Is there a big one? Or is it that there are what, like 10 types of things called nurse now? I'm asking earnestly, not making an accusation.

Ten years ago in a LCOL area, I knew an RN making about that, and they were treated like queens. Was able to work 3 12's, be paid for 40 hrs, and given hotel stay for free, among other things...usually including optional unlimited overtime at double pay.

Then I knew some CNAs or LPN(can't remember which) who made much, much less.
