BHN Accepting Applications for Summer Nurse Intern Program

COOPERSTOWN—Bassett Healthcare Network is now accepting applications for its 2025 paid summer internship program, available to students studying nursing at locations throughout the network, including Cooperstown, Oneonta, Cobleskill, Little Falls, and Delhi.

These internships feature opportunities for students to gain hands-on experience in direct and indirect patient care, practice everything from assessment skills to procedure assistance, and experience professional life as part of a dynamic team, officials said. Nurse preceptors will work with interns to ensure they receive the most out of their experience, including career counseling, resumé advice, networking opportunities and more.
