Northern Health is accepting applications between October 11 – November 8 for Employed Student Nurse (ESN) positions starting in spring 2023.

The purpose of the Employed Student Nurse Program (ESN) is to provide an opportunity for nursing students to develop their existing skills and competencies, and prepare for entry to practice as a new graduate nurse.
