What is a Nurses Salary?

Answer:
Nursing salaries can vary quite a lot from region to region

and in different medical specialties. The average yearly salary for staff RNs (registered nurses) is $41,642, and for RNs in general, the average is approximately $45,000 per year.

Half of the registered nurses in the United States make between $38,792 and $44,869 a year. Nurses in larger hospitals tend to make more than nurses in smaller hospitals, and those in large cities make much more than their counterparts in less populated areas. Many experts in the field predict a shortage of nurses in the next decade or so, as many nurses begin to retire. This may push salaries up, since there will be many more vacancies than usual.
