Many great RN jobs exist around the nation, but many experts agree the best cities to be a nurse are San Francisco, New York and Boston. Although the cost of living is much higher in these cities and their surrounding metropolitan areas compared to some other areas, the higher wages and wide range of available jobs in nursing more than make up for it. Here are some details about these cities and why nurses flock to them.
Starting from A to Z and this certainly isn't a complete list of schools, but from the research I have gathered at this time it seems to be a nice start: First there is the Alderson Broaddus College, and they are located in the city of Philippi WV. They provide students with a Masters Degree who are interested in majors like: English, History, Math, and Science. There is the Bethany College and there located in the city of Bethany WV. Bethany only offers Arts majors.
The Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation also is providing three Astellas Heart Health Through the Ages Awards that are supported by a charitable donation from Astellas Pharma Global Development, Inc. These awards are designed to help graduate nurse practitioner students or working nurse practitioners provide service, conduct research or participate in educational projects that have to do with heart health and that are completed within two years. Nurse practitioners in the areas are pediatric, adult, and geriatric heart health (one each) are to each receive an award of $3,000 each, with another $1,000 provided to help the project proceed. Additional Nurse Practitioner Healthcare Foundation awards are to be provided through what's known as Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner United Primary Care Outcomes Research awards. This $3,500 award, supported through a grant from Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioners United of Washington State), is to be provided to a working nurse practitioner or nurse midwife or a graduate student in areas in Washington State. The award is intended to help the recipient carry out a two-year research project related to how primary care provided by by nurse practitioners or nurse midwives affects patients.
A university in Hamden, Ct., was provided an $80,000 grant that's to be used as scholarships designed to help students who are considered underrepresented in the field of nursing. The grant was provided by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the American Association of Colleges of Nursing through the RWJF New Careers in Nursing Scholarship Program, according to an announcement from the university. The scholarships - eight of them at $10,000 each - are to be provided to students who participate in the institution's accelerated nursing programs for the 2010-2011 academic year, the announcement noted. Earlier in the year, the university announced plans to open a medical school that would emphasize primary care and global health. The institution expects students would begin classes in the medical school by the fall 2013 or 2014 semester.
