Dec 27, 20196 yr Hi! I graduate next December with my BSN. Does anyone know of any residency or training programs for new nurses, that offer free or affordable housing? I will need a place to stay in order to move from mississippi/ Alabama to work.
Dec 27, 20196 yr Author I google searched jobs for new grad nurses. Jobs popped up in several states listed as, '' New grad RN residency program''. The description was training for new grad nurses and a commitment to the facility.

If you move to another area, you could ask recruiter if they know of any low cost housing options, but never have heard of that as part of a package
Dec 29, 20196 yr Some employers will offer relocation assistance. It was $3000 for my residency program. I’ve never heard of one offering free or low cost housing.
Dec 29, 20196 yr Author What facility did you complete your residency program? I really need help with housing. That sounds good! Also, if you could provided me with the names of any other facilities that off that kind of assistance. Thank you!Im sorry for putting my words into the wrong context! I meant relocation assistance. That is what I need.
Dec 29, 20196 yr Indian Health Service offers very low cost housing and they will train new grads. And they have student loan repayment also. They will also move you. You do have to relocate to a reservation though. I just retired from IHS and lived on the Navajo reservation for many years and I loved it.
Dec 29, 20196 yr Author So, I do not have to be a Native American to live on the reservation? I am a Aftrican American, with distant native American ancestry.
Dec 29, 20196 yr Author Can you please provide me with the contact information for their residency program for new nurses?

Dec 29, 20196 yr Author I want to work in the ER as a nurse but the job requires at least one year of experience as a nurse.
Dec 29, 20196 yr You probably have to check back periodically. I haven’t seen many residency programs that have revolving postings. When I applied for residency it was posted 5 months before I graduated.
