ECC Rolla Nursing Students Begin Clinicals at St. James Veterans Home
East Central College Rolla’s first-year nursing students took a significant step in their healthcare journey during Clinical Orientation Day, held on Sept. 26.
Following this orientation, the students began their clinical rotations on Oct. 1, onsite at the St. James Veterans Home.
Wearing their professional uniforms, these students have officially started their hands-on training, a crucial component of ECC’s nursing program.
Clinicals, conducted at local healthcare facilities like the St. James Veterans Home, provide real-world experience that complements classroom learning and equips students with the skills needed for a successful nursing career.
As they dive into their first semester, these students will gain invaluable experience caring for veterans and applying their knowledge in a real-world setting.
