We are excited to share that the University Hospital Nurse Residency Program has been accredited by the American Nurses Enterprise as part of their Practice Transition Accreditation Program. This prestigious designation given by the American Nurses Credentialing Center – the same organization that appoints Magnet Recognition for healthcare organizations – recognizes our commitment to providing meaningful experiences for our nurses and reinforces our dedication to ensuring the highest standard of patient care.  We are proud to invest in the professional development of our new graduate nurses and provide them with the tools and support they need to excel in their careers. Thank you to our dedicated staff and faculty who have worked tirelessly to make this achievement possible. #ANCCPTAP #NursingResidency #Nursing

At University Hospital, we believe treatment goes beyond medicine. That's why Rutgers New Jersey Medical School students known as the Bergen Barbers provide free haircuts and shaves to UH patients while they're in the hospital. This selfless work not only helps our patients feel their best, but it also gives them a sense of connection to our providers. Watch this ABC7 piece to see the Barbers at work: https://lnkd.in/e6W3mb_e

At University Hospital, one of our core values is Respect. We embrace the value of each person and are sensitive to each individual's unique and diverse needs.
