Graduating with your Licensed Practical Nursing (LPN) degree is an exciting milestone. You want to start your nursing career with an organization that believes in the work that nurses do every day. Being a nurse at Bluestem Health is more than a job. Here, you’re not only caring for patients, but you’re becoming part of a community that values kindness, teamwork, and support.

Built-In Loan Support

At Bluestem Health in Lincoln, Nebraska, we value our nurses, encourage them to grow, and give them the chance to be part of something bigger—helping our community thrive. But we understand the challenges many new nurses face in managing student loan debt while beginning a new role. That’s why we’re investing in our LPNs with forgivable loans tied to a two-year commitment.

New LPN Graduates

Whether you’re interested in a full-time or part-time position, we offer many benefits that make starting your career here the right move. Consider how beneficial a forgivable loan could be for you. If you’ve graduated in the past six months, the Forgivable Loan Program includes:

  • Up to $8,500 per year (up to $17,000 total) through a forgivable loan
  • Full-time or part-time with benefits
  • Two-year commitment, and the loan is forgiven each year upon completion
  • If the agreement is not fulfilled, repayment is required with a 6% penalty + current prime rate (7.5%).
  • After two years, you become eligible for retention bonuses.

We want you to start your nursing journey with financial peace of mind, valuable experience, and our supportive team is invested in your success.

Current LPNs

In addition to the forgivable loan opportunities for new LPN graduates, our program supports all current LPNs. If you’re selected to join our team, you could be eligible for a forgivable loan of $5,000 per year, also tied to a two-year commitment.

  • Each year, $5,000 will be forgiven upon completion.
  • If you leave before completing a year, you will be required to repay the $5,000 plus a 6% penalty and the current prime rate (7.5%)

Investing in You

Through our recruitment and retention programs, we are committed to investing in the future of our LPN workforce. The Forgivable Loan Program will only be offered while funds last and during certain times of the year.
