These students will earn clinical credit, outside of the traditional instructor led setting as a Self Regional Healthcare team member. Flexible self-scheduling allows for work and school balance. Enrolled students will become team members who are paid hourly, receive financial incentives, and preferential consideration for Registered Nurse job placement. Contractual agreement of 1 year of service, post RN licensure, is required.
Dedicated Educational Unit [DEU]
With this new and innovative approach to Clinical Nursing Education, we have a partnership of Staff Nurses and Nurse Leaders who have taken Specialized Preceptor Courses to transform the unit’s culture. The environment is fully supportive of nursing students and assisting their professional growth in a Preceptor led environment, all while providing high quality patient care.
Self Scholars
The Self Scholars program extends valuable scholarships to Lander’s most eligible nursing students who excel academically, involve themselves in community initiatives and possess career potential, among other characteristics, each year.
