THIS is how much nurse practitioners make in 2023

[@DavidWarrenNP]

What's up KZbin! I'm planning to develop a course on how to be a travel nurse practitioner- per diem, part time, or full time, and how you can *double your current NP salary. Comment below if you are interested in this!

[@Pureblood-Nojab]

Yes! Interested!

[@CarleRae]

Please do this!!!

[@Scar-jg4bn]

Interested!

[@kgreer5316]

Highly interested!

[@nolroc]

Yes! Me!! This is exactly what I need to learn about! (Among many other things of course.) I'm starting NP school next spring and I want to find a way to leverage the best aspects of advanced practice and travel nursing at the same time. Sure, I want the money to be sustainable and worth the time and effort of going back to school. But more importantly, I want the freedom and autonomy to move and relocate at will. I have had a bad case of wanderlust since I was a teenager, and having a family who is onboard and a career that lends itself to travel I'm looking for the best way to make this happen.

Hola friends! So wanted to share my situation but also a SECRET! Everyone NP should target Dermatology IF you really wanna chase the money. So currently I do derm and make 35% of whatever I bring into the clinic. Because of this I really have unlimited income. Last year I made 365K. It can be worry some if your income is based on production about the “what if” patients stop coming but in the past 7 years I have never had to worry about that.

[@travelnurseadventures3225]

I don't know, dermatology is iffy--another covid, bad economy, WW3, increased inflation people will skip dermatology imo

[@allisont.2678]

FNP in rural Arizona, primary care 3-4 days a week, $162k per year and small bonus. No raise since 2021 though. Headed to upstate NY and curious as to what they will offer

[@allisont.2678]

Update: Upstate NY primary care offered $113 from Bassett (15 days of PTO a year btw) and another organization offered $121. Both have RVUs incentives but total take home very unclear

[@seasidepatio832]

FNP Pennsylvania telepsych $90-100/h, inpt psych $55 FT …and now I’m jumping into FM locum work. Love the channel btw!

[@DavidWarrenNP]

Hey! Thank you for sharing and thanks for watching! I would love to find a telehealth job, but those seem harder to come by as a FNP!

[@travelnurseadventures3225]

NP psych is where the $ at--regardless of the economy mental health from providers will always be needed

[@CristinaV.Quinones]

You can make great money BUT big corporations, hospitals and private practice physician owned clinics will absolutely pay you the minimal, because they can. It’s very similar IMO to what’s going on (and has been) in nursing in hospital systems (newer RN’s get paid the least; work the hard jobs and eventually leave to travel, move up the ladder or move on for more money) but like you said; amplified because of the high saturation of FNP’s. CVS can pay an FNP $39/hr because it’s a very new grad friendly job, and there’s so many new grad FNP’s that they will actually compete for that job (I got paid way more as an RN with cvs doing vaccines on contract btw).

[@DavidWarrenNP]

Totally agree. I think it all comes down to supply and demand issues- with the NP market.

[@rjsmusicstudio4716]

I know a NP making 300k but they have their own practice and traveling.

[@DavidWarrenNP]

Yes! It definitely is possible. The salary is endless when you open up to traveling/having your own business.

[@Alexander-mk9kg]

Hi there, I'm a dual certified FNP and PMHNP in Virginia. Make just over $150K + 35-50K in bonuses per year working no more than 40 hours per week. This is a W2 position with benefits package. I think I'm pretty fairly compensated for only being an NP for 4.5 years, though with housing in this area, could always make more money! Appreciate the video!!

[@francisfree5242]

the west all together pays more than the east and south in general. salaries for nursing etc are much higher out this way. RNs in california can easily make NP salaries. the only reason one pursues NP in california is because of the schedule usually mon-friday otherwise they can make as much in their current position. california has the best nursing laws in the country, and highest salaries in the country as well. i really wish other states would adapt that model, it seems the PNW is heading in that direction (Oregon, washington) etc.

[@DavidWarrenNP]

Yes- I can attest to that after living in Ca the last year and a half. However, the cost of living is literally unreasonable 😂

[@Mannydingo30]

You can make $72.27 an hour starting new grad with a BSN in Sacramento.. I was super shocked but I was also super stocked haha

[@getinthespace7715]

Be careful not to ignore cost of living and taxes... Cost of living in Sacramento is 20% higher than national average. Taxes are high, will also be about 32%. You'll clear $100k but that's the equivalent of $80k after taxes if you lived in a more reasonable part of the country... If you have kids... you'll likely have to put them in private school in CA. California's public schools are near the worst in the country.

[@happyface27]

So imagine what an NP can make in Sacramento

[@getinthespace7715]

@happyface27 , my wife graduates with her NP in Michigan, just signed a contract for $95/hr... Taxes are lower, cost of living is 30% less. Much safe and better place to raise a family. You couldn't pay me enough to live in those crime and drug riden major CA cities.

