It’s not always about the amount of the salary! Yes a bedside nurse can make alottttt but you are literally stressed and overworked! I rather have a 9-5 have every weekend off and all holidays off! I rather do my assessments, prescribe medications and not be running a floor for 12 hours!!
I plan on becoming a FNP (Family Nurse Practitioner) and work in outpatient family clinics 9-5 and have weekends off! I feel like it would be a less emotionally demanding job and more of healthy on the mind.
YESSS and some clinics its 9-5 mon-thursday. And fridays you get off earlier. I'm debating whether or not I'll do NP, but even as a nurse you can do that.
@@augustvirgo26 Tbh I live in Florida and I’m considering starting my own practice one day in FM. In Florida you only need 3k-5k of supervision hours from a physician. This always have been a dream of mines and God willing it will be a reality.
NP residency for 1 year which was 70K, a huge sacrifice as I was an RN for nearly 20 years and was earning over 100K 10 years ago. After NP residency, the initial salary was 120K, and by the end of that year 123K plus, the following year 124K plus, then boom 146K with a potential for 154K plus this year based on a quality project. We have about 320 hours of PTO per year, CME 3K (takes care of DEA, license renewal, etc)+ 40 hours for conferences which can be online or elsewhere. We are salaried, and lunch is as you go-since we work 12-hour shifts. 401K is a 6% company match, Roth 6% company match, and pension per company once you hit 3 years and are considered vested. My NP Psych colleagues and hospitalists are in the 160K to 180K plus range. Forgot to mention life insurance is 2x your pay, medical is free for the employee with $300 for the entire family. We are military so Tricare is still free and get paid extra for not taking medical and dental. Shhh! Don't tell anyone:)) but let them know - God is good:))
I made 111, 000 as a new grad NP and now make 137,000 a year base but with bonuses and other money opportunities throughout the year from my organization, I will make $145,000. Plus I am reimbursed for my licenses, supplies such as stethoscopes and scrubs/shoes if I choose to wear them which I sometimes do and membership on professional organizations. Plus I get 7 weeks vacation and a couple of thousand a year to earn CEs which I sometimes use to take my husband and myself on trips. I would love to make more of course but I certainly make more as an NP than I did as an RN with no shifts/weekends/nights/holidays and much less physically demanding.
All NPs should be starting at 150K. I could argue they bring in more revenue than CRNAs, especially in rural areas. Administration loves to keep that money for non-clinical people in the C-Suite.
Thank you for your transparency! We need to advocate for ourselves as Nurse Practitioners. A big thank you too to Monica the NP! She's the Goat of negotiations! This gives me confidence to negotiate better at my next NP job.
I’m a fellow WHNP and this information will help a lot NPs entering the field and those looking to switch jobs. When I started searching for jobs, most of the the NPs I knew were Family and I didn’t know anyone with my specialty. Some think that discussing salaries is taboo, but how else will NPs start getting paid their worth if we don’t discuss it? Keep sharing and helping others. I think we work in the same city 💕
I live in Atlanta and just got accepted into FNP program at Georgia State so I’ve been researching scope of practice laws and salary etc; I’ve been having a hard time after Covid because as a travel nurse I averaged 160k a year for 2 years straight. Now as a local travel nurse I make about $45-$55 an hour working PRN jobs and I’ve been learning how to make “regular” money again . Bedside nursing is exhausting and I was assaulted by a patient last week I said this is why I am done . So as I take my journey to NP I’m needing to learn about how to negotiate my salary. Thank you so much for the transparency and the information you are very beautiful and we need more black NPs in women’s health to advocate for us. Thank you again.
love your transparency.. a lot of people goes into nursing.. bc they hear them numbers... but they dont understand all of the bs that comes with them numbers. I've been hearing a lot about nursing burnout.. esp with Covid exacerbating the burnout.
A great video Queen is so young and smart. I'm not a nurse practitioner. I'm a stay-at-home mom but you go get that bag. I'm proud of u girl. You broke it down
I’m happy for you. Something that a lot of us NPs, especially Family NPs are doing is opening their own practice with a covering physician. The physician just has to cover the practice and you include him or her on what your practice brings in. Many NPs are starting their own businesses. One thing that is big here in Michigan is infusion clinics and weight loss clinics, therefore you can set your own rate; income. No longer are nurses/NPs working for someone else.
