What's the typical pay like in the ER or Trauma Unit for a person who just started in the ER compared to a more experienced ER nurse???

Our baby nurses start at $18.75 with no extra for certifications. I've been around a while and make $32.54 with no extra for certifications. Certifications are required to work in the area, not something one gets to earn extra money.

please ...............when we talk of money we need to know where you are and level of exp.

not simply i make x/hr.

thanks.

Plus, is that a per diem rate or do you also get benefits. Around here, if you give up your bennies, you get more per hour. :specs:

I work in the ED in two hospitals, both in the county I live in NC, I think they start all new grads at $17.00, no matter what degree or unit.:smokin:

Southern California - $27.00 + diff. for new grad. ER doesnt get paid more but sign on bonus is $1000.00 more. Cost of living here is CRAZY, I will probably never be able to afford a house here, and I have lived here my whole life, so it depends also on cost of living.

Hi here in MA new nurses start at $25.83 with a night diff of $4.50 and evening diffof $3.50 There is no difference between ER/ICU or floor nursing

We pay by nursing experience not ER experience the senior nurse with >10 years as a nurse and has worked more then one year in the facility makes 46.75/hr :eek: soory did not mean to brag

In the hospital I work the start pay for new grads is $17.50 an hour, there is no "unit" differential or increased hourly rate for certifications, BSN'S and ADN's make the same...and I'm pretty sure that is that same for the other hospital in town...:bugeyes:

I work in Hickory NC, I have 10 years experience

Rachet,

Where in NC do you live? I am in Kernersville and have worked at hospitals in W-S, G'boro, and High Point.

Specializes in ED, ICU, NICU, CTICU< any areas.

Here in Australia we get different pay in all States, but in my state we get from first year to eight year a pay increase then it just stops there, you dont get any more for any area you work in. As for ALSC, TNCC u dont get any more pay. So for your whole career u stay at Year 8 pay!! No incentives to do anything else.

I work in Northern Indiana (ER) level 2, new grads start at $19/hr. We have nearly $2 hourly differentials. WE do not get any premium for certifications because they are part of the hiring/orientation process.

Hope this helps someone...

How do you go about asking for more money during the interview? I am always too shy and I feel like I'm being rude.
