Pay it Forward with a Career in Nursing
Monday, September 28, 2009 at 2:10PM An Evanston, IN health-care company and two local colleges, Extended Care Clinical LLC, Wilbur Wright College in Chicago and Everest College in northwest Indiana, have put together a program that offers free nursing school education and job after for those currently unemployed. This initiative known as the “Pay it Forward” program aims to help those out of work while also looking to fill the ever-increasing nursing positions available.
Qualified candidates are to receive a 120-hour training course and those who pass can become certified nursing assistants. They would also be guaranteed employment at one of Extended Care Clinical's 25 facilities in the Chicago area and northwest Indiana while they're in school, Brockman said.

Then, participants will be enrolled in the more rigorous training to become a licensed practical nurse, provided they agree to work for Extended Care Clinical for at least two years after completing their degree.
The cost of nursing school tuition and course materials, estimated at more than $7,000 per student, would be covered by the colleges and Extended Care Clinical.
