The Clinical Care Extender Program is designed to give the pre-health students unprecedented access to direct patient care experience. As a Clinical Care Extender, you will become a valuable member of the patient care team in the hospital setting. You will participate in basic patient care tasks such as bathing, changing and feeding patients, and you will have the opportunity to see surgeries performed in the operating rooms and see babies born in Labor & Delivery. The Clinical Care Extender Program is designed to be a rigorous, year-long internship, during which you will learn a lot about the field of health care and a lot about yourself.
