What is the Clinical Immersion/Nurse Residency program?
The innovative Nurse Residency curriculum provides students with the skills and information they need to confidently and knowledgeably provide safe nursing care in their senior year of study. Students are in the clinical area three days per week throughout the senior year ensuring that students are exposed to a large variety of patient issues and can become comfortable in the clinical setting. During the first three years at UD nursing students will work in the Resource Simulation Center, participate in field experiences, complete the work requirement, and work with Teaching Assistants to enter the senior year ready for clinical immersion.
