Shadowing, etc?

Hey y'all! I'm a sophomore starting the nursing program in Aug. '09.....and I absolutely CANNOT wait (even though I know it's gonna be a ton of work.) :) I was wondering.......I've seen a fair amount around this site and heard from other people that shadowing is a good idea. I would LOVE to get some sort of job, any kind, in the hospital for the summer, but last year I didn't have any luck finding people that only wanted to hire you for a few months. So the second best (besides volunteering I guess...) -- shadowing for a few days to see closer up what I'll be getting into. Can any of you who've shadowed or have had people shadow you give me some pointers on how to go about setting it up? Do you know who in the hospital I would typically contact to do this sort of thing? (and for those who've had ppl shadow you, do you find it really annoying? :chuckle ) Thanks a lot!

The optimum situation is if you can get someone to make an inquiry for you with one of their associates within a department that you'd be interested in.

I was able to have a individual act as a liaison with a CRNA that they knew to be pretty friendly. It opened a door to shadow them on numerous surgeries. I absolutely fell in love with the job! (Too bad I'm 100 years too old to begin training for it! LOL)
