Salary info help needed

Hi, everybody,

I am considering a temporary school nursing position in a school/day treatment program for seriously mentally ill children. Can anyone give me any guidance about what the salary should be, whether it's hourly, daily, weekly? Thanks a lot.

What city ? What state? RN? BSN? Does that state require certification?

New York...Westchester County in a non-profit day program. Yes, RN. I don't need additional certification, at least for the temp position.

It's really hard for us to give advice for a position like that. They could be offering anything from $10/hr up to a really nice salary. Unless someone from here is familiar with where you are applying, you will really need to find out from the employer.

thanks for taking the time to help, anyway. I really appreciate it.

It would likely be less than the going rate in acute care.

Thanks--I actually got the offer today. Not bad--not great--about 25% less than I had hoped, but I'll take it!

Congratulations!!!

Go to Salary.com It's free, you type in where you want to work and what type of degree you want, it will give you a very accurate report. Since you posted to my thread after you got your job, I'm wondering how you like it?

It's a wonderful job. I really enjoy the work, and the children are incredible. I smile all day. It's busy all day, and it's always something different. Unfortunately, it's temporary. However...I got another offer today, and it's permanent! Yay! A job, a real job, and it only took me a year after graduating to get one. It's in a large medical practice in my area. Yippee!

good for you!!!!!!!!:yeah:

Awesome, good luck!!
