Nurse Shortage Assistance Program
Pennsylvania’s Nurse Shortage Assistance Program is a proposed $5 million initiative aimed at addressing the state’s nursing shortage.
It provides funding to hospitals that partner with nursing schools to cover tuition costs for students who commit to working in Pennsylvania hospitals for at least three years after graduation.
The program seeks to increase nurse retention and expand the pipeline of professionals entering the field.
