The VA Black Hills Health Care System provides a wide variety of educational opportunities for current employees as well as future employees, including students, interns and residents in an

array of clinical and administrative careers. IMPORTANT: Due to Federal Regulations, The Black Hills Health Care System is unable to support individuals observing, shadowing, volunteering or

assisting as a volunteer in any type of facility administrative, business or clinical experience or capacity. All individuals seeking practical experience must be sponsored by an existing

affiliate and have completed all required trainings and forms. INSTRUCTIONS TO APPLY FOR PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE AND/OR CLINICAL ROTATION: Before you can begin your clinical experience, your

school's clinical coordinator must ensure that our facility can support your desired rotation dates and is able to provide an educational experience that meets your school's

requirements. This is extremely important particularly when coordinating large groups of students. Your school’s clinical coordinator should contact the appropriate trainee placement

coordinator/s at our facility to get approval and to determine if the department has any unique or special requirements that must be accomplished.
