The summer of 2012 marks the fourth year of the Via West
Summer Nurse Internship Program that began with a generous grant from The
Valley Foundation. Over the course of 11 weeks, ten nursing students and new
graduate nurses from San Jose State and San Diego State will complete a
community health nursing curriculum focused on the specific needs of children,
teens and adults with developmental and physical disabilities. In addition to
providing an extra layer of care for participants with medical issues, the
internship serves as a mechanism to increase the pool of nurses who are
comfortable and competent meeting the special needs of our population.

Via West is Hiring!!!
Via West Campus is currently hiring counselors, unit
directors, nurses and program staff for scheduled weekend programs that run from
October 2011 through April 2012. We are particularly interested in bringing
onboard students and/or graduates in professional fields, including recreation
therapy, kinesiology, adaptive physical education, special education,
occupational therapy, speech and language pathology, audiology, physical
therapy, child and adolescent development, and nursing.
Via staff members from nursing, occupational therapy,
adaptive physical education, recreation therapy and speech language pathology
are actively involved in these weekend programs, so students will have the
chance to see how professionals provide education and training to our clients.
Staff members are expected to live on campus, receiving room and board,
throughout the weekend. We are a non-smoking facility. Staff members can choose
the weekends they work, and are given first priority for summer positions as
well.
We are holding open houses for potential staff on
Sunday, September 25 from 10A-1P and again on Wednesday, September 28 from 5-8P
at Via West, 13851 Stevens Canyon
Road, Cupertino.
Applicants will learn about the program, tour the campus and have a personal
interview for hiring purposes. If you would like to attend an open house, please
email Sandy Keefe, MSN, RN, Associate
Director, at skeefe@viaservices.org and fill out an
online application at http://viaservices.org/content/camp-costanoan-application.
