Our Nursing Orientation program includes classroom instruction and unit-specific education for nurses joining the Houston Healthcare team. Each nurse is placed with a preceptor to ease the transition and works with a Clinical Coordinator to customize orientation.
Houston Healthcare's hospitals are exceptional facilities for the new RN graduate with less than one year experience. We assist the new graduate with the transition from student nurse to an independent registered nurse. Our Medical-Surgical RN Residency Program provides the new nurse with clinically significant classroom instruction as he/she works closely with a preceptor on a nursing unit. The residency program is led by a Residency Coordinator who collaborates with unit-based Clinical Coordinators and preceptors to ensure a well-rounded orientation experience to help new nurses build clinical skills and confidence.
