Clinical Experiences

At Lakeview College of Nursing, students gain valuable hands-on experience in a variety of healthcare settings. Most clinical placements are within a 70-mile radius of our campus, though some may be arranged outside the local community.

Our students frequently train at leading sites such as:

• Carle Hospital
• OSF (Danville & Urbana)
• The Pavilion
• County Health Departments
• Local nursing homes
• Local school districts

These partnerships give students the opportunity to apply classroom knowledge in real-world environments while making a meaningful impact on the communities they serve.

Transportation

Students are responsible for arranging their own transportation to and from the clinical sites. Carpooling is encouraged whenever possible -- students may use the Carpool Finder on the SONIS bulletin board to connect with others. 

Students must maintain adequate car insurance coverage. For liability reasons, students may not transport clients, and faculty/staff may not transport students unless all passengers have signed a waiver of College liability.
