Who do I talk to about job shadowing?
I'm a nursing student and I'm trying to figure out where I can shadow people the problem is I want to be a flight nurse and I know that the opportunities to ride along with them are very very limited, but I really want to do it! So if anyone has info on where I can shadow that would b awesome I'm from the Greenwood Indiana area and I go to Huntington University so anywhere around either of those areas would work I was thinking about one in Indianapolis St. Vincents i know they have a helicopter base but I dont know if they would let me or not! thanks!

Nursing is a really awesome vocation, I have met many wonderful nurses in my lifetime, both men and women. My daughter found some really awesome instruction about it on the resource in the box below, and now she is in her first semester of training.

An awesome Idea! Informational interview might be the catch phrase to use. Speak to your University Job placement resources and your mentor/counselor. You've done some research finding one hospital. Broaden that search, look for a job shadow experience in the ER or triage of the hospital and find out who rides the copter and ask them for advice. Ask anyone you meet if they know of someone in or close to this profession. Showing a profound interest and perseverance will get you that ride along. They have to have training missions! Good Luck!!

This is one of the organizations in California called Calstar that does flight nursing. The email address to get a hold of them at would be education@calstar.org
