    I can'y believe that CNAs are making 20 an hour in some states! I live in Ky and the most I have ever made as a CNA was 11.00 an hour! and RNs here start out around 21.00.... Hopefully one day I can move outta state!


    Yep you need to get out of KY and earn some major dough....not that your earning something good already ya know? I figure anything over $20 is good. I know LVNs' who do agency make $33.oo so you would definately be in the $40 and higher range easy...(agency wise of course)
  2. What is required to be a PCT in the Seattle area? What are the wages like?
  3. Chicago suburbs I'm seeing $12 - $14.75 to start. More for weekends and night.

    Careful, I'd rather make $11 in most parts of KY than $20 in California, Northeast, or Chicago.

  5. I won't be going in as a NS but just a regular PCT. Is the pay still the same in Baltimore or just anywhere? Do you NS get paid more or less than those who just finished a PCT or CNA program?
  6. In 2009 it was $9.05/hr as a Brand New Tech in Southern Indiana.
  7. Quote from NRSNFL
    After the first semester of nursing school, Morton Plant Mease pays 11.09.
    Would this be LPN or RN school? UCH offers $9.22 for completing 2 semesters of LPN school. This doesn't sound decent compared to what I've read on other websites. If any nurse techs are reading this, what was your starting salary? And how many months of experience did you have at that time?

    TGH in Tampa pays nurse techs $12/hr just have to complete first semester of nursing.
    Would this be LPN or RN school? UCH offers $9.22 for completing 2 semesters of LPN school. This doesn't sound decent compared to what I've read on other websites. Does TGH still hire nurse techs? If any nurse techs are reading this, what was your starting salary? And how many months of experience did you have at that time?
  9. I work in a hospital in Missouri and I'm making 13.46 as a tech, $1.20 for the night differential and .75cents for weekends.
  10. I am excited this summer i will do cna + pct courses and i really hope to land a job in a hospital as soon as possible. I live in NYC and i am wondering how much the psy is to work in the hospital.
