Every person in my wife's extended family (gen X and millennial) came to or is trying to come to the US to be a nurse.
I tell them they have to go back, but they are pretty set on becoming nurses. That said every Filipino nurse I've had has been pretty great. |

PA / NP has nothing to do with a regular nurse. |

Date: September 24th, 2018 5:50 PM Author: stimulating jewess feces tons of people work jobs that don't offer professional advancement. that said, these people can end up in admin jobs within the medical field.

Date: September 24th, 2018 5:48 PM Author: Coral indian lodge gay wizard Top nurses in a real hospital make 70-90 years in but I'm sure there are exceptions making above six figure. Physicians assistants make the same but many more making low, low-six figures with right specialty.
There are also a ton of nurses making $18/hour at nursing homes and other bullshit nursing jobs where they just change bedpans. |

Date: September 24th, 2018 5:54 PM Author: Awkward Frozen Ladyboy Highly variable depending on practice setting, location, etc.
Major metro areas on the coasts like NYC/Boston/LA/SF starting RN salaries can range from $65-$85k in a hospital setting. If you work nights and overtime with some seniority you can make $100k. Nursing managers can make $150k at some places. If you want earn more than that you will have to make the move to hospital administration.
Places in the South and Midwest you will make less... it would be unusual for a standard RN to make over $85-$90k at the top end.
NP and PA compensation is even more varied, in some institutions RNs can earn more because those positions are union whereas NP and PA positions are generally not.
