Hospital Training

[elizabethhhs]

I don't know if this is the right section, but I need help!

I currently live in Florida and there is a chain of hospitals near my city that offers a CNA/RN training program. From what I understand they pay you while you train, then you sign a contract stating that you'll work with them for x amount of time.

I'm wondering if anyone knows of similar programs in North Carolina? I've tried to look but I can't really find anything and I don't know what I should even search for.

(For the record, this isn't for me. I'm in college already and pursuing my degree that way, but I'm trying to get my mom on her own feet. She isn't able to go to school and work but she has to be able to pay her bills, too. I thought this was a perfect alternative.)

Thank you!!

Welcome to AN! The state BON should be able to provide a list of approved programs. From there, you may be able to find out if such a program exists. However, in my experience, employers may offer tuition reimbursement for employees who meet certain criteria.
