Are Lvn/lpn Nurses Paid Well In The Seattle Area?


This Question From Idaho LPN Programs | 1 Answer


My mom is an LVN/LPN nurse and we’re moving to Seattle. She was paid 32 dollars an hour in California, but 19 dollars an hour in Idaho. Are nurses like her paid well in the Seattle area? Are there particular businesses or companies that pay better, for example are assisted living facilities the best paying? I’d appreciate any advice at all.

    Hi please check this site to find out the salarie for LVN/LPN nurses in Seattle, WA.
    It has job postings also…http://www.indeed.com/salary?q1=Licensed…
    I actually had a few Filippino friends who are nurses and they work at a hospice in Lynnwood (north of seattle). One of them mentioned to me before that in her first year, she earned $45,000 (that’s about $22/hr.) Probably lots of O.T included.
    Since your mom has good experience, she should earn more.
    Good luck to her.
