Hi Guys I put up a thread a couple weeks ago asking what the LPN pay was in N.O. and on the north shore area around hammond, convington, etc. No replies? Help a fellow nurse out. Probably a good chance I will move down there and need to know the pay scale for LTC, Hospitals, etc. PLEASE HELP ME OUT! Is it that bad for LPN's down there that no one wants to tell me what the pay is down there? Thanks Guys for any info!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks guys for all your help! I am thinking of starting off in LTC for about a year. Paying off student loans of course. Then looking at going for the RN. I am still curious about the pay in that area? Colorado is at $19.00 to $22.00 for LPN's in LTC here. Thanks again for the advice, looking to take a look see here next month.

Hey guys I got a week left in my LPN program. Made it! Go to www.joanadam.com this site helped me out alot. It was made by a former LPN student. Good Luck you'll make it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Guys and girls I am finishing up a LPN program at Concorde in Colorado right now. I graduate next week and then take the NCLEX PN soon. I am going to move to the DFW area and was wondering what the pay was like around there. And if anyone had any advice on where to buy a home for about 150 to 170.000.00 with at least five acres in a decent neighborhood. I am looking at the northeast side 20 miles outside of dallas. Or would fort worth be better home and job wise? any help is appreciated.

I grew up in Hawaii and like the other post said 19.00hr and a home in a kind of decent neighborhood is hovering around 500.000.00. Lot of crime and drugs in Hawaii, the people have to make money somehow. Would not move back there, only if I hit the lotto! I live in Colorado now and have heard of lpn's making up to 22.00hr in ltc's. The hospitals that do hire lpn's about 14.00 to 17.00 to start, which sucks. But the home prices in Colorado have been going up every year. My hole in the wall 2000 sq ft 4bdrm 3 bth home is going for 300.000 right now. I plan on moving down to dallas though and the pay down there is not bad and u can still get a home out of town for 150.000 with acreage.
