Hi, I've just applied for student loan repayment through the Indian health services. They say they will pay 20k per year of service. I already work at a qualified site in Alaska. Has anyone gone through this process? What is the commitment like? Thanks!

Thank you so much for the information!! May I ask what hospital you work for? So far I feel like circulating in ophthalmology and oculoplastics has been great. I’m 7 months pregnant so it’s been a great environment to work. I’d like to spend a least a year here then transition. I’m not sure if I should apply for a period 101 course though. You’re advice about applying to smaller rural hospitals is a great idea! I live in southern Oregon so there are definitely options for that nearby. Did you have to travel to do your periop class?

Hi, I’m a circulating nurse in a private surgery center with four OR’s. We specialize in cataracts, retina, oculoplastics, and facial plastic surgery. I have one year experience and want to transition into a traditional hospital OR. I want to find a great periop 101 program. What suggestions do you all have? I currently make 36$ an hour in Oregon and would love to move up in my hourly wage. Also do you all think it’s going to be hard to get into a periop program without acute care experience? If you have some advice I’d love to know hourly wage, and periop locations. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I am new to the thread but I got accepted into the Ashland summer cohort. PM me if you want to grab a coffee and talk about the program! ~R
