The Los Angeles County Hospitals Nurse Attendant Talent Pipeline is a partnership between the LA County Department of Health Services (DHS), the LA County Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO), and the LA County Department of Public Social Services (DPSS). The talent pipeline effort aims to connect underrepresented and underserved individuals with an entry point into permanent LA County careers in healthcare at the four LA County Hospitals: Harbor-UCLA, LAC+USC, Olive View Medical Center, and Rancho Los Amigos Rehabilitation Center. Program participants receive no-cost-to-them training, work readiness services, and supportive services to address barriers in participation in the training program. Program participants attain a certificate of participation which enables them to apply for a program-specific County employment job bulletin, Nurse Attendant 1 – DEO Program. Program participants also receive direct case management assistance and supportive services during the employment application and while participating in the Civil Service process.
