Advise needed

Published

HI

I am considering a nursing assistant training job at a nursing home. THey do not pay much as you learn but after you are certified starting pay is 10/hr with full benefits after 90 days. Then after a year they offer a nursing scholorship and you can work weekends. I have 2 kids one still in preschool. Not sure if I should take it work towards the scholorship for next fall? I currently work part time as a vet asst 2-7 four days a week and Sat mornings and make alot more per hour. So I would be getting less per hour but more hours so that might be close to what I bring home. But I would do it for the scholorship. I am not sure if I should put my family thru this or wait until my youngest is in school full time. I could also work 3rd shift make more money, be able to take them and pick them up at school and work while they sleep. ANd I sleep while they are at school. While working towards my nursing degree. Any advise would be helpful

Thanks:uhoh21:
