Job Description

Join Banner Del E. Webb's New Graduate RN Residency Program and launch your nursing career on the 4D Neuro Acute Care Unit. This full-time, night shift position (7pm-7:30am) is designed specifically for new graduate nurses who have recently passed the NCLEX. You will work on a 38-bed monitored progressive care unit focused on neuro and cardiac patient populations, providing an exceptional foundation in acute care while gaining exposure to specialized neuro, stroke, vascular, and cardiac patients.

The New Nurse Experience (NNE) program has received the highest accreditation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) as a Practice Transition Accreditation Program (PTAP). You will be clinically mentored by unit staff and educators in a collaborative learning environment designed to transition you from a new graduate to a fully competent, professional nurse.

The innovative Progress-In-Place model allows you to care for patients throughout their hospitalization as acuity levels change, providing valuable experience across both Medical-Surgical and Progressive Care settings while enhancing critical thinking, assessment, and clinical decision-making skills.

Responsibilities

  • Assess patient physical, psychological, social, spiritual, educational, developmental, cultural, and discharge planning needs
  • Review patient history and physical with patient and family; ensure completion within appropriate timeframe
  • Review diagnostics and laboratory data and report abnormal results to physicians and appropriate caregivers
  • Formulate a plan of care including discharge planning, utilizing assessment data and input from patient, family, and health team
  • Implement the plan of care through direct patient care, coordination, delegation, and supervision of healthcare team activities
  • Provide care based on physician orders and nursing plan of care in compliance with policies, procedures, standards of care, and regulatory requirements
  • Evaluate patient and family response to care and teaching; revise the plan of care as needed
  • Document assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation in the patient record in a timely and accurate manner
  • Participate in unit or facility shared leadership and contribute to improvement of national nursing quality indicators
  • Interact with all levels of staff, physicians, patients, families, and external healthcare contacts

Program Activities

  • Clinical experiences with a preceptor
  • Training in Banner's state-of-the-art Simulation Center
  • Competency and skills assessment and verification
  • Orientation to the Cerner electronic medical health record system
  • Patient care skills lab with hands-on equipment experience
  • e-Learning modules
  • Resources for professional and personal development
