Our Rising Senior program is an eight (8) week paid mentorship offering an opportunity to expand your clinical knowledge by providing direct patient care, reinforcing nursing skills, and increasing clinical competency in practice.  You will be paired with an RN and work as part of a highly skilled and experienced team to deliver excellent care.

Additional observational experiences in areas of interest will be offered, and you are encouraged to participate in educational offerings and in-services throughout the summer.
