Being a Nurse Intern taught me patience, planning, and prioritization. If I could offer only one piece of advice about nursing school, it would be to get a nursing internship!
Internship hiring happens once a semester. Check out the UNMH Career Center for available positions.
A preceptor must be identified on hire. UNMH will dictate work requirements with your preceptor.
Provide nursing care under the direct supervision of an RN preceptor.
When UNMH HR post the new positions, you will receive an email from Maggie Faber inviting you to apply. Approaching the nurse managers/UBEs directly, phone or e-mail, is a great way to show that you are interested in a position!
You should expect the facility to hold to these standards.
