How much does a nurse earn per week/year? |
Around how much money would a nurse earn in Australia?...and how much study is envolved? (how many years)...i want to get into a good paying job so i can move out of home. Im 20 yrs old and still living with my parents...i currently earn only $320 a week at a reception job and cant afford to move out... I wouldnt mind getting into being a mid-wife (delivering babies) but i have heard that you have to become a nurse first...does either job pay well? around how much money? I work for a company in the US that staffs hospitals with medical professionals- we pay our nurses anywhere from 23-35 dollars per hour (I'm told that's on the low end of things). My company requires a college degree (Bachelors of Science) in Nursing (RN), or BSN- If you have a Masters degree we pay even more. It takes a minimum of 4 years to get your RN degree in the US- Midwives are paid slightly less than Nurses but have more specialized training as they have to be certified as a Midwife as well as have a Nursing degree ( I know... it doesn't make sense).... I hope that helps (it's late... sorry if that's somewhat vague)- I wish I could say it's the same the world around but your best bet would be to call up a temporary staffing agency that works with nurses and medical professionals and find out what their requirements are for employment. If a 4 year degree feels like more than you can handle right now you can also become a certified nursing assistant (CNA), Radiology technician, pharmacy technician, x-ray tech etc with only 2 years of school at what we call a community college (basically just a dumb way of saying 2 year college)- They get paid slightly less but it's probably more than what you're making now. Best wishes to you! 5 bucks Registered nurses who work full-time can earn anywhere from $35,000 to $65,000 a year. However, they can make even more by doing overtime work. Nurses also receive pay for being "on-call," which means they are ready to go to work on a moment's notice if needed. Nurses with additional training, or who work as managers or administrators, may make as much as $75,000 a year. Nurses who do part-time or casual work earn about $17 to $30 an hour, and the amount they make in a year depends on the number of hours they work. Full-time and part-time nurses receive benefits such as dental coverage, paid vacations, and paid sick days. Nurses who do casual work do not usually receive benefits. People in this profession are often represented by nurses鈥?unions. This means that their salary rates and benefits are negotiated on their behalf by union representatives. Unionized nurses often earn higher wages than those who do not belong to unions. Experts say that because many nurses are close to retirement, we will face a nursing shortage in the near future. This means that there should be many opportunities for nurses who are beginning their careers. In addition, there will be new opportunities for nurses in areas such as elderly care and health promotion. www.careercruising.com no idea about Australia. In the US pay can vary greatly depending on specialty and whether the person is staff or working Agency. I know Agency RNs that make $40+ hour easy. Lot of variables. |
