Nurse Extern (January Cohort)

The goal of the Nurse Extern Program is to support, grow, and develop nursing students during their study at an accredited school of nursing. Rotations on various acute care units provide valuable clinical experience while working flexible hours. The program promotes development of teamwork, critical thinking, and problem resolution skills that are foundational to a long, successful nursing career. In addition to an hourly rate, externs receive a monthly stipend of $500.

Expectations

The nurse extern is required to work a minimum of 36 hours per 6-week schedule. In exchange for the monthly stipend, there is an expectation to continue working for Tanner after graduation and licensure. The contractual agreement is fulfilled by working for Tanner in a full-time nursing position for an equal number of months that the stipend was received.
