It is our pleasure to announce that the Memorial Hermann Health System will offer the RN Fellowship Program. We are now accepting applications for the September 2013 program.

The RN Fellowship is an opportunity for BSN graduates to experience a unique non-employment, mentorship opportunity with a licensed professional nurse for six months. The mentorship is designed to provide in-depth experiences to enhance technical, interpersonal and professional skills.

Twenty-five RN Fellows will be the recipients of an RN Fellowship in one of the following specialty areas: Acute Care, Critical Care, Emergency Care, Maternal-Newborn, or Perioperative Care. Each Fellowship specialty provides classroom instruction and direct patient care experiences.

The program will begin on September 23, 2013, and interviewing for the program will begin as applications are submitted through July and August. If accepted, there is a program registration fee. Memorial Hermann will provide a monthly stipend and allowances for uniforms, meals and parking.

Please read the attached brochure for additional information and time lines about this program. If interested, please go to the following link and complete the online application. Your resume and references can be attached online to create a full and complete application package. Please note that unless you are currently employed, two references are required: Faculty and Personal. If you are employed, a professional/work reference is also requested, but not required.

If you have questions about the website or link, please do not hesitate to contact us at 713-932-5772.

I am a new grad, graduated Aug. 2013 with a BSN. I am currently employed at a skilled nursing facility, but I am not content with my orientation. I received an email regarding the fellowship program at Memorial Hermann. I am interested in joining the program. Is anybody currently in the program that can tell me more about it?

Aw. They can be very passive aggressive.

I don't know if I'll be able to get in the system once I'm licensed so I'm also looking into regional hospitals in the suburbs. My friends say they're good training grounds for new nurses although the turnover rate is high because once nurses get their experience, they move to bigger hospital systems.
