The Beyond Akeela Nurse Intern works alongside the Beyond Akeela Nurse (RN) to oversee the health and well being of the Beyond Akeela. Under the direction of the Beyond Akeela Nurse, they will build their skills in medication administration, triaging a variety of health situations, and logging treaments. They will work with the Nurse to make recommendations to the Directors on adjustments to camp operations that will improve the global health of the camp community, as needed.
The Nurse Intern and Nurse work under the standing orders and guidance of Beyond Akeela’s Health Care Consultant, who is a licensed Nurse Practitioner, to make decisions on treatment plans for each camper. They are also responsible for checking in on the health of staff members, and helping the Directors ensure that staff are physically and mentally prepared to work.
