Banner New Nurse Experience

U.S.A. Arizona

Published

Hello all! I just accepted a new grad position at one of the Banner facilities in Tucson. I was curious if anyone has been through the new grad experience recently, and if you would mind sharing your experience. Are there simulations? How was your preceptor experience? Do you have any forums or monthly meetings to attend and assess progress? How is your facility handling issues associated with COVID-19? Do you feel protected? Also, if anyone has any insight on starting in the ICU during their new grad experience, I'd love to hear your thoughts as well. Thanks for taking the time to read this post and share your stories. Stay safe out there!

I am also supposed to be starting. I have a tentative start date on July 13, waiting to hear from HR. Recruiter said in the next couple business days. Do you have a start date?

Hi! If you don't mind be asking what tucson facility and which unit are you on? I am wanting to apply, but I am not sure which units are hiring? Also how long did it take to hear back from the recruiter?

I’m at main campus. I don’t know which units are hiring, I was in Banner’s preceptorship so they offered me a job. It took me like a week to hear from the recruiter.

Specializes in ICU.

I start July 27th. Just passed the NCLEX this week. Which unit are you going into? I'll be in the ICU at South Campus. I was also in the preceptorship program.

Hello! I was wondering when they offered you a job after the completion of your preceptorship?
