Hi, everyone seemed to be enjoying the name your hospital and salary thread from NY and I noticed others would like to participate and know about other states. So everyone join in. Name your hospital, starting rate, and how much experience you have and your specialty. :Melody:

Tampa area, new grads start at $18-19.

I am amazed how lowly nurses are paid up north. I used to think the worst salaries are here in Fl. Also, $25 for new grad in California, where cost of living that high, is not too impressive either.

Specializes in med/surg, mother/baby.

In the San Jose area, new grads start around 38-40 I believe. I have almost two years experience, and receive approximately 41.5 + 20% for per diem. Night shift differential at my facility is $6, I think 3-4 for evenings, and 1.5 for weekends.

Specializes in med/surg, hospice, L & D.
SW Missouri

I've seen RN wages (starting, hospital) as low as $15.58 and I've seen them as high as $20.ISH at an acute long term care facility.

I started at $16.67 as a new grad.

I also work in SW Missouri and starting wages for new grads in my facility are $16.50. They give credit for LPN to RN of 2:1. Sounds like many other states are friendlier to nurses!! Hmmmm....
