Or Internship For Nurses
What Is a Nurse Intern?
A nurse intern works under a registered nurse, performing a variety of clinical and health-related duties in a hospital or other medical facility. Often, a nurse intern is a current nursing student or someone who is planning to attend nursing school. A job as a nurse intern may improve an application to nursing school and later, a career. Qualifications for this position include a desire to be a nurse and experience with medical and health practices. Preferred skills for this job include verbal and written communication skills and the ability to follow directions.
How to Become a Nurse Intern
The qualifications you need to become a nurse intern include a high school diploma and enrollment in a nursing degree or certificate program. Your duties and responsibilities can vary depending on the details of the internship. Some programs require specific knowledge, so applicants must complete basic nursing courses or learn clinical skills before applying. Other intern programs are only open to students pursuing a bachelor’s of science in nursing degree (BSN). For all nursing internships, you need to know CPR and Basic Lifesaving Skills (BLS), and you must be willing to follow licensed nurses and take directions.
