2019 Nursing Salary Survey

In February 2018, almost 17,000 members and readers in the United States and Canada holding 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 2019 Salary Survey and we hope you will participate.

 This survey is currently closed. 

Participate In Our Nursing Salary Survey

The survey will only take 5 minutes to complete.

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 may impact retention rates even more. Work environment, safe nurse-patient staffing ratios, and job satisfaction may be 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. In 2018 we obtained detailed information about nurse/patient staffing ratios. This year, in addition to obtaining salary data, we are again seeking information about nurse/patient staffing ratios. Have they improved, gotten worse, or remained the same as last year? We are also going to look at career satisfaction as well as job satisfaction. How have the changes over the years affected your outlook on the Nursing profession now and in years to come? Your feedback is important.

Join thousands of nurses who will be providing updated information about salaries, staffing ratios, and career and job satisfaction. Share this survey with all the nurses in your network. The more participants we have, the louder our voice.

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.WE WANT YOUR INPUT!

The survey will be open for 3 or 4 weeks so people can participate and share their information. After the survey is closed, it will take a few weeks to analyze the data. The results will be rolled out via articles addressing various aspects of the data.

While you are waiting for the 2019 results, you can view the 2018 results.

☺️ I’m so glad. And thank you!

It is still not enough compare to the work we do and the liability risk.

This survey has some problems with it - it asks "When do you plan to leave the nursing workforce" - I don't. The only option for me is 16+ years but that's not really answering the question - I'm hoping to stay in the workforce. It then asks why I'm planning on leaving - again, I'm not. I selected retirement - but I'm not planning on retiring for many, many years. Also, there were many questions that didn't have appropriate options for those working in ambulatory care or NPs. It says what is my job title - and I had to select "Other." I would imagine that outpatient/ambulatory primary care clinic NPs and RNs would have a hard to time answering some questions on this survey.
