I don't normally comment on these social media but I does watch from a distance. This Nigerian nurse is spitting facts. I am a Jamaican nurse and I work with and socialized with my African people that's the wahala in these streets.
I just think Nigerian aboard we put pressure on ourselves wanting to live big and taking all the hours that will be allowed by law to work.12 /14 hours is the basic shift hours for nursing /social care and I see nursing and health care workers doing overtime and working 7 days a week neglecting themselves and family.
They have too many bills. Nursing pay is not as high as they make it sound. It is the overtime that makes them make money. The average pay for nursing is 80k. It doesn’t make you live a big life, with all the bills and paying for the nursing school.
First thing in Marriage is God, understanding, trust, patience,love and knowledge. May God Almighty bless and guides our Marriage in Jesus mighty name Amen!
I am a Nurse in UK presently, everyday I ask mysef what else I can do because I don't enjoy what this whole nursing is all about. Thanks to the man saying we should navigate and explore more
I'm a nurse too in the us. I work 36 hours a week. And I do investment with the little I make. stocks , crypto all on discount now best time to start investment!!
Yep, I'm 58. Worked a lot of overtime in 2 weeks, made $4000, Tax took $1300. Was left with $2700. Then rent $1950. Other bills too. Find it hard to get 5 hours sleep. God help us.

This is a hardcore truth that some men do not cherish. Adaptation and humility is the key to survival abroad. Nigerian mentality is very drowning. Immature ego and Nigerian ostentatious life style is a No, No abroad. High expectations of generating fund for nothing. That’s why lots of people go into illicit professions. However responsible and well meaning Nigerians with very disciplined background do well. Achievement abroad is individualised based on ethical and moral upbringing. I remember in Israel the doctors I worked with respected their encounter with Nigerian scholars that studied with them. However that era is gone now, when most Nigerians believe, that money is every thing. Which is why life is different nowadays.
Nursing job is demanding and stressful.Nursing career is far much better in Australia than other advanced countries including USA as it has reduced nurse to patient ratio,very good work life balance and strong nurse union that advocates for better pay and salary.
Alright let me break it down for y'all. I agree with y'all that there is no money in nursing but what y'all are no seeing are other reasons some pple do nursing. 1) Flexibility: nursing in the US is like artisan job because u can set a target and meet it. U dont have to do overtime, it a choice for u. A lot of pple here condemning nurses for overtime are doing so because their profession is not offering incentive/and flexibility to earn good overtime. 2) Passion: some pple just like nursing because of their love for helping others 3) Entrepreneurial opportunities: A lot of us chose nursing with end game of owning our own nursing business which can be a) Nursing agency 2) Elderly Home 3) Nursing Home...and many more. 4) Opportunities: Opportunities plenty...different kind of nursing, ladder to climb and become NP, opportunity to start ur own practice...and many more. Im a nurse and its one of the best decision I ever made.
Nursing job is by nature stressful. They get paid well and is so much in demand in US. The African nurses work very hard save their money and build houses both in Naija and maintain US life style. Yes in some case I repeat some cases it creates the ground for divorce because little time spent with family at times, some couples may not be able to balance out. It's based on individual couples. But their hard work pays off and they have successful in their career. Also in other careers like IT is controlled mainly by Asian Indians but Nurses are saturated more with Africans mostly.
@@kennyking5606 you are the one talking rubbish. What do you know about attitude. Just look at how you just spoke nonsense. Think we'll before spitting rubbish if you are miserable in your career others are not responsible for your misery so think before you spit trash back to your miserable life
Dr Freeze , Nursing is of different categories. All nusese are not only bad side. They are degree, Masters, PHD, Professors of Nursing. The are Nursing lecturers lecturing in the college of Medicine, administrators . So their pay is different depending on your speciality.
Nothing is easy abroad . Truth is that if not for the bad governance in Nigeria ehnn , Check am now ! From North to South , East to West home is still BEST . No place like home .
I’m an American female with an Licensed practical nurses license, I left nursing back in 2011 and I don’t regret it. I even went back to school and finished RN program but didn’t follow up with getting the license. All I saw in nursing was a bunch of stressed out, unhappy men and women. Everything this guy spoke is truth.
