    In this video I discuss a Navy nurse's salary. The biggest factors regarding a Navy nurse's salary are:
    1) Base pay-based on rank and time in service
    2) BAH- Basic Allowance for Housing- based on where you are stationed, rank, and if you have dependents or not
    3) BAS- Basic Allowance for Subsistence- every officer gets the same amount to help pay for grocery/food costs
    4) Special pays and bonuses- based on nursing specialty.
    Thank you for watching!

    Thanks Estella, right now I'm in nursing school and it hard to remember why I have to keep pushing onward. Your videos keep reminding me why there is a better path in my future.

    Hi , thank you for this video. I have some questions , are you allowed to file taxes like a civilian? And are there protocols needed if at any point you need to leave? Lastly do you have any off days and do you automatically get paid leave once you start or do you earn it after 1 year. Thank you so much

      Hello! Yes, you are allowed, and expected to pay taxes like a civilian. I don’t understand the needing to leave question. Are you talking about getting out of the Navy or taking leave (vacation)? Yes, you will have days off, and you can take leave as it is accrued. You get 2.5 days a month so you don’t have to wait a full year to take leave.

      Every year there is an instruction that comes out. It is called FY21 (or current year) Navy Active Duty Nurse Corps Special Pays Guidance. You can search it on the Internet but it is also in the Navy Nurse Corps Milsuite, which is a website where officers go to get information about Navy programs, instructions, billets, etc.

    In general once all is said and done how do you feel a navy nurse salary compares to a civilian nurse doing a similar job? Are they about equal?

    • @itsestelarojas4713
      @itsestelarojas4713  Год назад +3

      I think you can make a little more as a Navy nurse when you start making rank and you include all the entitlements like housing allowances and bonuses. But, it also depends on where you live as a civilian nurse. Some civilian nurses make more because of where they live.

      If that commitment starts as soon as you go to college, that's not bad. School might be 4-5 years so might not even do a day over 3 yrs of service, that's where you start to get bored anyways. I did 6 in the Marines in the infantry. I'm a CRNA, married to a FNP. But if your commitment starts after college, that is a terrible deal. I will tell you why.
      A RN with a BSN can make 70-120k depending on the state, part time and fulltime, and if we are talking about travel nurses. Travel nurses can make 100-220k a year. getting a job as a RN is easy, they especially right now with the growing population of nurses getting older, as well as the general public and COVID. If it's possible for you to work and go to school. I strongly recommend that. Getting a job as a RN is easier then getting a job as a nurse practitioner because there is oversaturation of NPs in large to even small size cities. Too many NPs. NP schools are just pumping them out like crazy. It might take you 2 yrs to find a job as a NP. You make good money as a RN, you can make 20-50k easy to put yourself thru NP school, then go to the military while getting paid what you deserve and what you're worth. Unless you have some family tradition and you don't care about money, I knew a few people like the Marines.
      It might sound good right now cause you'll be chilling, collecting checks and going to school, no work but later it will brother you when if you got your RN and NP without the military and then you went in the military and you're collecting 20-50k bonuses checks every year you stay in. But years of no incentive, nah. Kind of hard to keep motivated when you know you lost 200k you could of had, plus the higher wages you would made in the civilian world. The military might even leave a bad taste in your mouth knowing that.
      When I looked into it as a CRNA with 6 years of prior service, I was look at 5-6 yrs commitments with 80-90k a year incentives for those 5-6 years, 400-540k in all. As a new grad CRNA you will make 300,000+ a year in the state I live in. Unless I had it in writing O-4 was 100%, was guaranteed to me with a 6 yr contract, no way I would of taken it. Personally.
      If you have the will and means to wait it out and work, don't take a deal that starts after you get a BSN. That is nuts, even predatory and scummy and also make it 8 years, robbery. If the time you are in school all counts towards those 8 years, that not bad at all. I'd take it. Otherwise, grind it out like everyone else does, then get your BSN, get you NP, do your homework with the navy, air force and army, and get paid what you rightly earned. In my opinion.

      @@namenotfound8747 I appreciate your effort in describing what the better option would be but your wording is very confusing and misleading. Are you trying to say it’s better to get your NP first then apply to the military? Or get your BSN then work in the military and have them pay for your graduate schooling?

    • @namenotfound8747
      @namenotfound8747 2 года назад

      @@sickmatic100 What I was trying to say get your BSN and NP first , get the experience in the field you wish to go into and then join the military, this choice is optimal so that you don’t end selling yourself short I. The long run. The more specialized you are in healthcare that also meets the needs of the military, the more you earn in the long run if that is a career you wish to have.
      Another option that this young lady has is she could take the deal they are giving her. And she will end up with a BSN and the military will help her get her NP. In the long run she’ll end up with little no debt from school. However she will end up selling herself short because she’ll end up serving 8 people to 10 years before she’ll be eligible for any bonuses. From reenlisting.
      She has two options. They both have pros and cons.
      If she went the civilian route to get a BSN, unless you get a full free ride, you’ll owe some money. RNs make crappy money the first year but after they can make good money and anywhere you go outside of major cities , you will get a good paying job with just one year of experience. Go the travel nurse route you’ll make well over 150k a year. If you can’t pay off 30k in student debt for your BSN with that, then you have other personal issues. For a general rule of thumb, any NP program that costs over 35k is excessive. And I would not recommend it unless you get a free ride somehow. Same thing, get experience as an NP and the in field that you choose to go into and if you still want to join the military, shop around look at the navy , the army and the Air Force. See who is offering what. And go for it.
