UAB Nursing would like to congratulate the latest nurse residents on completing their program. The nurse residency is a comprehensive, 12-month program for newly licensed nurses that helps them transition into more competent clinical practice.
Program participants develop professionally, gain practice knowledge, and are empowered to improve through implementing a quality-improvement or evidence-based practice group project. The nurse residents present their projects to their peers and unit leaders during a special session known as Seminar 12.
After the presentations, the cohort votes for the People’s Choice Award. For Cohort 29, two projects tied for this honor:
- “Safe Sleep for Newborns” – Anna “Gracie” Walker, Audrey Reeder, and Maylen Sargent
- “Screen Time in Neonates” – Ashlei Carter and Jaqueline “Hensley” Green
