3yr eval due 4 a 7yr RN. What % raise 2 expect?

Did you see the article in this months Nursing 2005 magazine? Although i think most of the salary ranges are a bit inflated it could give you a little idea of what your range "should" be. Good luck, hope ya get a good one.

Depends on where you work. We cap out at a certain time. Sometimes we don't get a raise because of the financial part of the hospital. Everywhere is different.

Here, no matter how well you do your job, they have a figure set for the amount of raise a employee gets. I have gotten wonderful evals and only gotten a 2.5% raise. Other times it has been better but the eval was not glowing. The bottom line is hospital or facility budget and the going rate for where you are.

I've been a RN for 7rs. Work at a LTC for 3. I live in Texas. Was wondering what type of increase I can expect for a raise? Last yr. my Administrator said that it was based on something to do w/medicaid and/or medicare, but I think that was a bunch of bologne. Should I expect a cost of living raise?

Our range is 2-5%. I got a 4% raise this year. I've been there 3 years and a nurse 28 years.

Thanks everyone. That gives me something to work with.
