The comparison here is so vague as to be useless. There are 4 categories of nurse, and I can assure you that A) a CNA and RN (let alone an APRN) are very different jobs with different requirements and wage/salary brackets and that B) K-12 wages and requirements also vary drastically.
A CNA (the second most common "nurse") most assuredly does not earn more than the average High School teacher, let alone one with any sort of seniority or departmental/administrative responsibilities. An APRN probably earns more than any blue collar field as it's a decidely high salaried white collar position.
- bluedino 3y agoI have never heard of anyone referring to a CNA (certified nursing assistant) as a 'nurse' What most people mean by 'nurse' is an RN (registered nurse)
- deaddodo 3y ago> I have never heard of anyone referring to a CNA (certified nursing assistant) as a 'nurse' Because you represent 100%, or even a significant minority, of Americans. /s > What most people mean by 'nurse' is an RN (registered nurse) No, what you mean is that what most people encounter are RNs. The people that encounter CNAs almost definitely consider them nurses.
