Stay in NY. Fl does not treat their nurses well

Also unions have demanded that our hospital pay 18 credits a year for RN education. I have my BSN...thanks to my UNION. Not all unions are the same. The best Unions are NYSNA and 1199. Get informed people.

You are the reason why RNs are underpaid. Unions have allowed me to get paid 900000/year after 12 years of exp. In NYC. hospitals in NYC that are not unionized pay their RNs far less. Unions demand safe staffing and safe nurse-patient ratio. I am ...

I know that as a NYC RN i get paid more money...my cost of living is almost similar then yours. (I rent, I have car, I pay taxes etc...) i lived in FL for 8 years prior to moving to NYC...I hope to move back to FL but it frustrates me. I just don't...

Well, that is your experience. I lived in FL for 7 years, then NYC for 8 years...my experience was different...enjoy your house :)

Actually, I spoke to nurse recruiter from both GA and FL and it appears that you would make more money in GA. I have alot of RN friends who have left FL for GA.

that is soooo loww. I just cannot comprehend it

It still does not add up. I live in Queens, my rent is similar than if I lived in FL, my car is paid for etc...I just think that FL nurses are getting paid wayyyyy too low.

that is truly unfortunate:mad:

HI, I AM LOOKING TO MOVE IN THE FALL, I SPOKE TO A NURSE RECRUITER ABOUT A POSSIBLE EMPLOYMENT THERE, BUT THEY ONLY TELL U NICE THINGS. HOW IS WORKING THERE? DO THEY HELP PAY FOR UNIVERSITY IF YOU WANT TO FURTHER YOUR CARRER? DO THEY CHART ON COMPU...

Hi, I Am A Registered Nurse, I Found Out Today That I Am Pregnant (our First)! My Ob/gyn Is Affiliated With Long Island Jewish Hospital...i Need Some Feedback. Which Hospital Do You Suggest And Why? Thanks

I live in NYC, the cost of living is high depending where you live in NYC...i live 30 minutes away from manhattan, i have bills to pay...and still manage to save a good amount of money every paycheck...

that's quite low! NYC new grads make 60k! There are more taxes in NYC, but you still come home with more money...I know because I lived in Florida.

I AM JUST WONDERING IF THE STAFFING IS GOOD AT EMORY. ALSO, IN NYC I AM BEING TAXED 3X EVERY PAYCHECKS BECAUSE I WORK IN MANHATTAN. IF YOU GET PAID 25$/HR IN GEORGIA, WHAT IS YOUR NET PAY...WHY OR WITHOUT 401K,MEDICAL, DENTAL? I NEED TO GET AN ID...

Well on my unit if we receive a patient after 6pm, the next shift must admit them. I think that it is the reasonable thing to do. Some units are crazy...trust me you need to find a unit that truly suits you...DO NOT SETTLE! :nono:
