The nurse residency program is designed to support newly graduated RNs and LPNs in their transition to hospital nursing practice. An intensive two week orientation with nurse educators will include topics such as: interprofessional collaboration, trauma informed care, opioid and alcohol withdrawal assessment and treatment, ECG interpretation, and wound care.
