I am looking to do it! Do you have advice? I am from Jacksonville!!

[@jesusanddiamond222]

@@LaurenPaigechannel I give all the glory to God for my move lol. So have a pay a broker fee to secure an apartment so save for that. You can do it though, I work in a hospital in Manhattan bring home $6k a month after tax, but rent alone for a 1 bed 1 bath in Brooklyn is $1,800. My rent is on the cheaper side lol. But don’t be scared, it’s definitely a culture shock from growing up in Jax. Once you come up here you won’t want to go back 💛😭

[@jesusanddiamond222]

@@LaurenPaigechannel Listen London is awesome so I can understand that! I heard New York Presbyterian is a good hospital, also Mount Sinai is decent. The other hospital I haven’t heard much about though. They’ll love the BSN, but give yourself like four months to get the NY license.

Most detailed video ! Thank you so much . Do you work at a private hospital or NYC health + hospitals? I am a new grad also moving back to NYC, I am just worried about how hard it is to find a job.

[@jennybyun865]

I work at a private hospital system, not an NYC health+ hospital. I will definitely make a future video about the job process. They didn't give interviews until after I passed the NCLEX. Once I passed, I got an interview 1 month after applying and received an offer within the week. But keep in mind that my position wasa med-surg unit on night shift.

As I finish my LPN to RN bridge program in August; Im guesstimating how much I might make as an RN.....with LPN experience I can work in dialysis for $80-90k yearly plus $10k sign on....so thats going to be my starting point. You're at $103k which I think is very good.

That's not that much. I make 40 in pa as lpn in corrections where the cost of living is much cheaper. I was expecting rn made more in nyc given how expensive is to live there.

[@jeffreyo8496]

She makes $103k per year walking out of school.....The turn over is high in NYC, always, in a couple years she can move up, eventually secure a manager position and jump into the $120k range....working in one of the worlds best, modern hospitals....compared to $40 in corrections with slow upward growth. In NYC we don't have car payments, car insurance, gas, repairs etc. If we rent an apartment, we don't have property insurance...its not much more expensive in the city like everyone thinks. I appreciate people who work corrections, but I did a small stint and it was horrible, smelled like a zoo, but not as friendly and fun like a zoo.

[@IslemTav]

You can live well in NYC with a $100k/year salary. Why do people think that you live a miserable life if you make less than 100k a year and live in NYC? I’ve been living here since 1988. I live in a comfortable studio apartment for $1600/month (rent), utilities included - that’s less than $20k/year. The train is across the street, so no car payment, no gas, no parking expenses, and no car insurance. Public transportation expenses max out at $33/week, after that, it’s free rides. I don’t eat out often, but I can still afford it. Live within your means and you still have money left to save, your retirement, and taxes. If you make more, then great, but you don’t have to to live comfortably in NYC.

[@ricardorodriguesrr18]

@@IslemTav well that's depends on what's your definition of living well. I pay 1200 a month for a 3 bedroom house and I own it not renting and now I'm making around 100k as a lpn. I don't work corrections anymore just doing agency now

Hello there I'm a RN from India. I would love to get job in the US

[@PinkYellowGreen2023]

Love this video. Nurses have all the education and resources they need to make a decent income. They can invest and make more too. Why would their income ever be something left up to others is my question after watching this. Could their potential be limited by references? Their environment? Haters? 🤷‍♀️ Its scary to think that someone with the qualifications and experience to be a nurse would not have a decent income. What could be some obvious reasons in your opinion? Environment? Male Haters? Systems in place? Jealous women?

[@maigematthews5620]

9:01 Awesome content!🎉 Much props to all of the male and female CNA, LVN / LPN, RNs out there. You’re appreciated! Question: I’m trying to figure out what are most affordable LVN / LPN (accredited) programs online. And what is the range of cost and time to complete the programs? Please help with finding any courses (especially specialty) in our field, that can be done completely online? Please correct me with my tuition numbers are off? I’m a man in NYC, no kids, own my house & car w/ no mortgage & no car note. I already am FT in property management w/o college. I’m also only work weekends and sleep 3-4 hours. I’m pursuing a career in Travel TC ICU ER ENP. And I admit that I’ll need help. The route plan is: get my CNA, work in a hospital for 200 hours, get my LPN /LVN, work that in a hospital for 200 hours, then take a bridge course with dual ASN & BSN while studying for a specialty in ER. My studying ethics is close to Neo plugging in & learning kung fu, and Imma beast when it comes to test taking, so I want prep for my HESI, ATI, NCLEX right now while I save about $12,000-$15,000 for all of my tuitions, online books & certifications. My saving averages about $2K to $3K per month, so I should be test ready by the time I have the money. And whatever bread I make during my “clinicals” 400+ hours I will put towards my next tuition fee, which I believe is $23,000. I want to eventually post videos about my journey, because I haven’t seen anyone successfully pull this off. What do you think? Thank you! ❤

Hello, can you tell me how can I reduce the price of ADN tuitions ( all the fees included ) or tell me if their is a free of charge ADN’s program somewhere in USA please ? 🤍

[@supreme5998]

Free? You can find lower cost programs at community colleges for ADN, but it’s not free. It’s still pretty costly. If you find anything free in this world, let me know. Some hospitals do a reimbursement for tuition if you have it in your contract but you still pay the cost upfront through loans or your own means.

[@IslemTav]

Go to a community college. In NY, CUNY and SUNY colleges are tuition-free for individuals making less than $125,000 a year. That includes Associates and Bachelors Degree. And yes - the nursing program is included! I’m currently a nursing student and have paid zero tuition. You must be an NY resident, though. For that reason, the nursing program is extremely competitive and selective.

[@supreme5998]

@@IslemTav Oh, they don't charge tuition even for an ADN? I guess that justifies why they pay so little for nurses even though the cost of living in NYC is comparable to California but the pay is a lot less.

[@IslemTav]

@@supreme5998 Yes, the ADN is included. The salary doesn't have anything to do with the cost of college. Most people end up going to paid nursing programs in NYC, which are quite costly - $20K or more, a lot more. So, no, nothing to do with salary. It's just the ongoing pay rate and there are a lot of nurses looking for jobs here.
