how much Indiana nurses make

lisa122 · Dec 14, 2004

I dont work for less than 30/hour. I average around 40/hour (with benefits but no overtime) doing acute dialysis.
The higher paying jobs are out there, just keep an eye out for them follow the money trail.

Are you working in Indiana? What part of Indiana, that sounds like quite a bit of money!! I haven't heard of that high of pay in the Lafayette/Indy area unless it is agency. Sounds enticing!

I'm still waiting to hear how much Indiana office nurses are making. If you're out there, please share your office specialty and salary range. My salary stinks!

I interviewed for a Dr office job near Indy, but when I found out the pay was $9.50/hr, I said forget it! I have heard from other nurses here that drs office nurses do not get paid well. I will be making about $20/hr when I start home health, and it is in a small rural Indiana community

Smarkley,

Did you work in an OR before becoming an office nurse/private scrub for the surgeon? Or did he train you himself? Just wondering bec I am considering surgery.........

smarkley · Mar 25, 2005

I worked in the OR for about 1 1/2 years before I became a private...he had to train me on some aspects such as closing the skin, but I was familiar with the procedures and the instruments. If you are interested in the OR, you should look into it...I love it! It can be very challenging at times but the technology that the surgeons use is amazing. I find it very interesting work.

I live about an hour from Indy! (noticed that is where you are from). Community Hosp is holding a 7 month training program for nurses interested in the OR. I am going to check it out. I have never worked at any of the Community hospitals. Are you familiar with them or this program?

nursejennie76 · May 13, 2005

I have been a LPN for almost 5 years and just finished my RN and will graduate tomorrow. I make 15.50 now as an LPN doing home care. I will be working in a ER at a magnet hospital starting Monday and I will make 22$ per hour plus 4$ an hour more for nights. Gotta love that magnet status!!

What a CHEAPscape of a doc! Good for that RN for quitting! :angryfire
I am trying to get a travel nurse assignment to Indianapolis, Indiana by the end of June. Does anyone know a great place to go work in that city?
I'm going there to spend the summer (maybe longer). :)

Methodist is a great hospital.
