Students must complete all required clinical hours, however, adjustments to the hourly breakdown may be adjusted based upon previous experience. For example, an emergency department RN that completes a paramedic program may have emergency department hours adjusted into other areas of the hospital or into field internship hours. Students will however complete all in-hospital skills and assessment requirements. Students may request this through the clinical coordinator and must be approved by the program manager and medical director.
