Summer SOAR Nurse Externship

***ALL APPLICATIONS ARE DUE NO LATER THAN FEBRUARY 2, 2025***

Interviews will be completed in January/February.

Through a one-on-one relationship, students are mentored in two clinical areas throughout an 8-week paid summer externship program. Registered Nurse Students who are preparing for their senior year are paired with a mentor during each 4-week session in a clinical area. The extern will gain hands-on experience by assisting with routine patient care and practicing a variety of clinical nursing skills in the ambulatory setting and/or inpatient care setting. In addition, externs will have the opportunity to attend weekly professional development conferences. This program fosters a positive transition from student to clinical aiming to increase confidence and enhance practice readiness.

Must possess skills to perform clinical services relating to the care, cleanliness, safety and comfort of patients of all ages. Will provide quality service under the direct supervision of a Registered Nurse trained in Carilion Clinic's mentorship program.
