Once again the PACE Nursing Students will be meeting their curriculum requirements for their community nursing clinical rotation in collaboration with Kendal on Hudson. Due to COVID, they will not be with us in person but instead will be working remotely under the guidance of their professor Laura Miranda. The richest experience for the students will include an opportunity to connect with residents via Zoom, FaceTime and phone calls to have one-on-one conversations about a variety of health and social topics that interest our residents. Interactions do not have to be “educational”, they may also be social and just an opportunity to connect with a bright young and eager student.
It is our hope that the students will also be able to develop and present some educational sessions for residents on various health topics. If you are interested in connecting with a PACE Nursing student, please reach out to Barbara Good in the Resident Care Center to have your name placed on the list. Students will be ready to connect with residents as soon as Tuesday, September 15!
Students are educated about privacy and confidentiality through their coursework and also through a program provided by Kendal at the start of their intern experience but please understand that in order for you to work with the students remotely, they will need to have access to either your email address or phone number. You should feel comfortable with them being able to connect with you directly in order for this to work. Any additional questions you have regarding this can be directed to Barbara in the Resident Care Center
