Air Force Reserve - MacDill

Specialties Government

Published

I might be going at this too early but I’m such a planner that I can’t stop myself from researching everything.

 

I just applied to a nursing program at SPC and hoping to find out if I was accepted in June. My Goal is to Join the Air Force Reserves as a nurse and hopefully have my base as MacDill in Tampa. I know this is going to take a while before I finally finish with a BSN but I want to start working on things now. I heard the Officer Program is very competitive. So is there anything I can start doing now to make myself more desirable to the board?

 

Also if any military nurses want to share their daily life that it’s definitely welcome! Another question I have is how does working as an officer and a nurse function together? I always thought Officers were over their own enlisted team but if all the nurses have to be officers then wouldn’t that put the whole team on the same level.

Yes, based on your AFSC they may.  My ascession (sp?) bonus when I commissioned was a choice of $60k or $60k student loan repayment.  Both are taxable.  
currently for 46F the bonus is $105k over Three years.  

Hi there.   I am currently in the process of applying for AF Flight Nurse.  I did my medical part and was approved, not awaiting for Chief Nurse interview.  Any idea where I can find the most current accession / sign on bonus for Flight Nurse AE? Thank you for your time.

@RobdRN I would think your healthcare recruiter could get it for you. I have looked all over the web and I cant find anything posted for the public to see.
