Yes. Some U.S. hospitals and healthcare facilities sponsor nurses for green cards through employment-based pathways like EB-3. For registered nurses, some roles may also qualify under Schedule A, which can make the process more direct compared to roles that require PERM labor certification.
However, sponsorship is not automatic. It usually depends on the specific job opening, facility, location, candidate’s license and experience, and current hiring needs. That means a hospital may sponsor nurses for one role or location, but not for every opening.
Below are examples of large healthcare systems nurses often research when looking for sponsorship opportunities. These names can be a helpful starting point, but they should not be treated as a guaranteed sponsorship list.
One of the largest healthcare systems in the U.S., with many hospital-based nursing roles across different states. Check each posting for sponsorship or immigration support language.
A large faith-based healthcare system with facilities in multiple states. Sponsorship availability may vary depending on the role, location, and facility need.
A major academic medical center and health system with specialized nursing and clinical roles. Sponsorship may depend on department, specialty, and hiring demand.
A large hospital system known for clinical and specialty care. Nurses should review each role carefully to see whether sponsorship is mentioned or considered.
A national healthcare system with facilities across many regions. Sponsorship opportunities may differ by state, facility, and current workforce needs.
A large healthcare services company with hospitals and outpatient facilities in different markets. Sponsorship may depend on the specific facility and role.
A multi-state healthcare system with hospital and long-term care opportunities. Review the exact job posting since requirements can vary by location.
A large health system with hospital-based and clinical roles, especially in Pennsylvania and surrounding areas. Sponsorship availability can vary by job and department.
A major Texas-based healthcare system with RN and clinical roles across its network. Check each posting carefully because sponsorship is not guaranteed for every opening.
Teaching hospitals may offer sponsorship for certain hard-to-fill or specialized roles. Opportunities can vary widely by state, department, and role type.
The most important thing is not just finding a hospital name. It is finding an active job opening where green card sponsorship may actually be available.

Finding a hospital that sponsors green cards is helpful, but the next step is finding an open role where sponsorship may actually be available.
Flint works with U.S. healthcare employers that may offer green card sponsorship for qualified nurses and healthcare workers. These are job-first opportunities, which means the healthcare role comes first, and sponsorship support is connected to the employer, facility, and candidate fit.
Depending on employer needs, available roles may include Registered Nurse, Certified Nursing Assistant, Licensed Practical Nurse, Nursing Assistant, Medical Laboratory Scientist, Dietary Cook, and other healthcare support roles.
Availability can change based on location, hiring needs, licensing, experience, and immigration eligibility. The best next step is to apply so the Flint team can review your background and see whether there may be a match.
The process starts with a real healthcare job opportunity.
First, you apply and share your background. If there may be a fit, Flint reviews your profile against active employer needs. If you are matched and hired, the facility employs you and may sponsor your EB-3 green card.
Flint supports the process behind the scenes, including licensing support, immigration coordination, and relocation assistance of around $3,000 when applicable.
Candidates do not pay upfront program fees through Flint. Sponsorship and support are tied to the employer, the role, and candidate eligibility.
There is no guaranteed green card, but you are not expected to figure everything out alone. Flint works with experienced immigration attorneys who support the process from start to finish.
