Nursing Programs – Clinical Placement Support
At the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences (USAHS), graduate nursing students receive support with finding and securing a clinical practicum site. A dedicated clinical placement coordinator works with each student to understand their needs and helps connect them with healthcare providers in their community.
Having support with the placement process allows students to focus on preparing for their clinical experience rather than managing the logistics on their own. Faculty and placement staff work with students throughout the process to help make sure they understand what’s needed before their practicum begins.
For working nurses balancing graduate school with their professional and personal responsibilities, this individualized support can make the clinical placement process easier to navigate.
