On the first day of employment, all newly hired staff attends house-wide orientation. Nurses continue orientation for three additional days. Through both lecture and hands-on learning, our nurses become familiar with:

• Nursing Organization structure and philosophy
• Shared Governance
• Patient Safety and Risk Management
• Infection Control
• Restraint Usage
• Equipment and Monitors
• Computerized Documentation
• CPR and Mock Code Practice

Following orientation, our unit educators continue with unit specific education. Each nurse is assigned an on-unit preceptor in order to work side by side in delivering patient care. Specialty areas have an extended orientation process including additional classes.

• Medical/Surgical Fellowship Program
• Critical Care Fellowship Program
• Pediatric Fellowship Program
