Josh, RN, Spring Valley Hospital

I ultimately chose The Valley Health System because of my experience during nursing school while rotating through clinicals with different facilities. The Valley Health System has brought forth the sense of comradery that I looked for in a company while applying for full time positions. The RN residency program was a huge factor in my decision for why The Valley Health System. This program supported us, while challenging and creating scenarios that made us think outside of the box.

RN Float Pool

The VHS Float Pool is a program aimed at promoting professional nursing while utilizing a nurse’s unique gifts of flexibility, expertise, and experience. The VHS Float Pool provides the opportunity for nurses to work full-time or part-time positions in hospitals throughout The Valley Health System network. It is an ideal setting for nurses who may not have decided on a specialty area and would like to work in a variety of areas before making a commitment, or experienced nurses who prefer a varied work experience. The VHS Float Pool nurses enjoy the same continuing education, benefits, and certification opportunities available to other nurses throughout the organization.

VHS Float Pool nurses are required to float to a minimum of 3 facilities or 5/6 facilities and must have at least one year of acute care nursing experience. The VHS Float Pool is comprised of RNs from a variety of specialties, featuring the following positions:

RN I - Medical/Surgical
RN II - Medical/Surgical and Stepdown units
RN III - Stepdown units, Critical Care, ER, Labor/Delivery, and Procedural Areas

RN New Grad Residence Program

While nursing school has established the framework for the registered nurse's practice, the RN Residency is an educational opportunity to further develop that knowledge and learning experience through didactic simulation, case studies, discussions and role-play learning methods. The RN Residency Program is designed to provide new graduate RNs with real-world knowledge so the nurse can be successful in all types of nursing specialties.

This one-year program is designed to promote critical thinking and job satisfaction in the New Graduate Nurse.

  • It begins with an average of three (3) months of Preceptorship and Specialty Internship coursework
  • Continues with six (6) months of Residency classes (one class per month)
  • Ends with a final Evidence-Based Research Workshop

Compared to other local programs, the VHS RN Residency is the only residency to extend throughout the first year of nursing practice so the nurse can continually grow and apply learning during unit experiences.

DAISY Award Recognition
