Nurse Paycheck Budget Spreadsheet: Shift Income Planner, RN Salary Tracker (Google Sheets)

Finally, a budget that understands how nurses actually get paid. 🩺

Your paycheck is never just base pay. Night differentials, weekend premiums, overtime, charge-nurse pay, holiday pay, and PRN shifts can add $5,000–$15,000 to your income every year — but they change with every single paycheck. The EasyVault Nurse Paycheck Budget is built for that reality, with a Shift Income Calculator that computes each check's true gross, a smart budget-on-base-pay strategy, a student loan tracker, and 9 charts across 10 tabs — all in a calm scrub-teal design.

✦ THE PROBLEM THIS SOLVES:
A budget based only on your base salary misses a huge chunk of your real income — and leaves you guessing. Some pay periods have big differentials and overtime; others get cut by low census. This planner separates your steady base pay from your variable extras, so you budget your bills on what's guaranteed and turn every extra shift into savings and debt payoff.
