I think the best you could do is work as a Nursing Assistant in the hospital in question as you are going through your nursing program. Working as a Unit Secretary is an option also.

It will give you an inside look at how the new nurses are trained/treated by the older nurses and what kind of orientation they get.

If you are made nervous by what you see, you can always go to work somewhere else after you graduate.
