School Membership Benefits

Why Schools Should Become a Clinical Partner

SCHOOLS BENEFIT FROM RECORDING THEIR STUDENT'S CLINICAL PROGRESS DIGITALLY

School administrators have an enormous task to manage student's clinical documentation. Stacks and stacks of paper is usually the picture see in every clinical supervisor's desk. Clinical Partners alleviates the stacks of paper.  Clinical Partners provides tools that many schools don't that can truly improve the lives of clinical students, not only during their education program, but afterwards when they are seeking employment. Here's how:

Reduce Error.  When schools don't have Clinical Partners, error can happen.  And error does happen.  School errors are very common.  It's not because they schools don't care.  Most schools are very well intentioned.  Often, errors happen because schools are using a dinosaur system of papers with manual input by humans, rather than a digital record keeping system like Clinical Partners. Tracking paper is really hard with a large number of students. It can be really hard even with a small number of students. 

 

Financial Aid.  Good intentioned schools can have errors that can be very costly and even affect student's financial aid.  When schools have Clinical Partners, they have partners that care immensely about their school's ability to manage student's progress, not just their paperwork.  Standard Academic Progress requires establishing and maintaining hundreds of pages of records for students.  Clinical Partners makes it easier and helps to establish organized systems for SAP that may even relieve some of the burden and stress for staff.

Resume Building.  With Clinical Partners, students have a permanent record of their clinical experiences including case studies, clinical hours, clinical logs, reports and grades that show that they participated in clinical experiences. Their membership is only charged for the time they are in school. After their schooling ends, Clinical Partners stores student clinical records permanently. Graduates can then use the CLINICAL RESUME link to send to prospective employers. Generally, in an interview, the interviewer asks the new graduate about their clinical experience. Students will have a full record of their clinical activities as well as the locations, equipment used, interesting case studies, hours achieved and even attendance.

Job Placement.  In today's economy, trying to get employment doors to open can be a great challenge. Clinical Partner's is not a job placement organization, however, students that participate in Clinical Partners are part of a growing network of clinical students, practices and educational facilities. As students embark upon seeking employment, they have access to thousands of connections that can lead to potential employers through our Grapevine Network. Clinical Partners believes it's not just what you know, it's who you know, and we are happy to make introductions on student's behalf.

Clinical Guidance.  Students entering a medical arena often don't have experience in the field of medicine. When students have a question about their experience, Clinical Partners has an answer from the experts. Clinical Partners team of educators, administrators, regulators and clinicians provide complimentary guidance and tools for Clinical Partner's members. No question is too small or too great. When students need to have their questions answered, Clinical Partners can help. Our Clinical Guidance is always available to members. Students can actively participate in growing responses at Frequently Asked Questions.
