ABSN Nursing Clinicals at Baltimore Health Care Facilities
Nursing clinicals are one of the most important components of the Notre Dame of Maryland Accelerated 2nd Degree BSN curriculum because they offer first-hand perspective and experience in delivering safe and effective patient care. Under the supervision of a highly qualified clinical instructor, in our ABSN program, you’ll work with patients and their families in a variety of clinical settings and areas of nursing practice:
- Medical Surgical Nursing
- Advanced Medical Surgical Nursing
- Pediatrics
- Obstetrics
- Psychiatric/Mental Health Nursing
- Community Health
Clinical Placements
Thanks to Notre Dame’s close proximity to some of the region’s most prestigious health care providers, we’ve developed a robust network of practice partners within which our students can hone their clinical judgment. While we can’t guarantee specific clinical placement locations, you can expect to gain valuable real-world experiences at any of the following clinical sites local to the Baltimore metro area:
- Anne Arundel Medical Center
- Franklin Square Hospital
- GBMC
- Howard General Hospital
- Johns Hopkins Bayview
- Johns Hopkins Hospital
- MedStar Good Samaritan Hospital
- MedStar Harbor Hospital
- MedStar Union Hospital
- Mercy Medical Center
- Mt. Washington Pediatric Hospital
- Sinai
- St. Agnes Hospital
- UMMC Midtown Campus
- University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC)
- University of Maryland St. Joseph’s Medical Center
Clinical placements also offer a chance to “try on” different nursing roles and discover which specialties you may be interested in.
Nursing clinicals are also a great time to network with other healthcare professionals and learn more about the day-to-day duties of a nurse. We often tell students to treat their clinical placements like a long job interview—after all, you’ll be getting great experience working with some of the best medical professionals in the area.
There’s no better place to complete your clinical rotations than Baltimore—and the NDMU ABSN program prepares you to make the most out of the experience so that you can step confidently into the healthcare field as a practice-ready nurse.
