I have been searching and searching for the past three months for an nursing externship... In Broward County, evidently, these positions are hard to come by. I had finally decided that I probably just needed to work as a nursing assistant or volunteer to get at least some experience and do some networking while I was in school. Externships are the best experience though because they provide you with multiple things: 1. experience in the field 2. exposure to hospital systems (procedures, protocols, charting, etc.) 3. networking 4. a job when you graduate from your program. All great things right? I GOT AN EXTERNSHIP IN A CARDIAC STEPDOWN UNIT AND I'M SO EXCITED!!! I just bought my first pair of non-teal scrubs yesterday, along with my first ekg calipers :D
