Interning is a great opportunity for EFSC students to learn what it is like to work out in the field. Our students are at Parrish Medical Center, Cape Canaveral Hospital, Palm Bay Hospital, Holmes Regional Medical Center, Sebastian Hospital and Viera Hospital. Everyone is very nervous and excited to see what it is like to be a sonographer in the real world. We are able to observe a variety of interesting cases and even assist with surgeries. At the same time, we are learning about the emotional aspects of healthcare by dealing with patients with sad diagnoses. Being able to navigate through the ups and downs of the field is an important part of our profession. Sincerely, Nadja Alfonso Jean-Denis Diagnostic Medical Sonography
