AHC Rehabilitation - White Oak Medical Center

The Nurse Residency Program is a year-long experience that is designed to support your transition from college to professional nursing practice. After the completion of your residency year, you will have a minimum 1 year commitment to your unit of hire. Once you satisfy this commitment, you are eligible to transfer anywhere within the Adventist HealthCare system.

During your first year, the residency team works with your unit leaders, preceptor, and you to ensure a successful transition. You will also have a prescribed orientation period that is based on your specialty of hire. While in orientation you will work under the direct supervision of a RN preceptor who will support your acquisition of the RN role. Once a month, nurse residents from across the AHC system come together for a 4-hour seminar that gives you an opportunity to debrief your clinical experiences, engage with system and entity leaders, and build community with your peers.

After orientation is complete, you will remain a nurse resident through the calendar year, with continuous support from your Nurse Residency Team. On your unit, your preceptor will be a mentor to you after your transition to independence.

COVID-19 Vaccination

Adventist HealthCare strongly recommends all applicants to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 before commencing employment. Applicants may be required to furnish proof of vaccination.

Tobacco and Drug Statement

Tobacco use is a well-recognized preventable cause of death in the United States and an important public health issue. In order to promote and maintain a healthy work environment, Adventist HealthCare will not hire applicants for employment who either state that they are nicotine users or who test positive for nicotine and drug use.

While some jurisdictions, including Maryland, permit the use of marijuana for medical purposes, marijuana continues to be classified as an illegal drug under the federal Controlled Substances Act. As a result, medical marijuana use will not be accepted as a valid explanation for a positive drug test result.

Adventist HealthCare will withdraw offers of employment to applicants who test positive for Cotinine (nicotine) and marijuana. Those testing positive are given the opportunity to re-apply in 90 days, if they can truthfully attest that they have not used any nicotine products in the past ninety (90) days and successfully pass follow-up testing. ("Nicotine products" include, but are not limited to: cigarettes, cigars, pipes, chewing tobacco, e-cigarettes, vaping products, hookah, and nicotine replacement products (e.g., nicotine gum, nicotine patches, nicotine lozenges, etc.).
