Title: Inflation Outpaces Rise in Salaries for Nurses

Citation Type: Miscellaneous

Publication Year: 2022

Abstract: Rising inflation in the past year has eroded some of the recent gains nurses in the United States have made in their salaries, according to a study carried out by Simple Nursing. Pay for nursing went up only 1.3% over the past year, while inflation has surged 4.7%. This followed a period in which there was a steady rise in real wages for the profession – between 2012 and 2021 salaries for nurses went up by 27% in the U.S. to more than $76,000, including a 4.2% increase during the first year of the coronavirus pandemic.
