In the social work field? if you work with the elderly I did some networking with a woman years ago who did private case management for the elderly and their families. She had a lot of happy clients. I had never heard of it before I remember finding it really interesting.

No you chose the wrong decade to need a house. Houses are not affordable now even with nice income

Nurses can make that pretty easy with over time in Baltimore. I currently make 87k as a school nurse with 14yrs experience plus 4.5k for summer school.
A lot of jobs like social security etc are based on years of experience.

just came here to say that I’m a social worker at too manfattan hospital working full time (40 hours) with lots of seniority and I make about the same as you which is to say that for your role you are actually being ver well compensated
I personally have an excellent benefits package worth probably an additional 20k-30k so im very satisfied. plus of course the work is enjoyable and rewarding

I will actually disagree with you. I think you are getting under paid.
I have a dual NY and NJ LSMW license, and I was offered recently a hospital SW job in Staten Island, that started at $90,000 with loads of benefits. I did not take the job, due to the commute.
And, the job offer was for a Mid level position as I am not brand new to the field.

I don’t think I am. I don’t pay a cent toward our insurance which includes everything (including orthodontics) Not one cent. no copays no premiums. I have child care voucher, day camp voucher, and sleep away camp voucher, aftercare voucher. I have 5 weeks PTO plus additional 12 sick days a year. so that’s 7.5 weeks of PTO between vacation and sick (the latter I can use for sick kids as well as appts) I don’t know what mid level position means. in my hospital there’s patient facing social workers (me) and management who doesn’t see patients (they just manage the social workers) so there’s no mid level. All this combine with a pension and a 20 minute commute makes me feel that I’m well compensated.

Honestly, I don’t think your salary is bad either.
MSW in hemodialysis, 32 hours/week is about 60- 65K plus benefits (which you need to pay into)
Allied healthcare is not a goldmine.

The benefits that you are describing are much better then the ones offered to me. I believe it was 24 days of PTO, including sick days. Insurance for health and dental and vison, but there was some monthly cost depending on the plan that you pick. I don't know if it was a great plan, did not get that far.... Pension after 20 years I believe. No child care vouchers, but there was a $2,500 tuition reimbursement a year.
Mid level meant that they were looking for a SW with 2-5 years of healthcare experience. Entry jobs were lower paying and offered to new SW's. Not sure the caseload difference.
I got offered from Staten Island University Hospital, EM department.

Thinking of going back into this field after leaving a while ago. Do you have employees working for you or are you a one woman show? How many hours do you work daily?
I didn’t make close to even 100k when I did marketing but it was also more of a side hustle…
