New York, California, and Florida are the highest in demand, varying from about $30-$50 per hour depending on if you are staff, charge, or management. Experience also matters quite a bit Also shift differentials. Ok, the above answer is not true. As an RN in Florida I can say that RN's starting salary is between $21-$24 per hour with an average of 1 dollar pay increases per hour per year, not to mention this is before taxes are taken out. RN's are in demand in Florida, but they are not as well compensated as is rumored. In California where the cost of living is very high as with New York, and the population density is also high pay scales between $25-$32 per hour are feasible. But, even in these higher paying cities the cost of living will drain your pocket book, so ask yourself twice if it is worth it. In Florida, however, though RN demand still is high, the pay scale for nurses has yet to be pushed up to the $30 per hour average standard. MSN's in Florida working in hospitals stand to make only about $34-$42 per hour for their extra 3 years post BSN training. Florida is ridiculous and new nurses need to boycott the state until the pay goes up. Florida is a cheapo state for RN's, so watch out. With overtime, I made $100,357 in 2007. Averaging around 48 hours per week. This is in South Carolina with no benefits.
Salaries for nurses in Florida (or anywhere in the USA) are payed by the hour not on a per year basis. Starting salaries for RN's are between $19 to $24 dollars per hour depending on where you work (hospital, nursing home, doctors office, home care, ect.) and what you specialty is. Depending on the policy of your employer overtime may be counted as time and a half for anything over 40hours/week. Hospitals and critical care pays the most. Each year a nurse has been working a pay increase of about one dollar per hour is standard. You may ask for a raise after six months of being on the job.
To answer your question, it depends on where the RN resides. Here in the small city in Florida where I live, an RN makes at least $32.00 per hour, IF she works at one of the local hospitals. Depending upon the shift an RN has at that hospital, the pay scale can go up to over $45.00 per hour. BUT, their pay is not generally based on a 40 hour week. Rn's working in a private practice situation make much less.
I have a cousin who has a PhD in nursing and she works in another city (a very BIG city) in Florida as a "freelance" medical expert, i.e.: she advises on legal cases for several prominent law firms. She usually makes between $250,000.00 to $300,000.00 annually. She is the not, by any means, in the normal pay scale. She simply "lucked-out" by knowing the right people.
