I was able to shadow the team as they visited the patient's rooms and through this, I had the opportunity to connect in a deeper level to many aspects of patient care.
What I wish was different
My time was limited because I had to also work and attend school at night, I would have loved to be able to focus only on the internship, thus allowing me to better understand the different areas within this department.
Advice
Maintaining an open mind and absorbing as much information is vital for success in this and any other internship.