I just started my 1st NP job and the starting salary is $115,000 ($55.98 per/hr). Also, 60% student loan forgiveness if I work at my current job 2 years and 80% if I work 3 years.
Thank you 🙏🏾 for this video as a black man it was informative and I appreciate you telling our sisters to go get that bag and negotiate. I took notes !
Congratulations Sis! Kudos on achieving your NP. As a homecare rn with previous military medical background and over ten years experience in nursing. I average about 145K yearly after taxes but I am considering NP in my field. Thanks for breaking everything down so well.❤
I work in home care as well and would make the same or possibly less as an NP. I’m choosing to do NP because I’m home are I have to work 7 days per week and long hours to get the hood money.
@@thejojoandsissyshow I agree, working as an NP in a facility or acute care settings is almost always less than in homecare. I know practical nurses who make rn pay because they're in homecare.
I work at a staffing agency and if we hire a RN, and the RN stays with the company for 1 year. The company makes $200,000. So I can only imagine what an NP would make.
Congratulations.... i dont know how I came across your video. I was looking at someone that attends the same nursing school as me. Im glad I saw your video. I hate when people talk so negative like they know what was coming out of your pocket before you became an NP. Not only that nursing school is hard. Im currently getting my BSN. My goal is to become a forensics nurse and my doctorate. You got this.
I teach and make over 125k but took years to get to that...20yrs...so its great money 💵 they make especially starting out but both professions should be payed more. Things are expensive out here...
Wow last year as an RN I made 105,000 as a psych RN I am currently in school to get my psych np- seeing these numbers is a little discouraging but I am hopeful because psych nursing is dangerous- I think having a business of some sort is the best way to go. Thank you for the transparency ❤
I passed my pmhnp last December and just got a first job offer here in San Diego. There were two job offers: 1. Outpatient psych clinic (10h shift x 4 days a week): $78/h 2. Outpatient psych clinic and mobile psych service (8h shift x 5 days a week): $94/h Obviously for the higher salary reason, I took option 2 as my first pmhnp job❤
I’m not a NP but as new graduate with an Associates Degree in Cardiovascular Technology, here in Maryland, minimum hourly rate is $37 and some change base pay . I’m the DMV area starting minimum is $47-$50 and some change as a new graduate. By the time I graduate next year May 2024 minimum should be $39 and some change. So I am looking for my minimum to be $45 due to my previous medical background and I’ll just be changing departments so they would owe me my regular annual raise. So I will ask for $50 and hope at the end of the day I can get $45/hr as a new graduate Cardiovascular Technologist in Maryland!
It called inflation. The dollar loosing its values and it continues to lose the next decade in the high speed. At rhe end of the day do you have money in your saving account after you pay everything thst means your student load, cradit card in full pay, car, insurance. 401k, housing. Food, clothing. Phone, internet etc I can name it more.ARE YOU IN DEBT??? Delusional
Thanks for sharing, Ashley! Thanks for the tips. However, there’s one thing that I would like to point out: It doesn’t look like you’re putting nearly enough money in your 401K. It might be a good way for you to reduce your taxes. If your company offers a Roth 401k, even better. But you won’t get the tax benefits now; at withdrawal time, though, you won’t be taxed. I hope that you’re at least fully funding your Roth IRA or that you have some real estate investments or preferably both.
Hi thank you so much for your video. I have been an RN for 2 years now, before that I was an LPN for 8 years. I went back to school for my BSN and I wanted to stop there. But I think I am mentally tired of bed side care and I definitely want to be an NP now. I was thinking about psych because I heard it offers a lot of flexibility but I don't like it really. I was thinking about Geriatrics instead.
I would like to continue my scholastic professional growth in healthcare too but honey these things called student loans not about to kill me !!!! I paid the last 2 degrees I earned out of my pocket and to definitely took me longer .... buuuuut don't come at me about the reimbursement from the employer bcz the operative word is " 🗣️ REIMBURSEMENT " sooooo the way the economy is set up chiiiilllleeee issa whole deterrent !
