How MaineHealth Earned PTAP Accreditation with Distinction — and How Your Org Can Too

Building a High-Impact Nurse Residency Program That Drives Retention and Accreditation Success

Earning ANCC PTAP accreditation with distinction isn't easy. Keeping 85% of your newly licensed nurses for two-plus years, well above the national benchmark of roughly 70%, is even harder. MaineHealth did both, and in this hour, they're showing you exactly how. Join a moderated panel with five MaineHealth leaders as they walk through the data, decisions, and program structure behind their year long Nurse Residency Program, a proven model for supporting newly licensed nurses across a multi-site health system.

You'll walk away knowing how to:

• Benchmark the outcome metrics that actually move the needle
• Turn evaluation findings into real, continuous program improvement
• Achieve, and maintain, ANCC PTAP accreditation with distinction
