  • What are nurse internship programs? Will participating in an internship benefit your future nursing career? Nurse internship programs are paid, part-time or full-time, temporary employment opportunities. They are designed for nursing students eager to gain knowledge and clinical experience in various health care settings.

    The Independence Blue Cross (IBC) Nursing Internship Program was created to provide internship opportunities for undergraduate nursing students in Pennsylvania. This program offers two distinct internships: a nursing internships at an Independence Blue Cross administration setting and another internship at a community health center clinic. Students who want to gain experience in the health care and insurance administration setting are encouraged to apply for the internship at the Independence Blue Cross.

    Experience in the field of public health can be obtained from the internship conducted at the community health center clinic. To be eligible for either internship, nursing students must attend an accredited nursing program in southeastern Pennsylvania. Both internships have application deadlines, require ten weeks to complete, and are offered during the summer from the beginning of June to the middle of August.

    Nursing schools nationwide rejected more than 67,000 eligible applicants seeking to enroll in professional nursing programs in 2010 compared with more than 41,000 qualified applicants in 2005, 33,000 in 2004 and 18,000 in 2003. Schools attributed the increased rejections in large part to an insufficient number of faculty members, classroom space, and poor economic conditions. The Department of Health and Human Services projects today's vacancy rate in registered nursing positions will grow to 36%, representing more than one million unfilled jobs by 2020.
