Prospect Medical Offers Highly Competitive Hiring Incentives to Recruit Nursing Staff and Clinical Specialists to Its 7-Hospital Network in Los Angeles and Orange Counties
LOS ANGELES, April 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Prospect Medical is offering highly competitive hiring incentives to recruit registered nurses, licensed vocational nurses, certified nursing assistants, clinical laboratory scientists, respiratory therapists, occupational therapists and physical therapists to its comprehensive network of five acute care hospitals and two behavioral health hospitals in Los Angeles and Orange Counties.
The incentives include generous sign-on bonuses, loan forgiveness, tuition reimbursement, and relocation assistance for RNs, LVNs, and CNAs. To take one example, a critical care RN with five years of experience could receive a $25,000 sign-on bonus, up to $50,000 in loan forgiveness over five years, $3,000 annually for tuition reimbursement, and $10,000 in relocation expenses if coming from outside California (or between $5,000 and $10,000 if already in state).
"We are excited to offer these very robust incentives to qualified nurses and clinical specialists who want to help us accomplish our mission of providing high-quality, compassionate medical and behavioral health services in Southern California," said Donald Kreitz, Prospect Medical's Senior Vice President California Hospitals, "We believe these incentives compare very favorably – and, in some cases, even exceed – similar hiring incentives currently being offered by competing hospitals and health systems in our markets."
Prospect Medical hospitals are located in highly diverse, multicultural communities that rely on their services for accessible and affordable health care. The hospitals include Southern California Hospital at Culver City, Hollywood and Van Nuys, Los Angeles Community Hospital at Los Angeles, Norwalk and Bellflower and Foothill Regional Medical Center. Many nurses speak highly of their experience working in the health system's hospitals, including at Southern California Hospital at Culver City (SCH-CC), a 420-bed acute care hospital located on the Westside of Los Angeles.
"Our hospital is a great place to get experience because we work with such a diverse patient population with many different types of cases. This exposure gives a nurse a breadth of experience to prepare them for any specialty," said Melissa, RN, charge nurse, medical-surgical, at SCH-CC.
"Many hospitals don't offer the great learning opportunities that I've had here at Southern California Hospital at Culver City," said Dannielle, RN, emergency department. "The emergency department has allowed me to work with many different types of patients – from chest pain to ankle sprain, from the emergent to the urgent, I get it all. Working alongside other colleagues with varied experience, as well as doctors of many specialties, has allowed me to use critical thinking and hone my skills."
