I wanted to send a message out to you all who applied for the Student Nurse Externship over the summer. I just received a message that indicated Centra Health will not be conducting their externship this summer due to the restrictions from COVID-19. Centra Health's Chief Nursing Officer, Shelley Harris, did not make this decision lightly. Those that were already hired as an extern were notified by phone.
I hope that you all understand the reason why this decision was made and that you stay safe over the summer.
Best,
Mrs. Yeatts
