Four Winneshiek Medical Center staff nurses pass on-line training course

Four staff nurses from Winneshiek Medical Center have successfully completed the Iowa Online Nurse Residency Program offered by the University of Iowa College of Nursing.

Danielle Egan, Carly Grangaard, Erin Mann and Kristen Milbrandt were given certificates for completing the program, which was designed to help recent graduates transition into their new roles as professional nurses.

The program is delivered using interactive, online modules combined with either live webinars or on-site discussion sessions. Topics discussed include transition from student to professional nurse, communication with patient care providers, responsibilities of the professional nurse and decision-making at the point of care.
