The Holy Name Nurse Residency Program bridges the gap between education and practice for full-time, newly graduated nurses. It is accredited as a Practice Transition Program by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s (AANC’s) Commission on Accreditation in Practice Transition Programs.
The 13-month program includes 144 hours (with a minimum of four hours per month) of paid classroom time as well as 2,000 hours of on-the-job training and 1-to-1 mentoring. Participants also have access to The Russell Berrie Institute of Simulation Learning to expand their specialized skills as well as practice communication, team dynamics, critical thinking, and decision-making.
Holy Name's Nurse Residency Program provides new graduates a safe and supportive environment during the transition from novice to competent nurse, giving them the training and support they need to thrive in their careers.