Geri psych is nothing to play with. 2 1/2 years bed side. Three-12’s. Pay was great, but it was emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually taxing. You come across so many different spirits. I was almost burned out after that. I took a $10 pay cut for peace of mind.
Damn. I’m a Dental Hygienist making $45hr. Didn’t know I made just as much as a base NP . I also registered for RN school. I grad 2/25. My plan is to not work full time either one but to work enough to live a great life spiritually and frugally. I love the ideal of temp contracts and the possibility to do some overtime.
Yes girl, their are associates degrees in the medical field that actually make money like your position, the imaging department’s such as X-ray, CT, MRI, and all the other modalities, and even what I’m going for which is cardiovascular technology. You can graduate with little to no debt easily with a good paying associate degree. So no need to go to school and work on experience for years when you can practically make good income off the back and get the experience and make more than a graduate degree person. Team Technologist and Associate Degree here!!!
Where do you live? I make 55/hour as an RDH- 80k a year, but the NP in my area are killing it making 140k a year. Lmao the way all RDH are switching to nursing. I graduate 2 years too:)
@@dpaper7962i agree with you that there are associates that earn a good living, however to make it into the six figures without busting your tush 6 days a week- its graduate level for healthcare providers. NP in NYC are earning an amazing living working only 3 days a week
Being a nurse is a good career what I hate is those who are nurses talk bad like quit your job and shut up nurses are needed and it’s not for mean spirited people and it’s a job for kind hearted people
lol... I will start listening to them when they quit under 2--3 yrs but you see most of them average 20-30 years and come up with the BS. No profession is a bed of roses unless you are working for yourself. It is left for you to make as much as you can out of it and leave the profession
I’m not a nurse but glad you made this video. Very helpful tips, you mentioned things I didn’t even think of. I’m shocked they only offered you 30 days holiday as a nurse.
I make more than this as a regular nurse with 13 years experience and working 1 job. I made $119,000 last year. Tracking for $125,000 to $130,000 this year. I work 1 or 2 extra 12 hour shifts in a 2 week period. Normally work 84-96 hours in 2 weeks.
I wish I could work 84plus in 2 weeks, we as truckers work 70hrs in one week... I live to see people working less and still making good money. Keep it up 💪🏾👍🏾
I just happen to see this video! I am not in this field but I have family members in the medical field,I feel this is so I formative I pray people will listen And learn from these series!
I’ve been an FNP for almost one year now and I don’t know if all the work that goes into it is actually worth it. So far not a great return on investment……
@ Ashley Audacious..Soooooo proud of you and excellent that you asked for what you wanted. I keep thinking about going back...I'm 50 plus but I did begin studying longing ago when I 1st began college then life happened. I still read up on different things and watch related vids. Love your transparency.....what state do you practice in?
I work as an attendant in a casino in Vegas. I have 4 yr degree and I just made $130,000 last year and some of my coworkers didn’t even finish high school and we all make the same. Some of us make more because they like to work overtime when busy.
I guess it depends on the state. In NY Long Island my niece was offered $99,500 as a RN and less than 2 yrs she is receiving $123,000. She is in school know to be a DNP🦋
i have heard the same. each has its pros and cons. I feel like bedside nursing is more physically demanding and being an NP is more psychologically/mentally demanding. it’s like you gotta pick your poison. the trade off with being an NP vs working bedside is not having to work weekends, holidays, not having to go in when it’s snowing because clinic is closed and then with bedside nursing, you only work 3 days/week vs being at work 5 days/week

@@ashley_audacious I completely agree. It was great seeing you offer insight on how to put yourself in a better position professionally. I shared this video with a new grad that was very thankful!
this is me. I work as an RN (for now) and NP 1day a week. Did it for a bonus an agency was offering (75k for 15 months contract). Not gonna lie though, hospital benefits are better than the office so after the contract, i plan on working as an RN part time to keep the insurance and benefits. NP job is way less stressful and physically demanding. but you can make bank with OT pay as a RN.
