Join the Providence Health System in Alaska nursing team and qualify for the Nursing Education Loan Repayment Program. Although you will not find us on the eligibility listing, we are considered an Eligible Health Facility. The facility listing is updated only yearly, so Providence will not appear on the list until next year.
The Nursing Education Loan Repayment Program (NELRP) offers registered nurses substantial assistance to repay educational loans in exchange for service in eligible facilities located in areas experiencing a shortage of nurses. The 2002 Application will be available April 17 and due June 14.
The goals of the program are to assist in the recruitment and retention of professional nurses dedicated to providing health care to underserved populations and to provide an opportunity for nurses to consider a career in America’s nursing underserved areas. All participants must enter into a Contract agreeing to provide full-time employment in an approved eligible health facility for 2 or 3 years. In return, the program will pay 60 percent of the participant’s total qualifying loan balance for 2 years or 85 percent of the participant’s total qualifying loan balance for 3 years.
