Working for hospitals pay nursing expenses?

Published

A classmate of mine told me that if one worked at a hospita, that hospital would reimburse nursing tuition. Is this true? if so, how does one get into it without being an RN first?

I don't work at a hospital, but I work at a Pharmaceutical Company and yes, my tuition (including books) is remibursed 100%. It all depends on where you work, but I think most hospitals or any company in the pharma field will usually reimburse some portion of your tuition! :D
And what do you do (work as what?) in the pharmacy company? Do you need to take classes before you can work for them?

No, I am actually an administrative assistant for one of the marketing teams there, but they will pay for any employee to further their career, so it worked out great for me!! :yelclap:

My friend told me even if one was just a janitor in the hospital, they'd still pay for ya. Is that true?

I would certainly think that is true. I don't think it matters what your position is at a company. If they offer tuition reimbursement, you get it. At least that is how it's been for any company I've worked for!! Although this is the first company that offers 100% reimbursement.

The hospital I work at offers $2,000 a year reimbursment for any type of classes. If you are taking classes that lead to a degree for a hard to hire position then they will reimburse $5,000 a year if you make a commitment to work for them after you graduate. I think for every $5,000 they reimburse you have to commit to a year.

So they dpn't take into account your current finacial situation like FAFSA, so long as you promise them a certain amount of years of service?
