Clinical Residency: NURS 5726

UMN SANE: A Trauma-Informed Community of Practice is excited to partner with the Regions SANE Program to offer a clinical residency course experience. The course is offered through the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities School of Nursing and is designed to provide SANE nurses with supported clinical experience. The Regions SANE Program serves persons 13 years and older.

Course Format

  • Participants commit to staying in the Twin Cities area (Minneapolis and St. Paul, MN) for 5-10 calendar days. Participants will be on-call for the duration of their on-site time, with a respite period after a case. On-site days may be separated into 2 blocks if needed (for example, 2 weekends of 3 days each). Reimbursement for travel and lodging is available.

  • When Regions SANE preceptors receive a call to attend a case, the participant will be notified to meet the preceptor at the case location and work on the case alongside the preceptor.

  • Participants will work with multiple preceptors and may attend cases in multiple locations.

  • Due to the nature of sexaul assault response work, the number of cases each participant will attend is unknown and may vary.

  • Participants will complete supplemental coursework before, during, and after the clinical experience including self-assessment, case reflection assignments, trauma-informed care readings, and case and clinical experience debrief.
