Internship Review

How did you hear about/get it? I learned about the internship by calling the human resource dept.
Daily tasks On a daily basis, I was assigned patients on my hospital unit with a nurse that was assigned to precept me. I learned important assessment, time management, and nursing skills specific to ICU nursing; which is where I interned all summer.
Best part of the job? The best part of the job was being able to translate what I learned in nursing school to the clinical setting. My technical skills and confidence improved tremendously when I returned to school for my senior year. I was able to work as an intern while I finished school and was offered a job after I passed the nursing boards.
Worst part of the Job? The parking situation at the medical center are not the best. Most employees have to take a shuttle bus from designated parking garages.
Additional Comments/Advice to others I would absolutely recommend that nursing students take advantage of internships before starting their nursing career. My internship taught me more than I could have learned in clinical time during school and it opened up a job opportunity for me.
