Christian Health offers a unique opportunity for student nurses to learn valuable skills and gain the confidence necessary to be successful in their nursing careers. The Christian Health Student Nurse Program (SNP) provides an environment that is collaborative and conducive to learning which benefits the patient, the health-care facility, and the nursing profession.

Student Nurse Program (SNP) participants are educated in psychiatric mental health adult and geriatric nursing; which includes nursing assessment and interventions; interdisciplinary care planning; psychiatric and mental-health nursing; and critical-thinking skills. Student nurses participate in classroom orientation before being assigned to clinical practice areas. Once in the clinical area, student nurses will continue to receive education from their work experience, attendance at in-services, and participation in a lecture series, designed specifically for SNP participants. Educational topics include therapeutic communication, suicide risk and interventions, managing medical conditions, fall prevention, individualized interventions/reduction in targeted behaviors and evidence based care for patients with dementia.

Under the supervision of a Registered Nurse, student nurses provide direct patient care to their assigned patients. Student nurses assume responsibility and accountability for patient care as a team member, implement interventions, and assist patients in achieving positive outcomes. Through this program, student nurses, who are paid, have the opportunity to apply newly acquired knowledge and skills in the day-to-day practice of nursing.

Responsibilities include:

Performing data collection and documentation of vital signs, weight, and intake and output.
Performing EKGs and blood-glucose checks.
Providing assistance with activities of daily living i.e. hygienic care, ambulation, meals, and nutrition.
Ensuring a safe patient environment by observing the patient and environment for any potential or actual safety concerns, i.e. answering call lights promptly and responding to fall risk.
Observing for any changes in behavior, mood, or ability.
Collaborating with the registered nurse on any needed updates to the nursing care/treatment plan relative to observed and reported information regarding patient status or condition.
Providing relevant patient/family education under the supervision of the Registered Nurse.

Scheduling requirements:

During the academic year, SNP participants will be offered a flexible schedule.
During the summer, SNP participants will be required to work a minimum of three days per week with an every-other-weekend rotation.
Hours: Must be flexible to rotate between 7am-3pm and 3pm-11pm shifts.

QUALIFICATIONS/REQUIREMENTS

Education and skills required:

Must be enrolled in a accredited program in Nursing.
Successful completion of a competency skills checklist.
Participation in evaluation sessions (written and verbal) upon completion of the SNP.
Attendance at a Crisis Prevention Intervention Course (which results in CPI certification).
