Observational Training
A four week observational training/simulation lab training at a New York hospital.
Visiting nurses may experience observational training at tertiary care hospitals in New York City for approximately a one month period. Nurses may rotate through more than one hospital or more than one specialty area including medical, surgical, OR, emergency room, pediatrics, OB/GYN, and critical care.
Each experience will be constructed to enhance the skill set of the visiting nurses. Participating nurses in American Health observer ships will also receive hands-on experience in simulation labs designed to mimic clinical locations.
Nursing Leadership
American Health has developed a program which combines clinical observational training with nursing leadership training. This allows visiting Nursing Managers to return with clinical and management ideas and experience.
Hospital Management and Leadership
For nursing administrators, American Health provides hospital management and leadership and intense exposure to a large US healthcare system.
In partnership with a 6-hospital health system in New York City, American Health has developed a unique one week program for medical staff and nursing leadership who wish to experience how a US system is implementing quality goals and focusing on teamwork throughout its hospitals, from community hospitals to a large tertiary care facility and research tower.
The visiting leaders will meet with senior medical and hospital management with the goal of returning with ideas and knowledge as to enhancement of teamwork, quality and healthcare system operations. Additional time can be scheduled to focus on academic and research programs if desired.
