What kind of nursing programs or medical like does the military offer?


I'm sorta of looking at the millitary as an option I was in the D.E.P program when I was 19 but droped out of it when I found work after 4 years I was laid off.....now I'm interested in what kind of medical programs the military has to offer......before I was in the D.E.P program with the marines but they didn't offer anything medical related

step 1. go to goarmy.com
step 2. choose careers and jobs tab

Each Army medical job has a direct civilian counterpart. Whether in the Army or in civilian life, medical workers are in great demand and opportunities for advancement are excellent in both cases.

91A / 68A Medical Equipment Repairer
91D / 68D Operating Room Specialist
91E /68E Dental Specialist

step 4. email me with your specific questions

You will get the best information from your recruiter on this.

strike One: you have already failed to ship once. Most Branches will be less willing to offer you a second Chance. AF most likely won't even give you the time of day.

Strike 2: to be a Nurse, you must already have a 4 years BSN in hand.

Strike 3: Marines do not have any medical jobs, they use Navy personnel. However, HM is pretty full right now and getting a waiver for your failure to ship 4 years ago may be hard.

The Marines are blessed by having the The Navy Corpsman . Which has to be in just as good as shape as the Marines. The military offers everything you could think of and these men and women deserve our Thanks. I know I was proud to serve with my Medical Bn as a Marine

You can enlist in the Army (you'll need a waiver for your failure to ship, but you will get one)
Enlist as one of the medical MOS' and work on getting your BS degree while you are in the Army. They will pay for it. You even get college credits for your Army training and MOS qualification. Once you get your degree you can go Green to Gold, become an officer if you want... and you can get your nursing stuff. You can continue in school (which they will continue to pay for while you are Active duty) and earn your masters etc. You will likely qualify for a Montgomery GI Bill which will pay for additional school after you get out of the Army... and if you enlist in TX you get the Hazelwood act which is 5 years of school as well. They just changed these to where they can transfer to your children (and maybe spouse, Im not sure) so if you dont use all that school then they can. Anyway... if you are looking for an education and a career in the medical field, the Army is a great way to go. School is free... they use up-to-date technology, and train you well. You get a good resume, awesome experiences, travel, 30 days vacation plus the 10 federal holidays, benefits, etc etc etc. Go for it!!!

Im not even a recruiter... ;)

The Air Force has a really good scholarship for nurses in the ROTC program....you would need to get a waiver for the DEP thing...What branch of service were you going to enlist in?

The US Army has many programs in the medical field. The best answer for you is to contact your local Army Recruiter and schedule an appointment. Your DEP loss will only require a BN waiver than can be taken care of in a day. The biggest issue is going to be you ASVAB results. You must qualify for the job and training must be available.
