Hi All!
I am currently completing my RN-BSN degree online and I need to find a clinical location/partner in the Phoenix area for the fall semester. I moved from New York to Scottsdale in April and my school does not have any affiliations in Arizona. Even though it is not recommended, I was told by my program coordinator that I may be able to complete this requirement at my current place of employment - an endoscopy center. However, I believe it would be in my best interest, and the interest of my coworkers, to not complete my clinical where I am currently working.
I am hoping that someone can offer advice or information on possible locations/partners. According to my clinical placement guide, I need to work with a baccalaureate prepared registered nurse manager/leader/administrator and "excellent clinical partners" have been nurse managers, risk managers or quality assurance (improvement) nurses, administrative supervisors, and program directors. The clinical experience usually only involves 7-10 actual days, so it is not too intensive.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers!
