Main Line Health’s Nurse Residency Program is a year-long initiative designed to support and guide new graduate nurses as they begin their first professional role. The program emphasizes the development of clinical skills, patient-driven outcomes, and professional growth.

Nurses will also attend in-services and staff meetings. At the end of the course, all participants must sit for the Periop 101 exam.
