    I don't think there are any diploma programs at hospitals anymore. Your best bet is to go to your local community college- they can help you get started, and can help you apply for financial aid or student loans.

    The term nurse is very broad; LPN/LVN, ADN [RN 2 yr degree], BSN [RN 4 yr degree], etc...

    Go to your community college to seek out the nursing advisor/counselor. They can explain in-depth, as well as provide course outline for you.

    Good luck!
