Anyone know of any scholarships being offered by hospitals in exchange for work? I am willing to relocate. Thanks!!!

These are extremely rare, if offered at all. It used to be that there were so few nurses that hospitals had to pay to have them trained. Now, there are so many nurses looking for work that hospitals have their pick. No need for them to pay for school anymore. Your best option is to look into student loans or take a year off and work to save up for school.
Thanks. I actually have arranged to get loans if I cannot get any scholarships. No more breaks for me ;-) Thank for the reply. I have noticed many hospitals ending their programs. I found a few in FL and when I called they said they stopped the programs. My new search will be hospitals hiring new grads or ones with residency programs. :-/

I know that a year ago Flowers Hospital in Dothan,AL offered a program where they sent you to school to become a RN if you gave them 2 years. They offered this to me, but we were moving and I wouldn't be able to complete my requirement.
Oh great thanks! I will look into that one!

i just had a co worker leave our hospital for the atrium medical center in middletown, ohio which is part of premier health partners. she said that after she works for them for a year they will pay for her to get her bsn, she is currently a surgical tech in the or. the hospital is affiliated with miami university ohio, especially the middletown satellite campus. give them a call and see what they have to say. here is their hr info (513) 420-5255 between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. eastern time
Awesome! Thanks!!!
