Nursing at USA Health
Our nurses are not just caregivers – they are also teachers, counselors, empathizers, encouragers and motivators. We recognize that for nurses to fill so many roles, they should feel supported. We prepare our nurses through the following:
Onboarding:
Specific, extensive orientation ensures new nurses feel comfortable and confident as they hit the floor.
Safety training:
Our program teaches our new nurses the USA Health approach to keeping patients from harm.
Residency program:
At Children’s & Women’s Hospital, new graduates are grouped together as a cohort for special training and experiences as they start their careers. At University Hospital, we provide nurses with experienced mentors to join into our system with ease.
A voice:
Our Nurse Retention committee meets regularly to communicate with each other and pass along ideas to leadership. Its goal is to partner with our nurses to create the type of work environment that keeps them engaged and on the job at USA Health.
Listen as our nurse heroes describe
what keeps them coming back even after tough days.
Are you ready to work someplace where you're valued?
A great quote says, “Nurses dispense comfort, compassion and caring without even a prescription.” We want that type of nurse to help us transform medicine along the Gulf Coast as a part of our region’s only academic healthcare system. Will you join us?
