8. Each semester from now until graduation, the Clinical Placement Coordinator at your campus will send you a site request form via email 3-6 months in advance of the semester, fill out completely and return via email • Use the mapping tool (see instructions in slide #9) to identify sites that align with your rotation requirements to help you in making site requests • You CANNOT request to be placed at a location where you are employed. You can request placement within the organization, but not in the specific department where you work – for ex: you work at SHMC PEDS and can request to be placed at SHMC NEURO • Please read the instructions carefully, and submit the completed site request form back to your placement coordinator via email as soon as you are able.  Your clinical placement coordinator cannot begin to search for placement for you until this form has been submitted back to them. • It is your responsibility to submit this form back in a timely manner.  Students who submit the form within 1-2 months before the rotations start run the risk of not being able to obtain placement.

9. Using the Mapping Tool to Identify Clinical Sites to Request The MAPPING TOOL is very useful in identifying appropriate sites to request for upcoming rotations. It can be found at:https://nur-apps.spokane.wsu.edu/NEIW/Map/ ***NOTE: Due to the competitive placement climate, it may be necessary for you to travel for Clinical Rotations Back to Menu

10. Using the Mapping Tool (cont.) When you get to the home page, enter your home address in the ‘I am looking for sites near’. Select the radius from your home within which you want to search In 'Patient Care Focus contains' field, enter a key word to help you locate sites specific to your rotation needs.  For example: PMHNP students will first need placement in a mental health setting that provides individual and group counseling services.  Entering 'mental' in this field will pull in all sites within the radius you chose that offer mental health services.  From there, you can see a list of which mental health services they offer. FNP students taking NURS514 will need placement in a family practice setting.  Entering 'family' into this field will pull in all sites with the filters you chose that offer family practice services. When you later take NURS540/595 internship courses, you may wish to do some specialty rotations. Putting a keyword in this field for the specialty you are interested in will help you locate sites offering those services. i.e. Putting ‘derm’ in the patient care focus field will help you find dermatology sites. Clicking 'filter sites' will then show you results based on the filters you chose.  They will show in a list, and will also show on the map.  Hovering your cursor over each one on the map will pop up information about individual sites.

11. REQUESTING CLINICAL SITES Tips From Students Who Have Been There • Get recommendations for clinical sites from a mentor, faculty, or from students in a previous cohort • Participate in a Facebook group with your cohort to share ideas and feedback about clinical sites (Click to advance to next slide throughout this presentation) Back to Menu

12. ONBOARDING • Some clinical sites have requirements above and beyond the WSU Grad Student Passport. • In addition to ensuring that your passport is up to date at all times, it is VERY important that you complete all additional onboarding requirements that each of your clinical sites require BEFORE starting your rotation. Your clinical placement coordinator will assist you with this process. • If you have an out of state placement, you will need to have licensure in that state and upload out of state licensure documentation to E*Value.

13. ONBOARDING Tips From Students Who Have Been There • Start early in completing your onboarding-some sites have a lot of additional requirements. • Follow up promptly on communications from clinical sites • Consider staying in the same healthcare organization for more than one semester-it minimizes the time you spend onboarding each semester. • Be flexible-sometimes you have to complete things that aren’t applicable to you.
