Beyond online modules, the program features in-person and hands-on training from expert nursing professional development specialists, so you have a safe environment to build both confidence and competence.

You’ll build a strong relationship and have someone you can rely on when you need assistance.
Career Paths
After you’ve completed your one-year residency with us, you’ll be able to choose from four specialty tracks that will allow you to develop your skills in a specific area of care. These nursing career paths include:
- Clinical Expert – This is one of our most popular tracks, with many nurses choosing to pursue a mentorship program in Diabetes or Skincare.
- Advanced Practice – You’ll explore the various responsibilities, requirements and paths you can take as an APRN in order to provide preventive or primary care services to patients.
- Specialty Nursing – Specialize in an area of nursing practice outside of direct patient care in areas that include Risk Management, Infection Prevention, Nursing Research and more.
- Leadership Track– In addition to the above specialty tracks, you may also choose to pursue a Leadership track which will help you meet your professional leadership goals for the roles of Clinical Nurse, Assistant Nurse Manager, Nurse Manager/Nursing Operations Manager and Directors. Educational offerings include recommended and elective courses and leadership experience/exposure opportunities.
Each track provides developmental courses, experiential learning and supporting activities.
PRN/Flexible Schedule Nursing

That’s why we offer a variety of PRN shifts (staggered shift start times, flexible schedule lengths, specialized assignments, etc.) for experienced nurses to join our caregiver family. We’re committed to giving you the flexibility you need – no matter what may be going on in your life – to provide our patients with outstanding care.
We have opportunities available throughout our Ohio and Florida locations, including inpatient, outpatient, ED, express care, family health centers and many different areas such as Cardiology, Surgical, Urology and various other clinical specialties.
