The Northwell Health Healthcare Exploration Program at North Shore
University Hospital is designed to expose the undergraduate college
student to various careers in the medical field. Through a balanced
8-week curriculum, students will encounter a broad range of clinical
services at a tertiary care medical center. Based on the student’s
interest, students spend a time shadowing Physicians, Surgeons, Nurses,
and Physician Assistants in the following clinical areas: Neurosciences,
Cardiology, Orthopedics, Emergency Medicine, Perioperative Services,
Pediatrics/Neonatal ICU, Medicine, and Cancer Services.
In addition to
shadowing healthcare providers, students also have the opportunity to
explore the medical education components of healthcare by attending
Grand Rounds. While students do not provide direct patient care, they
are encouraged throughout the process to ask questions, become engaged
with the healthcare providers, and obtain their own mentor during their
internship experience.