Life is about what you make it. As a nurse anesthesiologist with 28years experience, income is well above $250,000.00. The MRI tech making $35000.00 in NY from two jobs and some overtime said 85% of nurses are divorced. I don’t agree with that statistics. The nurse in the panel said it all. A man must upgrade himself to be the head of the household. Economic empowerment changes people significantly. Sometimes for good and sometimes very bad but everything has to do with the foundation of individuals, their belief system. The way I see it, we as foreigners have the best because we can blend the good of our original country and the good of our present country to our benefit but you must understand it first.
Seems its the same everywhere but better than where i am coming from where you're paid monthly, at least you get paid per hour. Also, my people upgrade like he says, i was a mere health care assistant . I work 7pm to 7am - straight 12hour shifts, and I have decided to upgrade to nurse assessor which is a higher band. Don't come and settle for carer jobs, if you can upgrade yourself. Blessings
Exactly! This guy is right. Daddy Freeze the way they shout about nursing, as if they’re the CEOs. In America, there are only few jobs that black people and immigrants can get access to like nursing. And very few jobs that employees can become rich doing. Work is not set to enrich people, but enrich the companies. It’s only when you own the company, because we are working to enrich the companies. They feel they’re doing you a favor by giving you a job!!
You are right. The noise about nursing is just out of ignorance. Nursing isn't the best paying job but just about availability cos the 'children of the land' aren't very interested in stressful and non commensurate jobs. It also makes me laugh when pple use 'security jobs' as bad examples. All way na way as we say in Nigeria.
People be truthful, low nursing level jobs are stressful, while high ranked nursing jobs are chilling jobs in the USA However, it depends on what state you live….
Wow, this is so true, i have seen many people crying about the pressure for instance, husband, has a wife and 2,3 kids - they're on 2.5years, they have to renew their paperwork and it's almost like £10,000 so, you are saving for all that money, plus bills, rent etc. It is not easy at all.
The first brother nurse didn't lie at all. I am a mental health nurse in UK and working for the agency is where the money is. I work permanent as a bank because I can choose the days I can work and the rest of the days, I work for the agency.. Better money and nurses are hot cakes.
Please ask him how long he's been doing this and when is he leaving the job...? People forget that life is a struggle home or abroad.... The difference is just the quality of struggle.
I have never seen a country where nursing is not stressful. As a nurse that have worked in Nigeria and now the US, I can say the respect, earnings and prestige as a US nurse is overrated
Ppl are forgetting that nurses don’t have to work for year on the floor . They can do a year or two n become nurse practitioner making 150-200k sitting down diagnosing patients. They even have physician assistant like nurse practitioner making same as nurse practitioner without nursing school. But taxes wud be 50% once u cross that 100k salary so u actually take 1/2home of ur gross to pay bills.
Some nurses live beyond their means, I said some. Some like to boast and out do their peers. So, African men are not cheating when they go abroad before the wife? We see and hear it here a lot ooo. Thank you brother for saying that men have cheated too.
@@maryah0422 sister ,it s very hard !spending holidays at work without your family,barely sleeping,constant studying !If you don’t have a supporting partner,you relationship is bound to end!That ´s why most marry within the profession or with engineers or people who understand having a busy schedule !I do not wish that on my children unless they want it !
People you can investigate on your own. In America the highest starting salary for a MRI technologist starts at 99 thousand. Do not let anyone fool you. Registered Nurses with a Bachelors in Nursing start at 100 thousand plus added benefits and guaranteed yearly experience pay, plus whatever your union negotiated as your yearly raise. You don't have to work overtime if you don't want to. Why would you pay 2500 for rent when you can save your money for a down payment on a house and pay that money as mortgage.
In my opinion, I think you are only concentrating on bed side nursing. There are so many other areas you can dive into without the stress you mentioned. I am a nurse, and I will say follow what brings you happiness, fulfillment and pay your bills.
This man God must bless you for saying the truth about what it takes to be a nurse abroad. Many women have been through hell just because they are nurses.
It is good to work hard and earn lots money, but what about the upbringings of your children and family life? ,your health? Children ,especially need both parents authority to have a balanced life.Think of that.
Am Nigerian French citizens living in France..London is just a close by...living in Britain without proper documentation is a problem...Nigerians must plan well before any steps...A lot of Nigeria are suffering because of no document
How much you earn as nurses in USA depends on the state, the area of specialty and experience. My Benin is talking for himself because he lives in New York. If you take out these points, an average in USA earns $66k/yr excluding traveling or strike nurses-they are contractors.
Hence nurse are not earning anything extraordinary. They way they make it through is having 2 or more jobs which can be overwhelming. Most of them do these multiple jobs to meet up with the public impressions. Though these jobs are ready available regardless of your nationality or accents.
