In the 2018 U.S. News 100 Best Jobs Report, Nurse Practitioners ranked #4, Registered Nurses ranked #18, and Nurse Anesthetists #22. Not only are nursing jobs ranked high, but once again for the 16th year, nursing holds the top spot as the most trusted profession in the Gallup Poll. With all this favorable public recognition, are nurses getting paid what they should?

Participate In Our 2018 allnurses Nursing Salary Survey
In February 2017, more than 18,000 nurses in the U.S. and Canada who have an active nursing license participated in our allnurses online salary survey. The data was shared with readers via several interactive images. The results were surprising to some as they were able to compare not only the salaries across the states and Canada, but also the purchasing power based on cost of living, taxes, etc. It's now time for the 2018 Salary Survey and we hope you will participate.
Salary is a definite factor for those looking for a job. It also plays a big factor in retaining nurses. But there are other factors that impact retention rates even more. Work environment and nurse-patient staffing ratios are more important to the nurse who is trying to decide whether or not to leave.
In the 2017 Salary Survey, in order to look at nursing shortages across the country, we obtained data regarding nurses leaving the workforce: why and when. This year, in addition to obtaining salary data, we are seeking information about nurse/patient staffing ratios. This is your time to speak up.
Join thousands of nurses who will be providing information about staffing ratios. The allnurses team will be going to Washington DC in April to attend the #NursesTakeDC rally. We will take the data you provide through this survey and share it with our country's legislators as they will be voting on proposed legislation to address unsafe staffing. Let your voice be heard!
Your participation in this survey is important. The more questions you answer, the more complete our data will be. This online survey takes about 5 minutes or less to complete. If you hold an active nursing license and live/work in the United States, U.S. territories, or Canadian Provinces, we would like for you to participate in this year's nursing salary survey.
Please answer the questions as they relate to your primary nursing job. If you have more than one nursing job, you may fill out an additional survey using a different IP address.
A great big THANK YOU to the University of Maryland for sponsoring the 2017 Nursing Salary Survey!
WE WANT YOUR INPUT!
All participants who provide their email will be eligible to win a $100 gift card.
