Hello all. just reading different threads and wondering what does the starting salary look like for a grad nurse? i live the in Atlanta area so any ball park figure will do. thanks!
I live in one of the larger towns in Kansas. Our town is a college town, so cost of living in this county is one of the highest in the state--nonethless, we are talking about Kansas, folks, so the cost of living is no where near some other places. An apartment is about 300-400 per bedroom. Average price of a home is somewhere in the $180s. New grads at my hospital start out at 20/hr. There is a $3/hour night differential, plus a $2/hr weekend differential. Family insurance through the hospital is about $350/mo, single is somewhere around $150, I think (I'm not single...). Partial tutition reimbursement is possible, it's something like 30% of your tuition. Not as much as some places, but every little bit helps!
