SR Print(0) ID 1189768035 T1 Negotiating a Salary T2 Successful Transition to Practice: A Guide for the New Nurse Practitioner, 1e YR 2021 FD 2021 PB McGraw Hill PP New York, NY SN 9781260452372 LK apn.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1189768035 RD 2024/04/20 AB Salary negotiation is often another first for the new NP. As an RN, for the most part, your salary was fixed with limited or no negotiation. Similar to discussing your contract, discussing your salary is another area that brings discomfort to all parties involved. This is an area that you should do some research in prior to your discussion. The American Association of Nurse Practitioners1 website is an excellent source of downloadable information regarding employment considerations. Advance for NPs and PAs2 also provides salary information collected through their annual survey as well as employment strategy information. In your new position you will be considered as a generator of revenue. The NPs should always remain aware of how much revenue they generate in relation to the salary that is being requested. You also want to be aware of what your expenses to the practice will be as well. You want to be sure your expenses are worth the benefit. Or that at least your benefit to your employer outweighs your expenses.