Thank you for being truthful. It’s some crazy RN woman claiming to make this type of money part time. Telling people she works 3 days a week, but RNs typically work 3 days a week. Glad you’re not one of those click bait people out to make a check any means.
@@machsimillian14 her alleged check and just so you know, people aren't grossing 4k and netting 3.5k. That's 🧢 unless you want tax problems. Also I'm on concert with several RNs and they don't make 100k. You can talk about the travel but still mostly 🧢
@@champfisk5613 she was grossing 4800, and netting 3500 something...that's actually not far from the norm, especially if she's maxing out contributions. Did you bother to watch any of her other videos? There's literally no reason for her to lie.
@@machsimillian14 maxing out contributions? I know now you know Nothing about this profession. The only nurse making that type of money is a contract traveler with No benefits....get cha weight up
I am scared of writing papers and wasn’t top in my class for BSN. I had two small kids and was in ROTC during this time. Any advice for me? By the way, I’m so proud of you!! Gorgeous and successful!
my advice is just to apply. I wasn’t top in my BSN class either. I only remember writing papers for 1-2 of my classes in my NP program. if you have trouble writing papers, there are so many resources on youtube and online and even your NP school should have resources to help you 🤍
Crazy. I'm an lvn and my salary is 145k. I work for cooperate tho. I was making 105k and max i can make is 125k as an lvn health services director for an assisted living then they promote me to regional nurse pay range from 130-160k
❤❤ thank you so much for the transparency and information it’s very helpful as someone heading back to NP school and even though people say you can make that at bedside it’s the NP lifestyle that I’m after as well as additional autonomy and PTO congrats 🎊 on all of you achievements. After being in the field for sometime now would you still specialize as a WHNP or choose FNP but work in the specialty?
I work as a pulmonary and critical care NP and my neighbors’ kids make more money than me, doing accessories and toys review on TH-cam and other social media platforms at the comfort of their home
Hi! I love your videos. What WH resources would you recommend to use in practice that helped you? Like any specific sites or textbooks, maybe even phone apps?
Ok so from looking at those check stubs all the extra money you negotiated for in pay went to taxes and deductions. There was only $100 difference in what went in your wallet.
If you are black person or other nationality and work nurse practitioner and work South they pay you under budget but if you are black person and other nationality and you in north they pay you $175.000 that’s the fact
As a RN working in Alabama (and soon to be, fingers crossed, an NP), I currently make $52.50 an hour. What amount of salary would I be able to negotiate seeing that some NP positions start off at my current salary?
How do you suggest negotiating a higher pay in a small city that is very over saturated ?? I’m wanting to go back to school but hearing the pay of local NP’s is disheartening. They are barely making more than me as an RN of 3 years. We have a very large university with a med school & teaching hospital which may have to do with it.
Monica the NP is giving a 1.5 hour presentation at a conference in florida, you can attend it virtually for $50 which is a steal. here is the link npcouncilpbc.enpnetwork.com/nurse-practitioner-events/140855-npcpbc-annual-conference-legal-lessons-developing-your-brand?fbclid=PAAaYad-A0XoynUmXtgkLl9rWsyGSVmUrWAB3ozhIu_f4hyE0A3tf9LKeg0z8_aem_AX7h0DO07e60UdOc9AEH7Is-ljLOYQnOKrlybgIXhhPs5pJdjILba9oo8F19Du6kUp8%23%21registration#!registration
I’m sorry; As a traveler; You can make double that and then some; 3x12hr shifts…Travel sweetie and go see the world; Just came home from San Diego; Feels like a vacation every time!!!
Thank you for that breakdown. I am in my 4th semester of NP school and I believe that I would like a 8-5? 9-5? We will see, as a lot of the urgent care places are 12 hours where I live.

Hi thank you so much for your video. I have been an RN for 2 years now, before that I was an LPN for 8 years. I went back to school for my BSN and I wanted to stop there. But I think I am mentally tired of bed side care and I definitely want to be an NP now. I was thinking about psych because I heard it offers a lot of flexibility but I don't like it really. I was thinking about Geriatrics instead.
