I have been a Travel Nurse for a year and a Nurse for 23 years where the first 5 years were as a LPN mainly in Critical Care and the rest as a RN in the ICU for 20 years.

I make about $35/hr. average with my housing subsidy and my salary together which is ok for a Florida RN considering I have no kids, no husband and just moved home to Mom's. My car is paid for and her home was paid off about 14 years ago so my low bills make it an even higher wage.

I know I cold make much more working cross country but for now, this will be fine. To me it all has to do with how much you have left over after all bills are paid. I do pay in my Mom's home and pick up lots of restaurant tabs but I feel that when you come home after a long, hard shift and you know that there is a really great meal waiting and your clothes are all cleaned and hung up that for me this is so worth paying into her home and also, she loves the company. She's in her 70's and is healthy and I tell her how lucky she is to not be sick like these patients I take care of. She also enjoys the ability for me to drive her were she wants to go since she does not drive. So her social security plus my money makes for a comfortable life, financially.

:) :cool:

Staff RN

3 years

tele, preadmission testing

24.72hr casual pay

nurses starting out make about 16.13/hr.

Had to update this 2/14/02 because we have received across the board raises at our hospital!!:) I now make 27.72hr as a casual and new grads are getting about 20/hr. I was told our positions are down 13% in Ohio, so administration wanted to pay us more.

Full time and partime staff will receive a total of a 20% raise, 10% this year and 10% next year. When I started nursing in 1998, I was full time and started with 15.51 which take home is not even 30,000/yr. My husband was making 15/hr without a degree!

LVN since 1983 then RN since 1989

I do want to add that as an LVN I thought I knew a lot. Then I went to RN school and there was a lot more to learn. Now that I have been an RN for many years I KNOW I am ignorant to most fields that I am not currently working in : )
