Well 1st off, are you an associated degree R.N. or a BSN?  Or have your master's degree as a Nurse Practicioner?  It all depends on what level of education your at.  A typical range though for Atlanta is 18 an hour to 40 an hour.  Arizona is about the same.  And it depends of what type of facility.  I was just offered a job at J.B. Smith Health Care System in AZ and I was to start at 35 an hour.  Masters degree plus degrees in neurology, psychology, and Paramedics

Nursing. They are currently importing them from several other countries because of shortages in US. You may also want to consider being a PA or physicians assistant, less schooling than a doctor and a high paying salary. -Super

Well the city that pays the most probably has the highest cost of living, so that might not be your best search criteria. For pay rates, check the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Outlook Handbook at:\nhttp://www.bls.gov/oco/

There are several hospitals in San Diego, though I'm not sure what part of El Cajon Blvd you are asking about.\nAlvarado hospital is over by San Diego State University, Grossmont Hospital is in La Mesa (Just down the 8 freeway) and Sharp Hospital is just off the 163 and the 8 (a bit north).\nAs for salary, check out salaries.com (I think that's the name).  I hope you both find jobs.  Also, you might check out student health services at SDSU to see if they have positions.\nUCSD is in La Jolla, and there are several hospitals over there too.  You will find something!

It depends on where you live.  An RN can make anywhere from $30 to $50 per hour.  Not to include overtime.  Plus you can work for other companies part time and increase your pay two-fold.  Normally 40 hrs per week with a bonus upon signing up every year...\nCalifornia rates would be higher than say Texas or New Mexico.  The cost of living is figured into pay if you didn't know...\nWhat is a WOCN RN btw?

I would go for Nurse Practitioner or Physician's Assistant--which is best depends on state laws. Both get good salaries and are in high demand right now.

Okay nurses DO NOT make $100,000 a year unless they are Nurse practioners or Nurse anesthesists. Both require masters degrees. You aren't going to make more than $55,000 without a masters or without tons of experience.

The best degree is nursing.  There is a shortage of nurses throughout the world.  You can work anywhere as a nurse, and get paid a good salary.

I'd suggest Houston.  I'm in the medical field as well, and have moved away a few times, but keep coming back because Houston has by far the best career opportunites of places I've been.  Cost of living is much lower than other large cities.  You can buy a 3 BR house for under 150K.  Houston has the largest consolidated medical center in the US, and there are over 80 hospitals in the city, including several large teaching institutions.  Winters are very mild, though the summers are pretty hot.  You're less than an hour from the beach, and there are some fantastic restaurants here.

Go into nursing. There is a huge shortage of nurses if you are in the U.S. You will have you pick of places to work and can get large sign-on bonuses. Plus, to many people in the hospital, nurses are far more important to their day to day lives than doctors. You can really make an impact on people's lives and get paid well for it.
