Our externship program is loosely structured to accommodate each student’s needs, and you can rotate in two- to eight-week blocks, according to your school requirements and schedule. During your three 12-hour weekly shifts, you will shadow your assigned mentor, assist with patient triage, attend ICU rounds, contribute to patient care decisions, and scrub into procedures and surgeries. Shifts will focus on inpatient ICU care or outpatient triage and surgery.
