''I Don't get Paid Enough!''- Is this your mantra??

Nurses General Nursing

there seems to be an increasing trend of people gravitating towards nursing for great pay, benefits, and flexibility! here in ny nurses on long island can start with as much as $70k, for all those who have worked as a nurse do you really believe your level of pay matches the level of care you administer or the amount of work you do? i'm an lpn and i do feel that i am underpaid for the level of care/tasks i am expected to perform.

Specializes in OB.

I'd have to say that I receive adequate pay for my work. That is because I am a travel nurse and I simply don't accept contracts for less than my minimum required amount. I'm grateful to have reached the age in life where I have the flexibility to do this.

However - putting up with some patients, families, doctors and administrators - there isn't enough money in the world to pay for that some days!
