    As a health-care professional (HCP) since the past two plus decades now, it really isn't anything to write home about, far from glamorous as they'd make you think, pay is a complete mess as one can expect individuals with far less credentials/license/experience to earn much more or to get promoted into management as a result of SEXISM/ageism/nepotism/discrimination/racism, and the pay is stagnant as one can forget any career ladder/growth opportunities. It is just another hustle and I know that many are scared to say this, but I speak for many and why many are leaving the field and shortages will only worsen - mark my words.

    Some RPNs are now earning six figures. Particularly the ones that are majorly agency nurses.

    Great content Onyeka!! I work as an oncology RPN and as per scope of practice in Ontario RPNs can actually give IVs and also administer blood transfusions as well. The only thing I can’t do as an oncology RPN is chemotherapy.

    Here in the west rpn stands for registered psychiatric nurses the practical nurses are lpns. Most RNs here earn over 100k without too much overtime. The ones who pick more overtime earn close to 300k or more.

    Hey Onyeka, thank you for your insights! I’m sitting in a nice office working an admin job in a biotech company. My job relates mainly to the database management side. I also Had exp in public health and in pharmacy. The monotonous and non-autonomy characteristics of my office job is soul-devouring. So I’m thinking to start nursing school. But i’m scared i’ll make the wrong decision. Do you think that nurses are underpaid in Canada? Plus , do you have a lot of autonomy in your job?

      ​​@@OnyekaAsamakaThe reason US nurses earn more is that US Hospitals are private and for profit, whereas Canadian hospitals are public and health care is universal; equal care for each resident. In the US you have to buy your insurance or copay through your employer. Technically there are no "Private hospitals in Canada"
