Welcome to Your Future: Pacific Northwest National Nurse Residency Program
The Pacific Northwest National Nurse Residency Program supports new graduate RNs at our Washington and Oregon hospitals, providing a structured, supportive transition from student to practicing nurse. Through hands-on orientation, monthly transition classes, skills labs, and in-person and virtual learning, you’ll build confidence, clinical skills, and critical thinking.
With guidance from dedicated preceptors, educators, and mentors, your experience is tailored to your goals, strengthening leadership, resilience, and specialty knowledge. Our year long NNRP program allows you to make a meaningful impact on patient care while accelerating your career in an organization deeply invested in its nurses.
At the heart of everything we do is a patient and family centered approach, which serves as the foundation for care that is safe, effective, efficient, timely, and equitable.