Even tech salary na the same 90-130k but after taxes n bill nothing go dey their pocket na paycheck to paycheck living but them no get opportunity for overtime to make up for taxes n bills. LPn fit knack 4-5 k after taxes but depending on lifestyle go determine Wetin remain. RN dey make 8-10k after taxes with overtime depending on lifestyle go determine Wetin go remain after bills. E go better day then get spouse den they go share bill money go remain for each person pocket after bills
If you go abroad "Up grade yourself " Not everyone can do nursing. If you do nursing because of money you get into trouble easily and your pin or you get a record for abuse. Sometimes the trouble is not worth the money.
Very well spoken my dear. you shouldn't dive into nursing just for money one should ve a passion for it .money is good but the love of mo ney is very dangerous .1timothy 6vs10
Even doctors have to also do overtime to make up the money . Imagine a man expecting his wife to come and work that amount hours to provide and he will be relying on her money
@@calebadeleye It's lazy men that talk like this because that's the role God gave you. If there's a next life ask God to bring you as a woman so you know what childbirth and nursing children feels like
Are you sure, didn't you hear that so many nurses in Ireland are becoming taxi drivers and also becoming tutors. Do you really know that Ireland is the least paid because they are still ancient of days.
To my MRI technician, how many MRI tech opportunities dey? How many staff do you have in your whole radiology dept compare to the nurses' staff strength
It's equivalent to slavery and brain drain for Nigeria. I hope our leaders are watching all these and having a rethink on how they run the nation causing people to want to immigrate
CORRECTION: a nurse practitioner is NOT equivalent to being a doctor. The training to become a licensed physician in North America is no small feat and should NOT be compared to NP roles. Both are solid roles but the rigorous training of a physician is way more than that of an NP.
All these hype over nurses. My son is 24 & a computer science & mathematics major he came out the gate making over $200 thousands par Anual . 👍🏼 ( All Love from oakland California ) by way of Auchi in Edo state south. South of Nigeria 🇳🇬
The men should go to nursing school as well so they can understand the stress in it. And stop drivi g taxi cab, uber etc. They sit all day at Airports gossiping, when the woman come back from the stressing job, they still want you to go to the kitchen and does like in Africa, not to talk of paying bills more than the men or equally
I think the women have to calm down, now I understand why relationship in America and UK normally don't work out. It's not always about working working
If you come here get your CDL License or go to business and specialize in carpentry, plumbing, electrical, concrete and so forth then you go enjoy and those make money and mostly dey deal with cash and then no get time for debit card. You could get heart attack from doing nursing here and it's very stressful and dem go use throw Way. Talking from experience and forget olu oyibo or you go into some kind of ICT
Most married African women were like that until cases of side checks surfaced. Wife will be financing broke hubby while he uses funds dey finance slay queen somewhere. The new thing now is security..... I miss the marriage of our parents, an era when you could trust a man with everything you had and go to sleep. African women are hard working let's face it and leaving a man is not just in our DNA.
I don't blame people who say Nigeria is a jungle. A lot of Nigerian men are so savage both in Nigeria and abroad. It will take a long time for them to understand how to treat Nigerian women which they'll never try with white women or African Americans. Daddy Freeze, if you live abroad, you for don go jail tire for abusing your wife's right. I can't remember if it was the ex-governor of New York who faced criticism and later impeachment for allegedlly abusing his female staff at work and dismissing a claim by one of them who told him she had cramps. A lot of Nigerian many got a long way to go
the nurse very calm and talks well..correct brother.....9ja are so good in one way, always one direction..just as pos operators will soon hit 100m😂,no one thinks whats other cool biz to start
Most Nurses can't leave when their shift is over. Most can't take breaks. If someone doesn't show up,the Nurse on duty has to invountarily work another shift.
Do I still have to pay UK tax if I live abroad? You can live abroad and still be a UK resident for tax, for example if you visit the UK for more than 183 days in a tax year. Pay tax on your income and profits from selling assets (such as shares) in the normal way. You usually have to pay tax on your income from outside the UK as well.