Try home health.
I would like to continue my scholastic professional growth in healthcare too but honey these things called student loans not about to kill me !!!! I paid the last 2 degrees I earned out of my pocket and to definitely took me longer .... buuuuut don't come at me about the reimbursement from the employer bcz the operative word is " 🗣️ REIMBURSEMENT " sooooo the way the economy is set up chiiiilllleeee issa whole deterrent !
Geri psych is nothing to play with. 2 1/2 years bed side. Three-12’s. Pay was great, but it was emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually taxing. You come across so many different spirits. I was almost burned out after that. I took a $10 pay cut for peace of mind.
Wow very informative, your communication skills are impeccable. I am not in the medical field but this was so interesting. Thank you ❤
Honestly, idk why this popped up on my recommendation because I’m not a nurse nor practitioner but this video was entertaining 👏 😊
I was looking for weight loss videos and stumbled on your video. I am currently in school for psych NP. Thank you for sharing these helpful tips.
Why psych?
Damn. I’m a Dental Hygienist making $45hr. Didn’t know I made just as much as a base NP . I also registered for RN school. I grad 2/25. My plan is to not work full time either one but to work enough to live a great life spiritually and frugally. I love the ideal of temp contracts and the possibility to do some overtime.
It depends on your location, I believe she said she’s in TN so that’s probably why her salary was what it was
Yes girl, their are associates degrees in the medical field that actually make money like your position, the imaging department’s such as X-ray, CT, MRI, and all the other modalities, and even what I’m going for which is cardiovascular technology. You can graduate with little to no debt easily with a good paying associate degree. So no need to go to school and work on experience for years when you can practically make good income off the back and get the experience and make more than a graduate degree person. Team Technologist and Associate Degree here!!!
You're winning at life
Where do you live? I make 55/hour as an RDH- 80k a year, but the NP in my area are killing it making 140k a year. Lmao the way all RDH are switching to nursing. I graduate 2 years too:)
@@dpaper7962i agree with you that there are associates that earn a good living, however to make it into the six figures without busting your tush 6 days a week- its graduate level for healthcare providers. NP in NYC are earning an amazing living working only 3 days a week
Being a nurse is a good career what I hate is those who are nurses talk bad like quit your job and shut up nurses are needed and it’s not for mean spirited people and it’s a job for kind hearted people
lol... I will start listening to them when they quit under 2--3 yrs but you see most of them average 20-30 years and come up with the BS. No profession is a bed of roses unless you are working for yourself. It is left for you to make as much as you can out of it and leave the profession
I’m really thinking about NP I’m a LPN right now!
Thank you for your honesty and sharing your information
thank you for watching 🤍
I’m not a nurse but glad you made this video. Very helpful tips, you mentioned things I didn’t even think of. I’m shocked they only offered you 30 days holiday as a nurse.
thank you for watching 🤍
I think it’s really awesome and helpful you are so forward with your paystub. It’s great transparency and to help
You have a voice to be an educator ! Ever thought of being a nursing professor ?!
thank you. I have worked as a clinical instructor/adjunct faculty before and I love it.
Thank you for the transparency, im currently in np school, this is very helpful.
Pharmacist 170k in Philly 18 years of experience
Fellow NP here and new subscriber, thanks for sharing!
Omg I love
I make more than this as a regular nurse with 13 years experience and working 1 job. I made $119,000 last year. Tracking for $125,000 to $130,000 this year. I work 1 or 2 extra 12 hour shifts in a 2 week period. Normally work 84-96 hours in 2 weeks.
I wish I could work 84plus in 2 weeks, we as truckers work 70hrs in one week... I live to see people working less and still making good money. Keep it up 💪🏾👍🏾
I make more than that as a lpn with some ot cause I get paid 60 per hour .
What state and city do you work?
Thank you for your transparency❣
thank you for watching 🤍
Thank you for sharing this. I have contemplated the NP route and your videos have been helpful 💖
thank you for watching 🤍
Im proud of you!
thank you
I just happen to see this video! I am not in this field but I have family members in the medical field,I feel this is so I formative I pray people will listen And learn from these series!
