As little as I like to admit it, most days my only motivation for going to work is to support my family. I am a FNPS and will be graduating in a year. I am currently located in Louisville KY, but am willing (and interested) in relocating for my first FNP position.
I am becoming concerned due to the salary data that I am able to gather, as it stands now, if I were to begin working as a new grad at 40 hrs/week in this area, I would take a 30-40% pay cut. (I work 60-70 hours/week now as the sole-income for my family)
I am willing to do pretty much whatever to make this work, I just don't have a great understanding of the opportunities afforded to Practitioners (PRN, Locum...) for supplemental income on top of a 40 hr/week position. Overall my goal (requirement) is to make $6,000 take-home monthly.
Anyone have any success in this environment?
Thanks!
