The department manager will determine if additional training or supervision up to ninety (90) calendar days is necessary, based on input from the preceptor and/or program coordinator. A nurse intern shall not be given independent patient care assignment prior to completion of his/her internship in each particular unit, unless his/her preceptor/resource RN is available who is not in charge.

If a nurse intern does not successfully complete the program (including any extension thereof), the nurse may be terminated.
