Being in a department like Anesthesiology, one that is so interconnected within the hospital with a multitude of other services, I had the opportunity to be involved on a variety of projects including quality initiatives, staffing, utilization, and operations. This internship is a very unique experience where I gained an extensive technical knowledge through turning raw data into actionable information to help drive informed decision making for the department. Throughout each of my projects not only did I develop technical skills, but I also was given the opportunity to build relationships and work with faculty, leadership, and my fellow interns to analyze current hospital operations and navigate the numerous challenges facing healthcare today. This internship was truly an indispensable experience that allowed me the space and encouragement to ask questions, pursue my individual interests in healthcare, and to grow not only professionally but also personally.”oals of the department. When I began my internship, I was not aware of the learning experience and overall large impact M500 would have on me and my career. I am extremely fortunate to have gotten the opportunity to work here.”

“The opportunity to be a part of the Department of Anesthesiology was a goal that I had set out to achieve early on in my Master of Health Administration program. I thrive in team driven environments and I instantly knew that this department created a platform that encouraged and motivated just that. In addition, the experience and mentorship that is given throughout this internship is invaluable and is what sets it apart from others. During my time with the department I was encouraged to take on tasks I thought to be unattainable, learned skills that allowed me to grow as a professional, and collaborated with exceptional healthcare leaders. I am proud of the products my M500 team and I have accomplished and I know that as the M500 legacy expands it will continue to create extraordinary leaders in healthcare.”