I’ve been an FNP for almost one year now and I don’t know if all the work that goes into it is actually worth it. So far not a great return on investment……
The yearly income of these NP is almost as much as my home.... with this amount of money they're making I could payoff my home in 2-3 years! Wow!
@ Ashley Audacious..Soooooo proud of you and excellent that you asked for what you wanted. I keep thinking about going back...I'm 50 plus but I did begin studying longing ago when I 1st began college then life happened. I still read up on different things and watch related vids. Love your transparency.....what state do you practice in?
I made $130k as a new grad in NJ. For anyone wondering what the range is like. :)
Thanks for the tips about speaking up for yourself.
Love love love this video!!! Thank you for the transparency
Im so intrigued about women’s health.. I will be a WHNP 🙏🏾👏👏
Commenting to show love- keep grinding!
I hear a lot of NPs say once they get into the field they should have just stayed a RN cause one the pay is bout the same, thats all i ever hear
Thank you for this video! I love the transparency! You are very beautiful
thank you 🤍
Thank you for sharing this was very inspirational❤
You are so welcome! 🤍
I work as an attendant in a casino in Vegas. I have 4 yr degree and I just made $130,000 last year and some of my coworkers didn’t even finish high school and we all make the same. Some of us make more because they like to work overtime when busy.
I guess it depends on the state. In NY Long Island my niece was offered $99,500 as a RN and less than 2 yrs she is receiving $123,000. She is in school know to be a DNP🦋
shes doing straight from RN to DNP?
Wow that's a great salary ...wonderful
I heard nursing can be rough in NY, cost of living is high, taxes are higher than a lot of states. Location definitely matter ....
Thanks for this info. Much needed video
Thanks so much Ashley!
you’re welcome. thank you for watching 🤍
The taxes taken are too much. I’m happy for you of getting a better pay raised. How many hours a week do NP normally works?
40 hours
If she has no children they're going to take out what is required
Thanks for your transparency! Great video
Love love the upfront truth❤❤
You a real one for this❤🎉
You go girl! Run those views up 🥳🥳
I’m so glad I ran into this video
I have spoken with several NPs that still work on the floor as an RN because they make more money.
i have heard the same. each has its pros and cons. I feel like bedside nursing is more physically demanding and being an NP is more psychologically/mentally demanding. it’s like you gotta pick your poison. the trade off with being an NP vs working bedside is not having to work weekends, holidays, not having to go in when it’s snowing because clinic is closed and then with bedside nursing, you only work 3 days/week vs being at work 5 days/week

@@ashley_audacious I completely agree. It was great seeing you offer insight on how to put yourself in a better position professionally. I shared this video with a new grad that was very thankful!
I've been hearing that for years but only from RNs but never from fellow NPs, I've never met an NP who said gee. I made more as an RN. Never.
this is me. I work as an RN (for now) and NP 1day a week. Did it for a bonus an agency was offering (75k for 15 months contract). Not gonna lie though, hospital benefits are better than the office so after the contract, i plan on working as an RN part time to keep the insurance and benefits. NP job is way less stressful and physically demanding. but you can make bank with OT pay as a RN.
My lord. Thanks for sharing. I’m trying to into the FNP program
Thank you for sharing, this was helpful to know.
This is so helpful. Thank you :)
Thank you for being truthful. It’s some crazy RN woman claiming to make this type of money part time. Telling people she works 3 days a week, but RNs typically work 3 days a week. Glad you’re not one of those click bait people out to make a check any means.
Are you talking about Tawanda? She posted her check, and talked about the services she does. If you're talking about someone else, then i don't know.
@@machsimillian14 her alleged check and just so you know, people aren't grossing 4k and netting 3.5k. That's 🧢 unless you want tax problems. Also I'm on concert with several RNs and they don't make 100k. You can talk about the travel but still mostly 🧢
@@champfisk5613 she was grossing 4800, and netting 3500 something...that's actually not far from the norm, especially if she's maxing out contributions. Did you bother to watch any of her other videos? There's literally no reason for her to lie.
