Southern New Hampshire Medical Center has been recognized by the American Nurses Credentialing Center as a Magnet hospital since 2006. The Magnet credential represents the gold standard for an organization that supports autonomous nursing practice and interprofessional collaboration to maintain the highest quality of care.

About the Job:

Our Nurse Residency is a 12-month transition to practice program utilizing an evidence-based curriculum to facilitate professional development and support for new graduate nurses through Education, Mentorship, Leadership, and Preceptor. The program combines didactic and simulation-based learning, with precepted clinical experiences and professional development opportunities.

Our goal is to optimize the orientation experience while setting new nurses on the pathway to achieve their career goals. The novice nurse will participate in a Clinical Development Pathway which combines general and specialty specific learning and development and brings the new graduate from their first day to certification and beyond.

Our Nurse Residency Program is designed to grow confident nurses who are engaged in their profession and deliver compassionate, quality care that achieves exceptional patient outcomes. As a Magnet organization, our goal is to engage our nurses from day one and provide an environment for them to grow and achieve their professional goals.

• have opportunities to advance their careers or explore other specialty nursing roles

Nurses entering the Nurse Residency Program will apply into their preferred clinical specialty, and if accepted, be placed on the Nursing Development Pathway that corresponds with their experience and role. New Graduates are expected to participate in the Residency full-time, which allows them to start learning on their unit of hire, while participating in the regularly scheduled shared learning sessions with clinical experts. Our general sessions bring new nurses together from across the organization to discuss professional nursing issues and to build relationships and strengthen nursing practice.

After nurse residents complete their initial clinical orientation, they will continue to participate in the residency while building their advanced specialty knowledge, clinical skill set, and working on their assigned shift.
