NURSE RESIDENCY PROGRAM
 
New graduate nurses welcome! Come join our nursing team. We are offering a year-long transition to practice residency program which supports professional development of new graduate nurses entering home care practice.
 
The purpose of the Nurse Residency Program is to promote the development of competency and role transition, supporting the resident professionally, emotionally, and socially during the first year of nursing practice.
 
The Nurse Residency Program incorporates:
  • Workshop sessions with curriculum content
  • Active hands-on practice with an experienced preceptor
  • Mentored problem solving with managing complex clients
Initially, the preceptor exposes new graduates to home care through supervised visits, providing ongoing support and mentorship as participants' progress through the residency. This combination of practical application, educational opportunities, and peer support facilitate the transition from new graduate to competent professional nurse over the course of a 12 month period.