[@dorisbradley1749]

@@getinthespace7715 What parts of Michigan are best for families who are NPs?

[@MyPMHNPJourney]

Great info and well researched. Looking forward to your thoughts on psychiatric nurse practitioner!

[@DavidWarrenNP]

Thank you so much for watching! I have content ready to be uploaded on this- stay tuned!

[@thomasc6127]

Crazy…. You shouldn’t be making less than 6 figures as a new grad NP anywhere you go with a masters degree. Sad

[@DavidWarrenNP]

I totally agree! Unfortunately, far too many accept way less

[@travelnurseadventures3225]

NP is still a Nurse--when Nurses get respect--they could make as much as a new grad out of security IT

[@RedFaceeee]

This series will be great!

[@DavidWarrenNP]

Thanks for watching dude!

[@JesusisLord375]

Hey @davidwarren thanks for all the great content you’ve shared with us. Very informative. I was wondering did any of your NP classes transfer into the Crna program?

[@lauramazo1789]

Hi David, I would love to know more about how you are doing as an SRNA and how the program you are in will do clinicals. I remember that you mentioned that you would be going to a different state and I just wanted to see if you could tell us more?

[@DavidWarrenNP]

Hi! Thank you for watching! And I absolutely will do some videos on the clinical phase of my program! I plan to have some videos coming up in the next few weeks about what's going on now, and in the future etc.

[@lauramazo1789]

@@DavidWarrenNP looking forward to it, thank you :)

[@RusticRidgeCustomSigns]

Love your videos brother. Starting the Adult-Gero Primary Care program in April.

[@francisfree5242]

also forgot to mention is we attract more men into nursing i can guarantee salaries will be much higher and better working conditions overall. since its primarily a womens field (female dominated) its lowly paid for the amount of work and education required. in the west we have more male nurses from my experience compared to the south and or midwest etc.

[@DavidWarrenNP]

That is an interesting observation- I don't know that I have noticed that!

[@travelnurseadventures3225]

yep, sad fact: Nursing is 87% female and is a pink ghetto: Healthcare makes up 77% of all workplace violence, low pay, low respect, etc--more males in Nursing=more $$$, better working conditions etc--sad really, but that's the truth

[@J.Wynn1]

Wow, I thought travel NP would be more. As a travel nurse, our contracts are pretty much the same. I start NP school in august

[@travelnurseadventures3225]

travel companies take most of the nurses money, leaving the nurse with the federal money stipend-the same stipend truckers get--travel nursing is a racket

[@slmslmlol]

Hi David I am an APN, when you have time can you break down the differences between 1099 and W2. Thank you

Hey David was there a particular reason you switched from NP to CRNA ?

@@DavidWarrenNP fantastic! I've watched your content since before I started nursing school years ago, and it's always great! I have your tips on being a locum NP bookmarked for use at some point in the future when I go back to school. 😊

[@someperson4819]

They really need to bring NP wage to minimum wage considering how low skill these quacks are.

[@RedFaceeee]

How does one get taxed when working at wildernessmedical? Is it by my home state like if I live in Texas and I wouldn’t be taxed?

[@DavidWarrenNP]

What's up man. Most locum companies (WMS included) pays you a lump sum, without taxes taken out. At the end of the year, they issue a 1099, and then you file your taxes with that. You just file your taxes in whatever state you live in. My residence is Texas, and there's no state income tax, so I don't have to worry with that. But if you lived in a state with state income tax, then you would pay taxes on what you made with a locums company in your home state.

[@RedFaceeee]

@@DavidWarrenNP That’s it I’m moving to Texas lol. Thanks for the quick reply!

[@feefee42]

Texas has no state taxes; therefore, I think nursing pay across the board is going to be low..

[@marlysem.2221]

Hi David!! Are you considering still doing NP and CRNA and alternate between careers? Do you regret choosing NP instead of doing CRNA right away

[@DavidWarrenNP]

Hey! Good question. I still want to work as a NP as well. I'm not sure what I see myself doing after school, but I do want to utilize both degrees/certs. I def do not regret anything. Being a NP allowed me to travel the world and have some of the most amazing experiences ever.

[@nicolebeck1269]

I’m in a NP program at a reputable university. It’s part of a college and hospital in a large city. Im staring my 3 rd semester and I went in adult gero. But I have talked w my advisor about changing to adult acute. Im a little older, 40. A lot of nursing experience. Considering traveling after a little experience. How much experience do u have to get to travel w ur NP and is there much opportunity to travel w AGPCNP?

[@nicolebeck1269]

My bad I meant AGACNP…

[@jasonmardoniomeza1711]

My experience is that nurse practitioners and Doctors...especially in hospitals do not care ...really about the patients.
