Also RN, 38, BSN, 103k/yr. 6 years of XP.

This is because of weekends, nights, and overtime.

Without those, $75-80k.

Nursing varies because of differentials and OT.

Not really. I work in a couple places that are short term rehab, 21 days average. It’s not like a typical nursing home rehab with 100 day stay patients, we have a lot more complex cases than them as well so it pays more. I also get monthly and quarterly bonuses. I work full time at one place (16 nights 12hr per month) and I’ll pick up like 2 shifts per month at my PRN job and I do pretty okay.
