From Classroom to Confidence
We are proud to announce that our New Nurse Residency Program has been re-accredited with distinction by the American Nurses Credentialing Center—the highest level of recognition possible. This elite designation means more than simply meeting national benchmarks. It signifies that our program consistently exceeds standards, delivering an exceptional experience in education, mentorship and clinical readiness for new nurses. This distinction validates our deep commitment to nurturing passion, building confidence and developing clinical excellence from day one.
Our year-long residency program is designed to bridge the transition from classroom to bedside with purpose and support. Graduate nurses receive:
• Dedicated learning time to strengthen clinical knowledge and skills
• One-on-one mentorship with experienced preceptors
• Hands-on simulation training to connect critical thinking with real-world action
• Collaborative case reviews and peer support sessions
• Ongoing guidance from clinical education leaders
Behind this recognition is something even more powerful: a culture of teamwork, encouragement and shared purpose. Learn more about nursing at CVPH at uvmhealth.org/Nursingreport26.
I really loved reading your article about the importance of investing in rural communities. I feel like it’s inspiring that with good thinking and cooperation from locals we could come up with some great things. The way you expressed your ideas is just like those professional nursing writing specialists who make complicated concepts simple enough for us all to grasp easily.
