Effingham, IL — HSHS St. Anthony’s Memorial Hospital recently welcomed a class of nine student nurse interns this summer to the hospital. The summer nurse intern program is designed for nursing students with at least one clinical semester completed. This paid internship allows the student to get real-life experience as a nurse by shadowing nurses in all areas of the hospital to help give them a better idea where they want to work once they graduate.
