I'm wondering too! Just passed Nclex and wondering if I should get a few certifications for higher pay.

As a newly licensed LVN I was wondering that as well so I did some research as too the minimum maximum pay rates here locally between LA county and Orange county. What I found is that on average you can expect a starting pay of anywhere between $18 and $22 per hour. Which one depends entirely on the type of job(snf or hospital) and the place itself. Also if your located in central California you could look into the state jobs. They just opened up some jobs and they start around $2,500 - $4,000 monthly salary. I hope this helps out and best of luck.
