Graduate Nurse Residency

Nursing. It's a profession that demands continual learning. For new nurses, there is still much to learn as you make your transition from the classroom to clinical practice. And one-on-one mentoring from an expert nurse can make a big difference in your success.

That's where Lakeland Regional Medical Center's Graduate Nurse Residency Program comes in – it's the perfect way for you to make the leap from classroom to clinical practice. You'll go through an extensive orientation during the day shift, followed by mentoring sessions and shadow rounding with the highly experienced RNs who serve as Graduate Nurse Residency Coordinators.
