Infusion Nurse Pay Benchmarks
What other employers are offering infusion nurses right now, by state and by employer type, from the pay ranges on 1,242 open infusion job posts. The Q4 2026 edition of a quarterly Greyfield Data report.
$47/hr
The typical employer's rate for a staff infusion RN. Middle half of employers: $42 to $52. That is $86,000 to $108,000 a year at full time, against a $47 median for all registered nurses.
The typical job post is higher, at $52, because the infusion chains that post the most jobs also pay the most. That is the number a nurse scrolling job boards sees.

Questions employers ask
How much should I pay an infusion nurse?
Across current posts, the typical employer offers staff infusion RNs $47 an hour, and the middle half of employers post between $42 and $52. Start from your state's row below: an offer under its 25th percentile is below what most employers there post.
Do infusion centers pay more than hospitals?
In current posts, infusion providers (center chains, home infusion and specialty pharmacy) post a typical $52 an hour for staff RNs, against $46 at hospitals and health systems hiring for infusion roles.
Is this salary data or job posting data?
Job posting data: the pay ranges employers publish on their own careers pages. For a range we use the midpoint. It shows what employers offer to new hires, which is what you compete against when you hire.
Should PRN infusion nurses be paid more?
Usually a little: PRN posts sit at a typical $47 an hour against $46 for full-time, because PRN roles rarely carry benefits.
How these numbers work
Pay ranges come from open infusion job posts on employers' own careers pages. For each post we take the middle of its range. Every employer counts once: its posts are weighted so a chain that posts the same range dozens of times carries the same weight as a single center. Leadership titles and per-visit home infusion pay are left out of the RN figures, and any figure with fewer than 5 posts or 3 employers is hidden. "Infusion providers" are infusion center chains, home infusion companies and specialty pharmacies; "hospitals" are health systems hiring for infusion roles.