Sorry, I’ve been an RN for many years with advanced degrees. Never worked more than 8 hours. Let’s say it, some folks are just greedy and push 12-16hrs. How can that person give quality care? Some really like the profession, and are professional from day one, some are not and just make a joke of it , not giving quality care. This guy is telling his story. Any rent in NY that is $2000 a month, that’s mortgage money. Sorry ooo. Does he only have a Diploma Degree or only Associate degree. Oh, he is an LPN? I’m talking here about going straight to college for an RN degree from high school,then to Bachelors then Masters and beyond. Many nurses came to the USA from the Caribbean and England. I Never needed to nor did my friends do overtime. Perhaps it’s normal for some. This is a Nigerian thing? Sorry ooo, leaving your wife behind then come? So, what about him being unfaithful??? Oh please!
Surgical nurses are in demand with BSN degrees, experienced. Money is made in well known Hospitals, who have accreditation, are teaching hospitals that become corporations and demand furthering education and skills.Skills must be upgraded ongoing. Not all training is the same. Nursing homes CANNOT be compared to accredited TEACHING HOSPITALS, that pay for the education the nurses have. Some hospitals do not hire LPNs. I know of what I’m saying. I lived in NY, then Long Island for years. Quality of care is Paramount!Quality and Standards of the Facility are also Paramount!
Nurse Practitioners are in demand, several of my friends are. They love it, many decide their work schedules etc. The reason why many Nigerians go for nursing is this; many boast that they make lots of money doing OVERTIME!!
@@yvettewilliams5967 Please can you explain what is 'Nurse Practitioner', I also read another comment where someone said it's the best. Is it a field in nursing school? My sister wants to be a nurse and I want to be sure she takes the right steps
@WorldData_0 nurse practitioners are advanced practising nurses with higher qualifications, experience and therefore scope of practice. They are not normal bedside nurses but basically work with physiciais to diagnose and even prescribe medications whereas other nurses are not able or allowed to do this. The requirements for this are a few years experience as a registered nurse, then you'll need a masters degree specific for being a nurse practitioner, then some years of clinical placement experience as a student nurse practitioner where you will work with a doctor and learn how to diagnose and prescribe. After all these, you'll become a nurse practitioner.
Do I need to pay UK tax when in Dubai? The UK and Dubai have a double-taxation agreement which means you won't have to pay UK tax whilst working in Dubai. You can voluntarily make National Insurance Contributions if you plan on returning to the UK for retirement. This will contribute to your state pension entitlement.2 Apr 2024
Standing for hours everyday can ruin somebodys body and mental health. Unless your body is truly built for that purpose. You will have anxiety to go to work.
Daddy Freeze , let people tell you the in and out of nursing in the USA, African nurses please join the federal government to make more money and work less
What do people not consider much money? The average hourly salary is $15 hourly. Nurses in general make around $40 hourly. There are different specialties of nurses that “sit down”. If tht is what u plan to do. Case management and OR nurses have a lot of downtime to sit down lol what are u people talking about.
Not too equivalent. I was to have a test done by a doctor and I wanted to go on a Saturday. But they said there are no doctors on Saturdays, only Nurse Practitioners and they can’t do the test. I had to leave work, which I didn’t want to, to go on a weekday for the test to be done by a doctor.
This is the only person who is telling Nigerians the truth, step by step. Those who have ears let them hear

ER nurses don’t sit. However, specialist nurses could during consultation
Am Nigerian French citizens living in France..London is just a close by...living in Britain without proper documentation is a problem...Nigerians must plan well before any steps...A lot of Nigeria are suffering because of no document
You are very correct !!
In the Abroad, it is the taxes they use to build their Country in America, UK, Canada , etc That is why Abroad fine fighT? It is the taxes they use
Great discussion, I enjoyed it.
How much you earn as nurses in USA depends on the state, the area of specialty and experience. My Benin is talking for himself because he lives in New York. If you take out these points, an average in USA earns $66k/yr excluding traveling or strike nurses-they are contractors.
Hence nurse are not earning anything extraordinary. They way they make it through is having 2 or more jobs which can be overwhelming. Most of them do these multiple jobs to meet up with the public impressions. Though these jobs are ready available regardless of your nationality or accents.
Am a registered nurse as well in Australia/ new Zealand, hmm so so wahala. The stress is unexplainable, all because man need to survive 😪
Even tech salary na the same 90-130k but after taxes n bill nothing go dey their pocket na paycheck to paycheck living but them no get opportunity for overtime to make up for taxes n bills. LPn fit knack 4-5 k after taxes but depending on lifestyle go determine Wetin remain. RN dey make 8-10k after taxes with overtime depending on lifestyle go determine Wetin go remain after bills. E go better day then get spouse den they go share bill money go remain for each person pocket after bills
This Guy has actually said it all. Most African men do not upgrade themselves. The reason why they feel most "upgraded women" are too proud abroad.
