That I understand,but talking to Nurses outside of my job I'm cool with. It's really the jobs that try to hinder, I'm an LPN 18yrs ,they are now trying to make us sign NDAa😮 and I'm private duty Peds...
ER nurses don't do the exact same thing as ICU nurses, I worked both for many years and they are on opposite ends of the spectrum in the field. Both equally important, but vastly different specialties
Just started watching your videos. I had the same experience with my undergrad counselor who told me to start looking into other fields because with my transcript I couldn't get into a nursing school. I didn't give up and retook my pre-requisite courses and applied. I was accepted to an ELMSN program, graduated, and am currently working as a per-diem RN in California. Oh, how the negativity encourages us to keep going! 😏🤭🤓
I feel you. I remember when I was 19 I can't be a nurse cuz, I failed math that I should be a cna not a,nurse. That broke me down deep. I felt I disappointed my mom in a way cuz I admire her cuz she's a nurse. N now I graduate next yr :) 😀
@kaylamichelleyu You went to master degree without a bachelor? May I ask when did you do that becoz many ppl said the NP market now is quite saturated and some NP earn less than a RN.
@@ngocdiepduongtruong4669 I have a bachelors degree in health sciences. The entry level masters program allows those who have a bachelors degree in another field apply. I entered the program in 2019. NP’s are RN’s that have more autonomy when it comes to diagnosing and caring for patients. The benefit of it is you can choose to be at the bedside or be more autonomous. As for making more or less, I can’t say. There’s so many opportunities to make more in the world of nursing which is why I love this channel! 😊
This interview was SO needed!!! You nailed it when you say that nurses do not get pay enough (I'm in CA). The mental and physical stuff that comes with our job (work politics, lack of resource and support, non-compliant/combative patients, judgemental families, unappreciated managers, and compassion fatigue!!!).
Dialysis nurse here---it's hard hard work--the dialysis nurse who gets 4K week needs to go into sales🥳 I have one year left of acute dialysis--it's too hard and not healthy and very toxic
I am also frustrated by the push towards higher and higher education for nurses with no compensation. I was told I wouldn't be competitive for a hospital job if I did not get a BSN instead of an ADN. Job postings in my area started BSN were required or you must be enrolled and completing it in 2 years. It costs tens of thousands more to get a BSN. I've discovered not only do I have coworkers (including new grads) with ADNs, but they make the exact same amount of money. Additionally, the hospital will pay for their BSN that they are "required" to have. Once I have 5 years of experience I can apply for RN 4 that requires a BSN (among many other requirements) for an additional $4/hr. Even then it would take years for me to earn back the 50k extra I spent for a BSN instead of ADN. 😒
@@rachelm76 actually now it cheaper to get a BSN Than it was just 5 years ago. Lot places including online you can do it for under $10k. Try WGU. YOU CAN FINISH IN UNDER A YEAR
wooo never been so early 🎉 excited for this video! I’m graduating with my FNP in October, would love to see more unconventional nurse practitioners making their money! maybe I shall be that NP on the channel one day😂
Well, I am happy to hear people making money. I also love that people document everything thing these days for informational purposes and extra money. However, people watch these kinds of videos and are sitting at some round table right now trying to monopolize so that nurses cant make this kind of money. Ive been watching this take place in every single industry, transportation, tech, insurance, teaching and etc. So its nice that people document everything and have their RU-vid channel. However, it hurts your craft. Trust me.
Don’t like Nurse Union 100 percent but,but,but, I owe them for fighting and standing by nurses in terms of pay and benefits. Many hospitals who nickel and dime their nurses, brainwashed their nurses that Union is bad. Yeah, it’s bad for the administrator. Good for Nurses.
Great video as usual! Just wanted to say the title makes it seem like she makes 60k a year and not a month. Not sure if I’m the only one that feels that way.
Talking about money needs to stop being a taboo! It’s hard to talk to any nurse about financial strategy. I follow the fire movement and feel that I am very financial savvy but most nurses have no clue how to invest or grow their wealth.
