Hospitals that offer work while you learn question...

[upchurch]

I'm hoping someone can help me out. I was told from an RN there were certain hospitals (maybe one in Gainsville, GA???)that had a program where you could work while you study to be an RN. You made a lower pay rate of course, but they offered the training and classes. Does anyone know which hospital offers this or a program similar to this? I live in Forsyth County, but will travel if needed. Thanks in advance for any help you could offer.

If you wanna come to Rome, Floyd hospital offers some work-study programs.

One where you can work as a nurse tech after finishing your first year of nursing school, with pretty flexible hours:

And if you have the summer off you can do a paid internship there too:

I can't give you any info on pay. I just started doing clinicals there this week, but I have heard rumors that the nurse tech program pays you the equivalent RN salary for doing nurse tech job. Anyways, something to think about. I'm sure Floyd isn't the only one in north Georgia to have a program like that.
