Mary Washington Healthcare will take your nursing degree to the next level with its New Graduate Residency Program.
As a new graduate or new acute care nurse, we know how important it is to determine which unit is the best for you. This extensive 12-week rotation program will give you the opportunity to practice in different units to determine which unit is the right fit for you!
Our next RN Residency Program:
- Start Date: July 26, 2021 – Application Deadline: February 28, 2021 – Click here to apply now.
If you are selected for the program, you will learn everything they couldn’t put in textbooks like family dynamics, patient dynamics, and psychosocial process – how much more it takes to treat the entire patient. With three months of classroom training and unit orientation, you will be exposed to things you wouldn’t necessarily see while you are at school. Instead of looking at each system individually – nervous, hepatic, etc., the in-house teaching staff will integrate it so that it all comes together. While attending the in-house classroom, you will be assigned 3 floors to orient for 2 weeks per floor. If there is something you haven’t seen or a floor you are interested in working on, you will be encouraged to visit with floor managers, shadow the RNs and learn as much as you want. We want you to put in as much time and energy as necessary to be sure you find the right fit.
As medical innovations and technologies continue to advance, so does Mary Washington Healthcare. With two hospitals and free-standing facilities throughout the area, we offer all the benefits of a big city healthcare system while located in the beautiful Virginia countryside.
It is also important to note, that while you do not need your Virginia RN license at the time you submit your application, you will need a valid VA nursing license by the start date of the program to be eligible for this New Grad residency opportunity.