Omg. I love digital marketing. Without having the full picture, when people show interest through that poll, they don't all all purchase until they are PIPING hot. That poll is a top of funnel example. A generous amount would be that 30% of them converted to buyers. 🎉
I am a nurse. I love your channel but most of the times I feel so left out because I am an LPN nurse and works at long term care facilities. Your channel is mostly based on RN nurses and nurses who work in the hospital. I wish to know how I can help myself make more money without the hospital experience that your channel is based on. Could you please help my kind of nurse to get financial freedom without the RN or hospital experience?. I know it might be difficult for you since you have not been a nurse at my kind of setting but if you could help, I will truly appreciate. Thanks in advance for helping nurses to know and to find ways to work smart and not obviously staying in a burnt out setting as myself🙏🏾❤️
Have you ever thought of advancing your education? It seems to be the easiest way to increase your income since you’re then eligible for a lot of other jobs
Wow.. 20.10 in 2013. I started high school in 2013 😅. First LPN job out of school (2023) was $22, low balling asf. Still working LTC and accepted a position for $26. Work is back breaking and I’m burnt out. Dunno if I should go back for RN
Her comments about pay is so on point. It’s insane about leadership. It’s a federal law they can not tell you that you can’t talk about pay. The best thing about workers is talking about pay, the enemy is not each other but the companies that gaslight you into treating pay like politics that way you don’t March into management demanding what you’re rightfully owed.
Why just the focus on women, though, for the courses? I'm a male nurse, and I live pretty much the same experience as female nurses working on a hospital unit. I'm on the same financial struggle bus as the female nurses. Same school debt, same exhaustion, same frustrations.
You're literally being mentored by Jason on his RU-vid channel as a male ER nurse on how to create your own $$ through a RU-vid channel. He just told you how he is focused on the channel at the moment and not get side tracked with all the offers he just got like the recruiter example. Get off the struggle bus mentality, listen to this podcast 5 times and dissect what male nurse perspective did and what this female nurse did. The message is NO ONE will save you in Hospital work. There are other avenues you can work outside of the hospital. If you don't have valuable expertise that someone will pay for, like social media marketing, then PAY for the knowledge to accelerate your journey.
@@yourmedicarenursenavigator The comment wasn’t directed at Jason. It was directed at those who focus only on one gender, their gender, for their business. I just can’t make sense of why something like that has to be focused on women alone. I see that and it makes me not want to reach out as a potential client, because it was made clear from the profile itself that someone has made it a point to exclude me. Why? Yes, you can decide to do that, it’s I suppose your right, but it’s not helping you any and there doesn’t seem to be any gender specific reason to do so besides feminism.
@redcapote4760 I guess you can see it that way. If I were a nurse who wanted to niche down to attract nurses, I would focus on 90% of them as women. That's not bias. It's nicheing down.
I think it’s just a historically female-dominated job.. it’s changing over time but a lot of units I have been to are like 80% or more women still. I think she’s speaking to women since it’s her own perspective. I’m sure she doesn’t intend to be exclusive. It’s kind of like addressing a group of random people as “guys.” However I agree it should be a gender neutral message to be more welcoming to male RNs.
Marketing says you should niche down knowing that other ppl will hear your message (they are usually welcomed into the community) but she has to talk to a Target audience. If she has something that interests you, purchase it.
I also start (BC) Bachelor of Commerce then @ university as business management /marketing as a scholar but undergrad coz the school closed! I was able to order my transcript & starting RN program this summer :-) my fave subject is science so , make it easier...
The only reason california has it so great is because of the unions and liberal politics. If people are put off by liberal politics, they really need to get their heads out of the sand and look at the big picture. We really need to be encouraging nurses to unionize nationwide to improve their working conditions. Nothing will change otherwise. If you can find out what the upper management and C suite are making and consider that they don’t really bring any value to the hospital, and they’re the ones who want to limit your pay as much as possible so they can profit off of your labor, you will be appalled. They don’t want you to know this information. They’d rather you believe that being a nurse is a “calling” and you shouldn’t do it for the money. The nursing shortage isn’t real. It’s artificially created by management. If we all unionize we can take back our power and be paid what we deserve. We could have safe staffing and reduce the revolving door caused by burnout.
Being a liberal has nothing to do with it… I’m a conservative in CA and we ALL get together as nurses against Management for pt safety and care! Don’t bring politics into this
Yeah you should have your union as long as its voluntary. I'm against unions because alot are corrupt and only pretend to help workers just to get a portion of their paycheck. So it's a hard no from me. but I hope it works out for yall who are pro-union
60k a month as a nurse? C’mon bruh even some MD don’t bring 60k a month. Be real and transparent you make people think that nurse is the highest pay profession in the healthcare. In order for a nurse to make 10-15k a month they have to work 70-80 hours a week. Who would want to work 80 hour a week???
@Eddie ... he is not misrepresenting anything as you are insinuating. He has videos on this channel that also shows the worse states to work as a nurse where people are not making much. Videos such as this one tells nurses that the money is out there if they are willing to work hard, make a few sacrifices, and do a specific type of work as a nurse.
