Nurses pay for a newly qualified (RN) in the USA?
Hi, today in the UK, it was announced that nurses have accepted a pay increase of 8% over 3 years. Currently, (before this pay increase) after passing a Diploma/Degree, a new RN in the UK makes £19,683 p/a, or $38,761. Is this similar pay for a newly qualified (RN) nurse in the USA? Thank you. http://uk.news.yahoo.com/itn/20080606/tuk-nurses-accept-8-pay-deal-dba1618.html Inner City London is: $45,590 to $50,140 (Only London, no other City in UK).

There is a huge variance of pay for RNs in the US depending on where in the country, state you live and work. You can look it up on yahoo jobs. Just fill out like you are searching for that job and it will give you an option to check out the pay in that area.

New grad RN's get paid depending on where you live - I live in NY. If I wanted to drive an hour into NYC I would make $70,000, but I'm staying at a local community hospital so I won't have to commute and I'll be making $60K. So pay for RNs varies from $45K all the way up to $75K for a new grad with no experience. RNs who have been working for a long time at the same hospital frequently make over $100K with overtime
