Welcome to Your Student Experience at Samaritan!

We are excited to have you join us in our mission to provide our communities with the best health care experience available. Our team is committed to serving our patients with PRIDE – passion, respect, integrity, dedication and excellence. These values are an important part of what makes Samaritan such a wonderful organization, whether you are an employee, volunteer, student or patient.

Before you start, we recommend you complete a few short trainings and orient yourself to some of Samaritan’s available resources. These trainings and resources are located below and should help you to feel better prepared for your student experiences.

Online Orientation

This webpage is not meant to be a complete orientation – your clinical preceptor and school’s faculty will play a central role in that experience, but it will help to get you started. If you have any questions, please reach out to your school’s faculty or to [email protected]. Thank you for all your dedication and hard work, and welcome again to your student clinical experience at Samaritan Health Services!
