INTEGRIS Health’s Nurse Residency Program is designed for new RN graduates and nurses with less than six months experience as an RN. The one-year program expands beyond orientation to assist the new RN graduate with making a smooth transition from student to professional member of a health care team.
INTEGRIS Health’s Nurse Residency Program has also been recognized by the Department of Labor Industry Recognized Apprenticeship as an Industry-Recognized Apprenticeship Program.
Congratulations to all our INTEGRIS Health Nurse Residency Program worksite settings for becoming one of only two Nurse Residency Programs in Oklahoma to achieve this accreditation and the first in the state to gain such accreditation with distinction.
