JACKSON - West Tennessee Healthcare is pleased to announce that its RN Residency Program achieved accreditation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).
ANCC Practice Transition Accreditation validates hospital residency or fellowship programs that transition registered nurses (RNs) and advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) into new practice settings that meet rigorous, evidence-based standards for quality and excellence.
Nurses in accredited transition programs, like West Tennessee Healthcare's RN Residency Program, experience curricula that promote the acquisition of knowledge, skills and professional behaviors necessary to deliver safe, high-quality care.
Tina Prescott, Chief Operating and Chief Nursing Officer expressed pride in the program, recognized by ANCC as one of the highest-quality transition programs for nurses.
