The short version
The one LPN posting we have here lists $37.00 an hour, and a Glassdoor report for this location shows a range topping out near $39.00.
For experienced nursesSources
That $37.00 rate sits above what Arbor posts for LPN work in Glenview, Mountainside, and Tinton Falls, so the Illinois North Shore market is priced differently within the same company.

At clinical, ask what you can help with instead of waiting in the hallway. Check with your instructor before trying an unfamiliar skill.
