    The skilled nursing unit (SNU)
    My clinicals start in 2 weeks and I will be in the skilled nursing unit (SNU) all semester. Can anyone tell me what kind of patients I will be seeing in this unit?

    Skilled Nursing Units (SNUs) are based in hospitals. They typically provide only short term care and rehabilitation services. Some SNUs are located inside the hospital, and some are located in a separate building. The skilled nursing unit is licensed as part of the hospital. They are regularly inspected by AHCA.
