A nurse externship is a recent graduate awaiting boards. They are meant to give the nursing student more clinical experience and confidence prior to boards. Nurse externs work under the supervision of an experienced registered nurse serving as coach. Nurse externs may also have the opportunity to take nursing workshops and attend conferences during the extern period. Nurse externships also help new nurses gain exposure to nursing specialties, such as pediatrics or geriatric nursing.

Nurse externs assist the mentor nurse in regular nursing duties.

They usually may not administer medications or begin IVs by themselves, but can assist in these and a number of other procedures.

Nurse externs may also provide or assist with personal patient care such as bathing, oral hygiene, dressing, and changing bed linens.

Different nurse externships have differing requirements, but in general, the nurse extern must currently be enrolled in a nursing program and have completed at least one year or nursing school.

They may be required to have completed at least clinical nursing course prior to the externship.

Nurse externs learn to perform duties common to the departments they are training in, such as triage, resuscitation, general patient care, charting and patient assessment.
