I want to start a nursing career in a work while you earn type program as I have a 3yr old son to raise as well, are there any such programs available in dallas/garland area such as with Baylor or Parkland? How does an unemployed single mother get started? I am staying with friends and have recently moved here from wyoming so I am clueless as to the best way to get started.

You will not find a certification program that is OJT. You can work in a doc’s office and learn a lot and do a lot, but to work in a hospital as a nurse you must be certified. You go to school and get your certification (day or night classes) then you are eligible for hire. WIth no experience in the medical field you are not likely to find a position in a doc’s office except as receptionist or clerk. From front-office you could work into a back-office position and working in a doc’s office you will have more latitude without a certification than in a hospital.
