Responsibilities
We are currently accepting Nurse Extern applications for Spring/Summer 2025 graduates.
Oklahoma Heart Hospital's paid Nurse Extern Program is a truly unique, hands-on learning opportunity for nursing students prior to their final year of nursing school. The program offers nursing students the opportunity to perform a variety of nursing treatments in a cadiovascular environment, utilize state-of-the-art technology and practice assessment skills under the direction and supervision of an experienced Registered Nurse.
Areas of interest include:
- Cath Lab
- Critical Care
- Emergency Room
- Interventional Unit
- Progressive Coronary Care Unit
- Surgery
Once the Externship has been completed, OHH has the option to retain the Nurse Extern while he/she completes his/her last year of nursing school. After graduation, OHH also encourages a smooth transition from Extern to Intern to RN and pays for a NCLEX Review Course to assist Nurse Interns in preparing for their boards.
Qualifications
Education: Completed one (1) year of RN clinicals at an accredited school of nursing. Eligible applicants should be going in to the final year of nursing program.
Licensure/Certification: Current BLS certification required.
As part of our nursing team, you are empowered to work collaboratively with our physicians and other caregivers, and play an integral role in setting the standard for excellence in patient care. With low, fixed nurse-to-patient ratios, our nursing team has time to get to know their patients and their families while providing the highest quality, safe, patient-focused care. Patient rooms are fully stocked with all necessary supplies and arranged in a circular, pod layout around each nursing station to streamline patient care and save our nursing team time.
