School of Nursing

Our partners in clinical rotations

All PLU pre-licensure and advanced-practice nursing programs are clinically-intensive, to provide the high level of direct patient contact time necessary for superior clinical preparation.  PLU arranges all student clinical rotations and preceptorships.  The PLU School of Nursing contracts with over 100 local hospitals and agencies, thus providing its students a broad exposure to the many nursing care settings that employ graduate-prepared nurses, including large to small urban hospitals; private, state-run as well as military hospitals; and both urban and rural clinics and long-term care facilities.
