About how much does an average nurse make?
831868
On the average, approximately $23.00 per hour.  A lot has to do with the area you are located in and if it is in a hospital setting.  I hope that this helps you!

It varies from state to state and province to province.  It depends on where they work, and whether they are in private practice or in a government job or working for a corporation or clinic.  The range could be quite wide - probsably from a low of about $50,000 to a high of $120,000 or more a year.  I expect a good private practice would pay the most.\n\nI hope this helps.

hospital nurses make more then school nurses, hospice, and retirement homes. As for the unit, I don't think one makes more then the other. Hawaii has high salaries, and any city.

If you are going to nursing school, it would make perfect since, to me anyway, to take the 8 week program and become a certified nurses aide.  I know two of the girls that I went to college with did this while waiting to be accepted into the actual program, and they now work at a hospital at Nashville making $35 an hour. Let me give you a piece of advice:  Do what your heart tells you, go for your dreams, they can't come true if you don't chase them! Also if you need some help deciding, say a pray before you go to sleep, guarantee in the morning you will have your answer.  Good Luck!!

You might want to check out volunteer opportunities at your local nursing homes, or hospitals. The Nursing Assistant programs are a great way to enter the nursing field. Training time ranges from 2 weeks full time to about 8 weeks part time. On average about 120 hours. Starting pay ranges from $8.00 to about $13.00 in many states after training. \n\nCulturally competent , caring "nursing Student" seeks a challenging position with a progressive health care facility where my dedication to patients can be utilized. \n\nTry this one on .

I did a report a little over a year ago and found the average income is $11.00 per person.  I think now it's more like $12.00 per hour.\n\nI think $18/hour is pretty good, but it also depends on what type of work you are doing.  Did you go to college?  Are you doing something that is dangerous to your health or can have long term repricussions.\n\nI think you will be happy when you see your paycheck though.  I put a few resources below that you can see the charts of yearly salaries.

My wife is an RN and has been for twelve years.  She makes about $4500 a month, but she only works part time.  Full-time nurses in California can make about $90,000-$110,000 depending on location (Newborn, L & D, Emergency, Neo-Natal)\n\nIf you are just starting hang in there.  The classes are tough but it is worth it.  Great pay, good hours, 12-hour shifts at some hospitals, and great benefits.

As a waitress I ranged from $5.90/hr to $7.00/hr\nIn the retail industry now I started at $7.00/hr and am now at $10.00/hr, but that's for an assistant mgr position so it's pretty crappy too!(Canadian employed)

It really depends on how long you have been in the career, and what background you have.\nThey can make from $12 on up to an average of $16.  Some of the long term employees make more than $25 - 30 an hour.

My roommate is a nurse here in SF and gets paid $50/hour w/o benefits. With benefits you get less. You can also work overtime. So annually you could make $100,000.

there is a huge need for nursing right now, and will be for years and years as the baby boomers begin to get older and require more healthcare.\n\nvisiting nurses make quite a lot of money and are usually able to set their own hours.\n\nhowever... you really may want to consider going straight for the RN... LPNs are treated really bad by doctors and RNs, and are a lot of times regarded as simply CNA's who can pass medicine. They are not allowed to make important decisions (i.e. sending a nursing home patient to the hospital) without consulting an RN or doctor) plus the pay is a lot better and isn't too much more schooling... you still have to take your written boards and clinical exams. you should really go all the way if your thinking of starting out. i know lots of LPN's who are trying to get their RN but it makes it difficult for them to go back to school while working, and the subject content is harder when they have experience that is working against what the teachers want to hear.\n\nif you are young and have the time and money to invest into it, go for the RN.\n\nnursing is very rewarding and honest work. and it is a field that is currently in deficit and is only going to grow. a lot of places (especially nursing homes) will pay for your education if you agree to work for them for i think three years after you graduate. you can work as an aide while you are in school (you have to do the aidework before you can become a nurse anyway)\n\n\n\nammendment: i think LPN starting pay is around $15 an hour... a friend of mine was an LPN at a private nursing home, and since hospice is a non-profit place they probably pay people a little less, but since most of it is traveling it may be more.. plan between 15-20 an hour\n\nRNs are around $25 an hour\n\ngood luck!

As a nurse - you should be making good money. Maybe you need to re-evaluate how you spend money instead of making more. Learn to budget.

I worked for an administrator and she made TONS of money. However, the nurses have more control over the immediate care of the patients. Unfortunately, they are overworked so the care may not be as good as they would like it to be.

I'm not sure exactly what a nutritionist is, but I'm a nurse and the hospital I work at has Dieticians (which I think may be similar) and they make approximately $30,000 a year...

with any doctor's degree, one would need a pre-med degree ( biology), 4 years of medical school, and 4 years of residency after that. Tha average salary is $165,000 a year; range from $110,000-$210,000 a year. I haven't heard of any outstanding schools for ob/gyn, but you can always try a search in your state for some results(?). hope this helps!
