The Care Dimensions Nurse Residency Program is a transition to practice program for new graduate nurses or experienced who would like a meaningful and exciting career in hospice and palliative care. Our program focuses on creating a collaborative professional development environment where new graduate and experienced nurses can safely develop their critical thinking and nursing skills while working with our patients in a variety of settings including home care. An experienced team of clinical educators, dedicated preceptor, and experienced clinicians will support your growth as you transition into your career in hospice and palliative care nursing. You'll form meaningful relationships with your peers, as you share new experiences together.
Our Nurse Residency program helps prepare recent RN graduates or experienced nurses for a career in hospice and palliative care nursing. This paid, full-time, intensive orientation program followed by a nurse residency period (total of six months) helps bridge the gap between the classroom and the real world, providing you a smoother transition into a professional nursing role.
Nurse residents will be employed at Care Dimensions during the residency and with successful completion of the residency, begin a full-time position in Case Management. At the end of the residency program, the Resident will become an active member of the interdisciplinary team (IDT), and work under the supervision of a Clinical Manager and in collaboration with the attending physician and other IDT members to coordinate all aspects of the patient's care in accordance with current professional standards and practice to maximize the comfort and health of patients and families facing a life-limiting illness. Following the Residency, a commitment to work full-time for two years is expected for all nurse residents.
You will increase confidence in your clinical skills and judgment and enhance your critical thinking, and so much more-all in a safe, nurturing environment. You will be prepared to provide meaningful care to patients at this important and vulnerable time of their lives.
