How Much Do Scrub Nurses That Arent Rn’s Make In New York With An Associates Degree On The Average?
This Question From New York Nursing Schools | The Question Has 1 Answer
First, Nurses in the ORs are virtually always RNs in the US. However, RNs may have an associate or a baccalaureate degree. RNs in the ORs can, but few ever get the opportunity to scrub.
Most of the time the person who scrubs and passes instruments to the surgeon is a surgical technologist. They attend a technical or community college, but usually obtain no degree.
RNs who do scrub, are usually certifed OR nurses who are also certified as RN first assistants, and make much more than the normal OR nurse, or surgical technologist.
In New York City the average salary for an OR nurse is $72,000 per year. The average salary for a surgical technologist in New York City is $46,000 per year.
Hope this is what you are looking for.
