New Graduate Nurse Residency Program
Nurses are the heartbeat of all hospitals and that is especially true here at MarinHealth. Advocate, care coordinator, pharmacy interface, therapy liaison — they do it all while providing essential, hands-on care at the patient’s bedside. In fact, a nurse’s skills and clinical judgment shape virtually every moment of the patient experience — and have enormous impact on the outcomes of a patient’s care. Anyone who has experienced care at MarinHealth can attest to this. Please help us invest in nurses who will carry MarinHealth’s care standards and values into the future and prepare them to evolve into seasoned professionals who can expand their skills, keep up with developments in medicine, and mentor the next generation of colleagues.
