At Inova Alexandria Hospital, I had the opportunity to work as a Nurse Extern alongside an RN and gain hands-on experience with patients on an Intermediate Care Unit. This experience allowed for an in-depth exploration of the profession I will soon enter into, and allowed me to gain not only clinical knowledge but experience in interacting with patients and family members. I got to assist in clinical skills and learn effective time management practices, as I worked 12-hour shifts with an RN 3 days a week. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience as a Nurse Extern
