An externship experience at an NVA hospital will give students the unique opportunity to understand the day-to-day operations of the practice, and to gain valuable hands‑on clinical experience.

In addition to practicing clinical skills, student externs will have the opportunity to practice communication skills with the medical team, support staff, and clients.
