Nurse Residency Program

Pennsylvania Hospital offers a year-long series of learning and work experiences designed to support nurses as they transition into professional nursing practice. The goal of the program, based on Patricia Benner's From Novice to Expert, is to assist the graduate nurse's progress from advanced beginner to competent nurse.

This program offers nurses the opportunity for clinical practice in an environment committed to professional growth through nurse-patient relationships, evidence-based practice, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Participating nurses will receive a full salary and an excellent benefits package as well as dedicated preceptors and faculty for guidance and orientation throughout the program.

Criteria for Admission

  • Graduation from an accredited BSN program within the last 6 months
  • Good references from your school of nursing
  • RN licensure or a temporary practice permit
  • A willingness to commit to the one-year necessary to complete the Residency Program

Bring your nursing career to Pennsylvania Hospital where your skills will be highly valued. We offer ongoing training, an exceptional compensation program, and 100% prepaid tuition.
