Clinician Nexus offers several opportunities to collect and review important documentation prior to or after a student's rotation at your site. You're able to add steps that are required based on the needs of your site.

Here's an overview of each type, and what information may be useful to collect at each point.

Application Steps:
Creating application steps can be helpful in supporting the student requested workflow. Steps can be created to collect information you need in order to decide whether or not to accept a student into a rotation.

Onboarding Steps:
​Onboarding steps are tasks or documents that need to be completed and/or uploaded into Clinician Nexus before a student arrives on site. There are several configuration options, depending on who needs to complete the task, whether it be the student, faculty, school coordinator or clinical site.

Active Steps:

Active steps are tasks, or documents, requiring completion in Clinician Nexus while a rotation is taking place at your site. This may include any step you as the site coordinator need to complete during a rotation. There are several configuration options, depending on who needs to complete the task, whether it be the student, faculty, school coordinator or clinical site.

Offboarding Steps:
​Offboarding steps are tasks or documents that need to be completed and/or uploaded into Clinician Nexus after a student's rotation is complete. This is often a step used to collect evaluation information about the site, rotation, and/or preceptor.

Or duplicate the configurations of an existing opportunity window by using the duplicate icon next to the red trashcan icon- and adjust the name and details as needed.

Set the workflow type to student requested by togging on Post to search page.

Adjust the student discipline, date range, and other criteria to fit your organization's availability to accept student applications in a given service area. Elective rotation settings are also available for accepting or blocking students from certain schools from applying to elective rotations at your facility.

Once a student has submitted a request for an elective rotation at your site, you'll be able to review their application, steps completed, date range requested, and other notes. From there, you'll have the ability to accept, close, or add the rotation to a waitlist.

When you log into the Clinician Nexus platform, you'll automatically be directed to the Rotations page. This view is meant to give you an overview of where each student rotation is in the process and also draws your attention to what tasks you may need to complete:

From the left navigation menu, click Reports. Then click the Students tab from the left submenu. On this page, you can filter, run, and export a list of dates included in each application and onboarding step you've set up.

Clicking Application steps / Onboarding steps from the Reports submenu will show what steps have or haven't been completed for each student, based on the criteria you select. This way you can determine what step(s) a student may be missing, and reach out to them if their rotation is coming up.