If you go abroad "Up grade yourself "
Not everyone can do nursing. If you do nursing because of money you get into trouble easily and your pin or you get a record for abuse. Sometimes the trouble is not worth the money.
Very well spoken my dear. you shouldn't dive into nursing just for money one should ve a passion for it .money is good but the love of mo ney is very dangerous .1timothy 6vs10
@@wisdomogbutu1065 I agree with you.
Even doctors have to also do overtime to make up the money . Imagine a man expecting his wife to come and work that amount hours to provide and he will be relying on her money
but the man can do all the stress and the wife rely on his money?
@@calebadeleye It's lazy men that talk like this because that's the role God gave you. If there's a next life ask God to bring you as a woman so you know what childbirth and nursing children feels like
@@godschild4615 did they force you to marry?
Not sure about America but here in Ireland nurses are well paid. Its worth the stress
Seriously, is it better than UK, I am trying make a choice. 🙏
Are you sure, didn't you hear that so many nurses in Ireland are becoming taxi drivers and also becoming tutors. Do you really know that Ireland is the least paid because they are still ancient of days.
Lol
To my MRI technician, how many MRI tech opportunities dey? How many staff do you have in your whole radiology dept compare to the nurses' staff strength
Our people are suffering for real.
It's equivalent to slavery and brain drain for Nigeria. I hope our leaders are watching all these and having a rethink on how they run the nation causing people to want to immigrate
I live in the us am in the nursing home without over time you check is nothing taxes no be joke the more you work the more taxes they take
Whatever job you work in you will have to pay taxes in America
If you are abroad and complaining, please come back to Nigeria.
Very true I know like 3 to 4 nurses and can't even date any one all of them are stressed I just leave them
Nursing is the great job for Africans in USA, no doubt about it.
No b our noncense governmentt🤷🏽♂️.watin concern person concern abroad 🙄☹️
If it’s stressful then return back ..
CORRECTION: a nurse practitioner is NOT equivalent to being a doctor. The training to become a licensed physician in North America is no small feat and should NOT be compared to NP roles. Both are solid roles but the rigorous training of a physician is way more than that of an NP.
All these hype over nurses. My son is 24 & a computer science & mathematics major he came out the gate making over $200 thousands par Anual . 👍🏼 ( All Love from oakland California ) by way of Auchi in Edo state south. South of Nigeria 🇳🇬
The men should go to nursing school as well so they can understand the stress in it. And stop drivi g taxi cab, uber etc. They sit all day at Airports gossiping, when the woman come back from the stressing job, they still want you to go to the kitchen and does like in Africa, not to talk of paying bills more than the men or equally
I think the women have to calm down, now I understand why relationship in America and UK normally don't work out. It's not always about working working
@@albah289 Exactly 💯
@@albah289very true
If you come here get your CDL License or go to business and specialize in carpentry, plumbing, electrical, concrete and so forth then you go enjoy and those make money and mostly dey deal with cash and then no get time for debit card. You could get heart attack from doing nursing here and it's very stressful and dem go use throw Way. Talking from experience and forget olu oyibo or you go into some kind of ICT
Most married African women were like that until cases of side checks surfaced. Wife will be financing broke hubby while he uses funds dey finance slay queen somewhere. The new thing now is security..... I miss the marriage of our parents, an era when you could trust a man with everything you had and go to sleep. African women are hard working let's face it and leaving a man is not just in our DNA.
The system is different in Abraod.
Then the man no dey hungry.
I don't blame people who say Nigeria is a jungle. A lot of Nigerian men are so savage both in Nigeria and abroad. It will take a long time for them to understand how to treat Nigerian women which they'll never try with white women or African Americans. Daddy Freeze, if you live abroad, you for don go jail tire for abusing your wife's right. I can't remember if it was the ex-governor of New York who faced criticism and later impeachment for allegedlly abusing his female staff at work and dismissing a claim by one of them who told him she had cramps. A lot of Nigerian many got a long way to go
the nurse very calm and talks well..correct brother.....9ja are so good in one way, always one direction..just as pos operators will soon hit 100m😂,no one thinks whats other cool biz to start
Exactly, so on point
Most Nurses can't leave when their shift is over.
Most can't take breaks.
If someone doesn't show up,the Nurse on duty has to invountarily work another shift.
Do I still have to pay UK tax if I live abroad?
