Okay, let’s tackle this. So Elizabeth Hardy has a background in nursing and case management. Certified Case Managers typically charge lower rates than healthcare professionals with more extensive experience. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, case managers in the US can earn median salaries of around $54,000 per year. However, considering her nursing background and specific certifications, her hourly rate might be lower. Let’s look at industry benchmarks. Case managers with similar experience might charge $25–$40 per hour. Given her specific skills and location (Garland, Texas), I’ll estimate around $45 per hour.
