Hi,


     My name is Angie, I have a question.......I am a nursing student and have found a loan repayment program if you sigh a contract to work on an indian reservation for 2 years and you can recieve up to $40,000.00 in loan repayment. I am curious to know if anyone has done this or heard positives or negatives...


Thank you,


Angie in Ohio

I worked with a nurse who did this.  However, most of the time, you're going to be very isolated, because most reservations and their facilities are out in the middle of nowhere.

My uncle is Choctaw Indian and receives most of his care on the reservation.  Dmazment is right....my cousin thought about nursing on the reservation, but it was very isolated.  I would do a little more research, you may enjoy it though.  I love visiting the reservations.

I have seen some nursing journals with info on this subject. I have never done this and do not know much about it at all. There is a need, I do know that.
