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 30, EmmaBurk Owsley (MICU), Rachel Pugh (MICU), Mason Benner (MICU), and Leslie Whitman (MCCU) received this honor for their presentation titled, “Propofol Waste”.
