Student Nurse Associate Job Opportunities at Children’s Hospital of Michigan
The opportunity to work as a Student Nurse Associate (SNA) while attending Nursing school is a chance to grow and expand your nursing knowledge before you transition into the Registered Nurse role. As a student nurse at CHM you would work side-by-side with the Nursing staff, assisting them with nursing practices and procedures, while getting a close up glimpse of what the daily routine of a RN on the unit is like. Being a SNA is beneficial because it helps provide a smoother transition into the nursing role, especially if you end up becoming a RN on the same unit. If you are interested in working as a nurse at CHM, I highly recommend applying for a SNA position because this experience will better prepare you for what it’s like to work in a Pediatric, Family Centered Care environment.
Eligibility
To be eligible for consideration, applicant must have graduated from high school or have a GED. You must also be enrolled in an accredited nursing program and have completed at least 2 clinical rotations, with one being in a medical/surgical environment.
