All students at the Tech Center have the option to obtain an internship towards the end of their experience here. The philosophy is that there is invaluable knowledge and experience to be gained working side-by-side with a professional in an actual environment. Instead of internships, the Nursing program students participate in clinicals at local health care centers that gives them hands-on experience and face-to-face patient interaction in specialized settings like elder care, psychiatric care, pediatric care, and acute, adult care. The clinicals vary from location to location, but the students work closely with their nursing instructor and the nursing and medical staff and gain independence and confidence. |
