I was wondering if anyone had any recent experience with the HealthOne StaRN residency program for new graduate RNs. I recently applied for the August start date. I've already interviewed over the phone and am just waiting to hear back. Is anyone doing it now? Or already secured a place for August? I'm curious what the training and experience has been like. A 2 year commitment is a long time, and the drive would be about an hour from me. Is it worth it?

While Im not in the program I do help precept EDGE nurses, think StaRN for the ED. They have all said it is really nice just because it helps bridge that gap from school to actual world, but they of course do not like the classroom time ha.

I found posts for HealthONE in other states. I'm not sure if it would be worth it to me because I don't know much about the program. That's why I was hoping to talk to people who have done it at one of the hospitals in Denver to get a better idea about it, if people thought it helped them, and if they learned a lot.
