Does your hospital offer nursing educational benefits i.e. pay for attending conferences, etc?

Dear Sjbrott,

No, our institution doesn`t pay for attending conferences...

If a Nurse is interested in attending this or that continuing education, the hospital will pay for the cost`s, or at least a big part of the cost`s, but you won`t get payed just for attending a conference...

Well, it depends. If a RN is presenting research on a congress, costs are funded by travel grants from independent funds, an academic institution, or the hospital etc.

Travels to national congresses or courses are paid by the hospitals, but only if the congress/course and the associated expenses have been approved by the head of the department.
