The shortcut to turn new grads into competent practitioners | | |  | | | | Recent research studies have confirmed what many nurse leaders have known for decades: When set up properly, a nurse residency program (NRP) can provide an ongoing support system and a gradual immersion into the profession which can avoid the “sink-or-swim” approach that pervades the industry.
NRPs help new graduates on their journey to becoming safer, more confident, and more competent clinicians as they work through their often-difficult transition into clinical practice.
Although great strides have been made over the past decades in NRPs, healthcare has undergone drastic changes and what may have worked for programs 20 years ago may not be feasible now.
Our Nurse Residency Program Builder, Second Edition provides actionable guidance on exactly how to go about instituting an effective program that works for 21st century practice.
This toolkit is packed with resources for educators, nurse leaders, and HR professionals to use in structuring a program, all of which can be downloaded and customized to suit their facilities’ needs. | | | | |
