I graduated from RETS ADN program 8/07 and they have a contract with IASIS. You just agree to relocate for 3 yrs and they will give you $7500 relocation assistance and you just commit to work at one of their hospitals and they pay for your schooling. Check out www.iasishealthcare.com It's actually a good program the hospital in Phoenix was willing to pay me with shift diff and my years of LPN exp around $50/hr+. If you are close to finishing the ADN program you don't even need to sign a contract just chose the only hospital in Phoenix that offers loan forgiveness. LOL

Oh in response to the original thread, I am a psych nurse near the Cincinnati area and love it!!! I'm going right back into psych as a RN!!!

St. Luke Hospital on Van Buren in downtown Phoenix. I contacted them earlier this year and they have changed the benefits some because their recruiter isnt there anymore. I heard this week that there is a new recruiter so let me know what the benefits are now. I didnt go because they changed the benefits so I am still here...LOL

Hi! I'm from Marion and I want to go into Psychiatric Nursing. I figure I'll probably end up in Columbus because they have ony a small psych wing at our local hospital.

I'm getting ready to start classes at Northwest State June 2nd but I won't start clinicals until January or August of 2009. I've been accepted in the LPN program and am just waiting to be seated for clinicals. I plan on starting work after graduation and then taking the LPN to RN bridging course Northwest State offers. I'm very excited but very nervous as I've been out of school for 12 years!!:nurse:

edit to add: I forgot to say that my ultimate goal when I'm done with the RN is to work in OB, PEDS, or NICU but we have just a small hospital so I'm not sure how likely that is to happen!
