I do Case Management now-- I am an RN. I've done Medical, Surgical, Radiology, Short Stay in hospitals and Home Health and Nursing Homes.
Now I work 5 days/40 hours a week. Most of the 'floor' nurses work 12 hour shifts. I work 8 hours, actually 8-1/2 with 1/2 hour for lunch.
Over $70,000 per year, but that is with 39 years of experience.
Nurses should wake up to the power they hold. There is such a shortage. It is because they are helpers, they will not stand up for themselves. I think strikes don't help, but I do think nurses have far more power than they realize.

initially. a LPN isn't the equal as a RN. Unless the principles on your state are exceptional so far as I understand, a LPN does no longer get an accomplice's measure. A LPN is a vocational profession that will get a degree (probably eight to ten months coaching) after which sits for the state board to obtain their licensure. A RN then again CAN get a accomplice's measure (two years no longer adding necessities) and take the experiment and paintings as an RN. A BSN (bachelor's measure in nursing) will open the door so that you can paintings in administrative positions. Hope that is helping. I nevertheless you desire to get into the paintings drive instantly and make severe cash, get an accomplice's (RN) and take the experiment. Most hospitals will supply you university compensation for BSN
