Keeping Nurses in Beaufort and Jasper Counties
The South Carolina Nurse Retention Initiative was one of the primary reasons why I was able to remain in Beaufort County after graduating from nursing school. It is a wonderful program and it has helped me in many ways: to provide childcare for my two children, to help me afford housing in this area, and even to help me pay back my student loans.”
