how much dose a certified nurse make in a month?

A new graduate nurse is usually required to apply for new graduate residency programs. These programs are difficult to get into because there are many new graduates looking for positions. You must have a high GPA from an accredited Bachelor's Degree in Nursing Program to be qualified for a new graduate residency program at a high quality health care facility. I know many new graduate nurses who have relocated to other cities where they have been accepted in order to receive the entry level on-the-job training and professional mentoring that is important when you start out in nursing. To answer your question about salary, new graduate residency programs salary is much below that of a nurse who has completed the new graduate program which usually takes 1 year. A new graduate residency program may only pay $20-35 per hour depending on the location. Cities such as Boston, Washington D.C., New York City, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, San Francisco, etc. most likely pay the most for new graduates. They definitely pay the most once you have completed the residency. Rural areas and community hospitals do not pay as much as the larger metropolitan areas. An experienced nurse can make anywhere from $50,000 to $70,000 per year depending on the region. Many health care facilities have advancement programs that allow you to move up as you gain experience and show that you are an exemplary nurse. These programs come with very attractive raises. An experienced nurse who accesses this type of advancement program can make over $100,000 per year, full-time. This takes hard-work and dedication and willingness to expand knowledge areas into research, quality and leadership roles.
