RN-BS Experiential Learning Hour (Service Learning Hour) Placement Information

Tip

Thank you for submitting your Experiential Learning Form (Service Learning Form) via Qualtrics.

The Clinical Coordinator will be your primary USF College of Nursing contact for securing a placement for you to complete your experiential learning (service learning) hours with your clinical site or hospital. However, this does not necessarily mean the Clinical Coordinator secures your preceptor. This information is determined by the facility, and you can find more details below in the drop downs.

  • Step 1 - Navigate to the appropriate facility for which the USF Clinical Coordinator has designated your placement for NUR4828C Foundations of Healthcare Leadership and Management will take place.
  • Step 2 - Complete all requirements listed under that facility’s drop down as soon as possible to secure a preceptor and your placement for the semester.
  • Step 3 - Review additional important information by clicking the green heading below the icons to answer any questions about preceptor guidelines, Castle Branch requirements, or contacting your Academic Advisor.

(warning) Important to note: You will need to wear a Lab coat & your USF Student ID badge whenever you are within the hospital or facility for your NUR4828C practicum hours.
