I've been an LPN in a clinic setting for 2 months now. I make only $9.50 per hour... It's not much, but LPN jobs are scarce in my area. I figured I would take it for a while, until I could find something else. I get weekends & holidays off, & only work 8 am- 3 pm!

Fulltime visiting nurse in FL making $30/visit, 35-40 visits a week plus $200/month gas and cell phone reinbursement. I'm single with no kids, so this is a comfortable salary for me.

Been licensed since 2/08. Left a hospital in Indiana making $17.46base w/ $1.50 more for nights and $1.75 more for wknds. Moved to Florida (north of Tampa area) and they are getting rid of LPN's in hospitals. Worked for a short time in ltc facility for 17.80 base w/ $1 for evening shift. Now working for a staffing agency that staffs only hospitals and it $26 for wknights, $28 for wkends. Not worth it though since there is no work in late spring/summer/fall because all the snowbirds go back north! Dr's offices are advertising anywhere form $12-$17/hr.

LPN for 3 years. I was making $18 an hour with no benefits in FL working part-time in an LTC.
Decided to move back to Canada almost a year ago. I'm now in a union working in medical rehab. I make $24.68 an hour plus $2.75 shift dif for eves and $3.25 shift dif for wknds. I also have full benefits that cost me about $28 a month with no out of pocket expenses. I have a regular part-time line on which I earn vacation time and sick time. The only time I have more than 7 patients is when we're short-staffed.

Upstate new York - long term care nursing home, 15.90/hr with benefits, 401 k, and shift diff for 2nd and nite shift....BUT they just cut out our overtime pay - we used to get time and a half for working late or pick up on our weekend off - no more! Now only if you work more than 40 hrs in a week. So now some of us LPN's get more pay and some are losing up to 150.00 per pay period due to our respective schedules! They say it is due to Medicare funding cuts! SO WATCH out it may happen to you next!