@@machsimillian14 no, it says 4.1k and that could have been any old stub
@@machsimillian14 maxing out contributions? I know now you know Nothing about this profession. The only nurse making that type of money is a contract traveler with No benefits....get cha weight up
Thank you for so much information. It was very helpful ❤
I am scared of writing papers and wasn’t top in my class for BSN. I had two small kids and was in ROTC during this time. Any advice for me?
By the way, I’m so proud of you!! Gorgeous and successful!
my advice is just to apply. I wasn’t top in my BSN class either. I only remember writing papers for 1-2 of my classes in my NP program. if you have trouble writing papers, there are so many resources on youtube and online and even your NP school should have resources to help you 🤍
@@ashley_audacious thank you so much!
Salaries vary WILDLY from state to state....unfortunately the responsibility does not. Heavy responsibility for the pay
Fqhc in Chicago, 93k with 5k bonus as a new grad
Thank you so much for sharing ❤
Congratulations 🙌🙌🙌 good luck 🍀 !
Crazy. I'm an lvn and my salary is 145k. I work for cooperate tho. I was making 105k and max i can make is 125k as an lvn health services director for an assisted living then they promote me to regional nurse pay range from 130-160k
First NP job salary was $118k at an FQHC this I was in 2022
I always think the first job you should not negotiate because it's your first you take anything that comes
I don’t agree. with this mentality, this is how they are able to low ball new grads NPs
Easily the most ridiculous comment I’ve read this week. WTH
Wow, beautiful and successful? Life is just not fair lol. Congratulations! 😊
❤❤ thank you so much for the transparency and information it’s very helpful as someone heading back to NP school and even though people say you can make that at bedside it’s the NP lifestyle that I’m after as well as additional autonomy and PTO congrats 🎊 on all of you achievements. After being in the field for sometime now would you still specialize as a WHNP or choose FNP but work in the specialty?
I would still do WHNP. my nursing career has always been in women’s health. I don’t have much interest in other specialties.
How much do you owe in student loans vs your annual salary
I work as a pulmonary and critical care NP and my neighbors’ kids make more money than me, doing accessories and toys review on TH-cam and other social media platforms at the comfort of their home
That's crazy I'm a dental hygienist I'm a 45 and I just got off of 50 as a nurse practitioner you should be getting paid more
Hi! I love your videos. What WH resources would you recommend to use in practice that helped you? Like any specific sites or textbooks, maybe even phone apps?
Omg love this ty ❤
Thank you!❤
taxes are basically robbery. thank you for being so transparent
Great video!
Ok so from looking at those check stubs all the extra money you negotiated for in pay went to taxes and deductions. There was only $100 difference in what went in your wallet.
If you are black person or other nationality and work nurse practitioner and work South they pay you under budget but if you are black person and other nationality and you in north they pay you $175.000 that’s the fact
As a RN working in Alabama (and soon to be, fingers crossed, an NP), I currently make $52.50 an hour. What amount of salary would I be able to negotiate seeing that some NP positions start off at my current salary?
I would say at least $75 an hour minimum and that’s here in New York
Oh my God taxes are so high in the US😮😮
How do you suggest negotiating a higher pay in a small city that is very over saturated ?? I’m wanting to go back to school but hearing the pay of local NP’s is disheartening. They are barely making more than me as an RN of 3 years. We have a very large university with a med school & teaching hospital which may have to do with it.
I recommend taking the compensation course created by @monicathenp
Monica the NP is giving a 1.5 hour presentation at a conference in florida, you can attend it virtually for $50 which is a steal. here is the link

I’m sorry; As a traveler; You can make double that and then some; 3x12hr shifts…Travel sweetie and go see the world; Just came home from San Diego; Feels like a vacation every time!!!
can’t say i’m interested in going back to the bedside right now
I dated a physician assistant recently .. but she dumped me. she seem to be doing well for herself. I miss her a lot.. : (
Thank you for that breakdown. I am in my 4th semester of NP school and I believe that I would like a 8-5? 9-5? We will see, as a lot of the urgent care places are 12 hours where I live.
