Job Shadowing / Observations Postponed
The safety of the children and workforce at Ranken Jordan is our number one priority. To protect our patients and staff from the spread of infection including the COVID-19 coronavirus, we have postponed all Job Shadowing/Observation opportunities at this time.
Job Shadowing Opportunities
The Ranken Jordan Job Shadow Program provides invaluable experiential learning opportunities across most of the practice areas at the hospital. The program offers one-time-only sessions in the department of your choice (depending on availability). Most experiences are scheduled at least 2 weeks out. Program participants will experience Ranken Jordan’s innovative Care Beyond the Bedside model of patient care. This is observation only; no holding, changing or feeding patients.
