Rivercross Hospice provides services for terminally ill patients throughout NE Oklahoma. Our mission is to provide and promote the best quality of care for patients and families facing end-of-life issues and it is our belief that one way we can accomplish this, is by helping our future generation be more educated and trained when it comes to end-of-life care. That is why we love having our interns on site.

Rivercross Hospice strives to offer rewarding internship experiences. Student interns will find that they are treated as part of the interdisciplinary team at RCH. We recognize that student contributions are valuable, and include them in the same meetings and trainings as RCH employees, giving them the opportunity to learn from experienced staff while also providing their own unique insight. All interns with work with the Intern Coordinator on site to develop their specific goals.

RCH offers internship opportunities that meet the needs of students seeking nursing/healthcare, social work/human services, and administrative fields. We are proud of the role we play in training students to experience the healthcare field. RCH considers an internship a success if an intern leaves feeling as if they were treated as a valued, equal part of the RCH team.
