I am currently a junior in a BSN program with plans to become an NP in the future. I am very interested in the emergency and trauma aspect of nursing. I came across a summer neurophysiology internship application that focuses on intraoperative monitoring in a trauma unit. The internship opportunity would involve clinical experiences, lectures and training (similar to CNIM principles). It is open to students majoring in neuroscience, kinesiology, biology or a related field. This topic seems very interesting to me, but I was wondering if it would not be focused enough on 'nursing' or for nursing students. Would I be better off just working as a nursing assistant or would this opportunity still be beneficial to my professional development?
I appreciate any thoughts on the matter :) thanks!