You can live abroad and still be a UK resident for tax, for example if you visit the UK for more than 183 days in a tax year. Pay tax on your income and profits from selling assets (such as shares) in the normal way. You usually have to pay tax on your income from outside the UK as well.
So True, some men need to tell themselves the truth. Anyone can be a nurse. Why are these complaining men not Nurses themselves.
I think it’s growth opportunities. Like nurse practitioner etc . Radiography - MRI tech wat are the growth opportunities ? Asides from med school?
Sorry, I’ve been an RN for many years with advanced degrees. Never worked more than 8 hours. Let’s say it, some folks are just greedy and push 12-16hrs. How can that person give quality care? Some really like the profession, and are professional from day one, some are not and just make a joke of it , not giving quality care. This guy is telling his story. Any rent in NY that is $2000 a month, that’s mortgage money. Sorry ooo. Does he only have a Diploma Degree or only Associate degree. Oh, he is an LPN? I’m talking here about going straight to college for an RN degree from high school,then to Bachelors then Masters and beyond. Many nurses came to the USA from the Caribbean and England. I Never needed to nor did my friends do overtime. Perhaps it’s normal for some. This is a Nigerian thing? Sorry ooo, leaving your wife behind then come? So, what about him being unfaithful??? Oh please!
Surgical nurses are in demand with BSN degrees, experienced. Money is made in well known Hospitals, who have accreditation, are teaching hospitals that become corporations and demand furthering education and skills.Skills must be upgraded ongoing. Not all training is the same. Nursing homes CANNOT be compared to accredited TEACHING HOSPITALS, that pay for the education the nurses have. Some hospitals do not hire LPNs. I know of what I’m saying. I lived in NY, then Long Island for years. Quality of care is Paramount!Quality and Standards of the Facility are also Paramount!
Nurse Practitioners are in demand, several of my friends are. They love it, many decide their work schedules etc. The reason why many Nigerians go for nursing is this; many boast that they make lots of money doing OVERTIME!!
@@yvettewilliams5967 Please can you explain what is 'Nurse Practitioner', I also read another comment where someone said it's the best. Is it a field in nursing school? My sister wants to be a nurse and I want to be sure she takes the right steps
@WorldData_0 nurse practitioners are advanced practising nurses with higher qualifications, experience and therefore scope of practice. They are not normal bedside nurses but basically work with physiciais to diagnose and even prescribe medications whereas other nurses are not able or allowed to do this. The requirements for this are a few years experience as a registered nurse, then you'll need a masters degree specific for being a nurse practitioner, then some years of clinical placement experience as a student nurse practitioner where you will work with a doctor and learn how to diagnose and prescribe. After all these, you'll become a nurse practitioner.
@@agbaya5314 Thank you
Do I need to pay UK tax when in Dubai? The UK and Dubai have a double-taxation agreement which means you won't have to pay UK tax whilst working in Dubai. You can voluntarily make National Insurance Contributions if you plan on returning to the UK for retirement. This will contribute to your state pension entitlement.2 Apr 2024
Travel nurses make close to 200k annually easily in california
Standing for hours everyday can ruin somebodys body and mental health. Unless your body is truly built for that purpose. You will have anxiety to go to work.
The MRI guy came to the US just to sit down, na wao
Weldone . I enjoyed this show
Daddy Freeze , let people tell you the in and out of nursing in the USA,
African nurses please join the federal government to make more money and work less
I agree with you, but it pays the bill and put you in the position of not wanting
MRI techs job limited than Nursing
Very limited. How many MRI techs are needed in a hospital or clinic compared to a nurse
What do people not consider much money? The average hourly salary is $15 hourly. Nurses in general make around $40 hourly. There are different specialties of nurses that “sit down”. If tht is what u plan to do. Case management and OR nurses have a lot of downtime to sit down lol what are u people talking about.
Not too equivalent. I was to have a test done by a doctor and I wanted to go on a Saturday. But they said there are no doctors on Saturdays, only Nurse Practitioners and they can’t do the test. I had to leave work, which I didn’t want to, to go on a weekday for the test to be done by a doctor.
Daddy Freeze the guy is right…if you make the money in the uk or usa and try to move to Dubai… they call it “Exit Tax”
Why is the male nurse on on life stream while at work? It’s certainly not allowed.
He may be on break
This guy is so wise ❤
I need to know what state the MRI tech guy works in. Making 350k a year as a mri tech is crazy
He worked unimaginably💀
Thank you sir you have said it all.
