NP Salaries/Location/Specialties

Published

I have been talking to NP's across different specialties and some make upwards of $220,000/year after taxes. I was wondering if you are currently working as a NP and are willing to share the following:

Specialty

Salary

Location

Thank you for sharing.

What is a day in the life of your job like? What do you do? Do you counsel the patients? I'm asking because I just want to get a feel for what your day is like.

Thanks,

I'm working in adult inpatient psych unit and crisis unit. Typically, I work 8-5, during morning I talk with the staff nurses and social worker about patients ' behavior. Then, my actual work starts by discharging patient, doing initials/ psych eval, follow ups and then dictating around 4pm.

I do brief supportive therapy here and there.

Hope that helps.

I am curious after reading this post a year later if your salary has improved?.... I am a new Adult/Gero NP and am considering moving to Florida in 2018 which would give me 2-years experience. My goal would be to start out between 90-95 K per year. Do you or anyone in the Florida area think this is reasonable? I just don't want to leave my job in Ohio and be completely disappointed ...Thanks!

I'm a pediatric NP in California. I currently make $125K annually, but this is recent as of this month. In Nov 2016 I'll be 2 years into the job, and I was started off at $110K annually

I am a new FNP and was wondering how much or what % I should be requesting for my annual raise? I started at a rural health clinic 8-5, no call, no weekends, and I started at $105K.

I'm not sure that I am the one to answer your question tNrN2fNp; this is my first position and I didn't ask or negotiate for the raise myself. Maybe some of the more senior NPs can answer this question better? I'm not sure that the 12% increase that I saw in salary is the normal as a raise...

Thank you for sharing your salary... I find many nurses who are NOT FNPs are the ones that like to chip in to discuss what they feel is realistic :)

I'd disagree that it isn't realistic for someone at the high end of our pay scale. If my math is correct its only $105 an hour for a 40h week, right? Although I work different jobs my average hourly rate is $95 an hour so I'd be close if I chose to only work 40h a week M-F.

May I ask how many patients are you seeing per hour?
