Er Intern information

What types of tasks and responsibilities can I expect as an ER Intern in a hospital setting?

As an ER Intern, you'll typically assist with patient intake, gather medical histories, help with basic procedures, and support emergency nurses and physicians. You may also observe trauma cases and learn to work efficiently in a fast-paced, high-stress environment. Collaboration with multidisciplinary teams is frequent, offering valuable learning opportunities and exposure to a wide variety of emergency cases. This hands-on experience is crucial for building clinical skills and understanding the workflow of an emergency department.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an ER Intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as an ER Intern, you need a foundational knowledge of emergency medicine, basic life support skills, and enrollment in or completion of a relevant medical or nursing program. Familiarity with electronic health record (EHR) systems, basic diagnostic tools, and protocols for emergency care is typically expected. Strong communication, teamwork, and the ability to stay calm under pressure are crucial soft skills in this high-stakes environment. These skills are vital for providing effective patient care and supporting the fast-paced, collaborative nature of emergency departments.

At United Healthcare, you will join a community-based, multi-specialty organization where you will work with talented peers on a common purpose: improving the quality, cost, and experience of health care.

  • Develop and implement person centered care plans to address needs including management of chronic health conditions, health promotion and wellness, social determinants of health, medication management and member safety in alignment with evidence-based guidelines
  • Partner and collaborate with internal care team, providers, and community resources/partners to implement care plan
  • Provide education and coaching to support member self-management of care needs and lifestyle changes to promote health
  • Support proactive discharge planning and manage/coordinate Care Transition following ER visit, inpatient or Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) admission
  • Advocate for members and families as needed to ensure the member's needs and choices are fully represented and supported by the health care team
  • Attend community fairs and outreach events held during the week or weekend

You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.

Required Qualifications:

  • Currently enrolled in, or recently graduated from, an accredited RN Bachelor's Degree program, with graduation expected within 12 months of the internship start date (before or after)
  • Current Basic Life Support (BLS) certification
  • 1+ years of Clinical Experience
  • Experience with MS Office, including Word, Excel, and Outlook
  • Available to work full-time, 40 hours per week during the duration of the summer internship program (from June 2 - August 7)
