RN for about 7 months now in California. I work at Cedars Sinai who pays really well. ive had an idea of moving to Illinois cause I have alot of cousins over there. i just wanna kno (they live around the glendale heights region) how much an RN makes, caue i figure if I get promoted to CNII, then I woulld leave. I would have my experience to be hired as a CNII someone else in Illinois. How much does an RN make hourly in Illinois and and what is the patient ratio there? hope you guys can help me out.

I work in Chicago and new hires usually start off at 26/hr. This can change depending on the hospital, but most range from 24-28/hr. Hope this helps :)

It really depends on your experience and the amount you ask for.

At my hospital, starting nurses usually make $26/hr after their 90-day probation period. I started at $28/hr because I came in with experience.

Unrelated question, I guess, but I'm wondering if any of you newly hired nurses had to have a hair follicle pre-employment drug screening? I'm just a liiiiiitle worried about how far back that testing goes. Thanks.

I'm not sure where everyone is working or going, however I have a friend that's an LPN and was offered $25 /hr in the south suburbs. At the nursing home I work at new LPN's start off at $23/hr and most other nursing homes in my area do the same. Not sure about RN's
