The Graduate Nurse Transition to Practice Program aims to support you in an educational and clinical setting as you make your transition from student to Registered Nurse or Midwife. We will facilitate your Transition to Practice by providing you with opportunities to consolidate your undergraduate skills and knowledge, integrate theory to practice and further develop your professional and clinical skills through a structured, clinically focused program.
The Graduate Nurse Transition to Practice Program prepares you to work independently in a diverse environment. To assist you in this transition process, the clinical nurse education team provides practical assistance and support in the clinical environment. As a Graduate Nurse you will have the opportunity to work at three of Northern Health’s campuses – The Northern Hospital, Bundoora Extended Care Centre and Broadmeadows Health Service.
The Graduate Nurse Transition to Practice Program helps nurses to develop the skills and knowledge required for a rewarding career across the continuum of care. Support for Graduates is a key feature of our program.
The Program is run over 54 weeks, commencing with a comprehensive orientation, followed by supernumerary shifts. There are a variety of clinical rotations available to you throughout your Graduate Year and there is an option for full-time or part-time work (a total of eight shifts per fortnight).
