Vizient/AACN Nurse Residency Program™

St. Joseph’s Health is proud to offer a program to help graduate nurses successfully transition into clinical practice. We care about you and are committed to empower you to successfully navigate your professional nursing journey. We have partnered with the Vizient/AACN Nurse Residency Program™ to provide resources to help our new nurses (RN Residents) gain confidence and increase competence during this year long program. Your well-being as a new nurse is enhanced through hands-on training and processing clinical experiences.
As an RN Resident at St. Joseph’s Health, you will receive mentoring from an experienced nurse, build relationships with peers and participate in engaging learning experiences in a supportive environment. The monthly interactive sessions using evidence-based curriculum will increase your ability to:

  • Use effective decision-making skills
  • Provide clinical nursing leadership when administering care
  • Incorporate research-based evidence into practiceStrengthen professional commitment to nursing
  • Formulate an individualized professional development plan

There is no separate application to the Vizient/AACN Nurse Residency Program.™ Every graduate nurse or RN with less than one-year experience (hired as RN Residents) will be enrolled based on hire date. We look forward to providing you the support and encouragement you need as you transition into the nurse you have always wanted to be. St. Joseph’s Health has two cohorts per year, beginning in the Spring and Fall.
