Hi Everybody...... Ok I have a question..... it's almost sound like a no brainer...... but you know the saying if it sounds to good to be true then is probably isn't true
The hospital I am interested in working for, once I graduate has a program that allows you to go to nursing school full time.
I would work for the hospital every Sat and Sun 2 12hour shifts and get paid for 36 hrs........as a nurses aide, they would pay my tutition, I would immeadiately start accruing vacation time, be eligible for benefits and 401k. In return I must be a full time nursing student.... and upon graduation and licensing, I would agree to work for them for 2 years.
Now, this is the hospital I want to work for when I graduate because it is 1/2 a mile from my house..... it belongs to a pretty large Health Care System in my area, and in all my dealing with them as a patient, mother and now possible employee the staff has been wonderful
I am currently enrolled a a nursing student part time completing my pre-requistes and working full time,,,,, and caring for my 2 kids....and my hubby.. This scenario would of course allow me to finish school in 2 years... instead of 4.....and I could concentrate on school full time.
I really don't know why I can't make a decison.... I am just so nervous about commiting to this program....
Does anybody else know anything about these programs.......what the pro & cons are.......
Your comments and opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Brenda
