Welcome to Undergraduate Medical Education (UME) at NCH!
NCH UME onboards approximately 250 visiting students and observers who are interested in clinical experiences at NCH every year.
We currently coordinate rotations for medical students, physician assistant students, advanced practice registered nurse students, student registered nurse anesthetists, and observers.
UME also assists in the onboarding of visiting residents and fellows. If you are interested in a clinical experience at NCH, please view the policies and procedures listed below.

What is the onboarding process?
Once a learner is approved the rotate at NCH, the onboarding process begins.
The onboarding process starts with scheduling the learner’s rotation and ensuring there is an active affiliation agreement in place between Naples Comprehensive Health and the learner’s home institution. Once the rotation is scheduled, required paperwork is gathered before the learner is added to our system and scheduled for EMR training. A badge and HealthStream account are then created for the learner. Finally, an email is sent to the learner with reporting instruction. Learners complete EMR training and a mask fit test on the first day of their rotation.
