Salary Survey and Salary Calculator

Thousands of perioperative nursing professionals, including both AORN members and non-members, responded to the annual AORN Salary Survey, which assesses the status of perioperative nursing compensation in the United States. This market research study tracks compensation changes and seeks to identify factors that influence how much perioperative nurses are paid. The survey also addresses the perioperative nursing shortage and focuses on perceived changes in staffing-related aspects of the perioperative nursing workplace during the last three years.

The survey gathers data from all over U.S., from perioperative professionals with varying education, experience and certification levels in many different facility settings. Evaluation of the data results also produced the Salary Calculator (available to AORN members only) for measuring your own salary prospects.
