Start your nursing career with a solid foundation at NGHS.
We know that starting your nursing career can be scary, which is why our RN Residency Program is designed for Registered Nurses with less than one year of experience. At NGHS, nursing practice is grounded in the “Caring is the Human Mode of Being” theory by Sr. Simone Roach. As a resident, you will work in groups to complete an evidence-based practice project that will be presented at graduation. This Capstone work is a representation of autonomy, accountability, and authority – three tenets of our Professional Nursing Governance Structure.
