They are as varied a group as I have ever had. Half of the group are senior students from CSU, Chico. The remainder come from a variety of nursing schools and backgrounds. Among them are 5 nursing refresher students who are hoping to sharpen their acute care skills after having been out of the field for a significant amount of time. Another student will be coming to us after graduating from University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill's School of Nursing. I am looking forward to working with all of them!

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have had the pleasure of working with nursing interns since I became coordinator and director of the RCNP program 16 years ago. Since its inception 42 years ago, the program has helped nursing students launch their careers with confidence and competency. Following are some comments from recent participants in Summer Session 2014.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><i><span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: large;"> </span>“I
absolutely loved being at FRH and my preceptor was the best nurse I have ever
followed! The coordinator was kind and very helpful while placing me and
preparing me for my preceptorship.” </i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><i>“Oroville Hospital was a great training facility.
The patients there really made me coordinate my time. My preceptor was a great
teacher. She always sought out new experiences for me and was always calm
and collected. My preceptorship was a great way to experience what it
feels like to be a nurse! It pushed me to the limits and forced me to
think like a nurse. It’s value is priceless. I feel more comfortable
around all types of patients.”</i></span></div>

month I was there was extremely peaceful. I had an amazing time being
part of a rural community.
