    I live on the gulf coast and the RN's here start off at around 20 right out of school. I'm not sure about LPN's though. It will prob vary a little at each place but thats the norm.

    Not a lot... CNAs in northern states make more than some starting RNs. It also HIGHLY depends on where you work (hospital, LTC, Dr. Office).

    At the hospital I worked at, 5 years ago (also on Gulf Coast), LPNs started at $11.50, RNs started out at $17. It has gotten a little better, but NOT nearly as high as salary.com says... UNLESS you go agency.

    In the Jackson & Meridian area new graduate RNs start out at around $18.50-$20/ hour base pay in the hospital area. And also depending on if you have a bachelors or any certifications such as ACLS or PALS
