Abstract
In the wake of COVID-19 and surrounding hospital closures, South Shore Health embarked on an evidence-based journey to quadruple their new graduate nurses annual hiring by creating a unique nurse residency program. Balancing growth with a high-quality orientation and skill acquisition to mediate the effect of fewer direct patient clinical experiences for nursing students during the pandemic. Further the health system was able to achieve a dramatic improvement in their first-year retention rates for registered nurses.
