  • Click Students from your left navigation menu

  • Click Import from spreadsheet from the submenu

The system will recognize if a resident you're trying to add has already created a Clinician Nexus account. Upload your entire list of residents, and only new residents will be notified about creating their accounts.


Schedule Residents

To schedule residents, click +Schedule students on your left navigation menu.

  • Select the organization

  • Choose the opportunity

  • If the clinical site enables, you can add specific dates and times for the resident to be scheduled, in addition to the general date range

  • Select the resident(s) to be scheduled

  • Add any additional comments and click Submit


Monitoring Onboarding Progress

You can monitor your residents' onboarding progress from your rotations page.

To monitor general progress and complete any steps required of you:

  • Click Rotations on your left menu.

  • Here, you will see your residents' rotations displayed. You can see how rotations are progressing, based on their status. Click into each rotation to view details and onboarding steps.

If you see a rotation with a circular orange badge in the top right corner, there are one or more steps you can complete.

You can also filter to view only rotations with steps for you to complete:

  • Click + Add filter button.

  • Click Has steps I can complete from the dropdown list.

  • To view and/or complete these steps, click on the rotation.

  • Scroll to the bottom of the rotation details window to view onboarding steps. The three step types are file uploads, forms and checkbox.

  • Under the Onboarding steps section, each step specifies who has the ability to complete it:

Once all onboarding steps are complete, the rotation will move into Ready status, indicating that everything is complete, and the resident is ready for the first day of their rotation.
