Abstract:
A thoughtful, standardized onboarding program is one of the most powerful levers advanced practice leaders have to improve role transition, early productivity, and retention. This column offers a narrative blueprint for organizing and humanizing the onboarding journey, spanning preboarding, orientation, and role integration, while managing real-world complexities like credentialing, scheduling, and full-time equivalent tracking. The authors spotlight a practical, high-impact dashboard that enabled large-scale hiring and streamlined processes across a 1100-bed adult hospital with more than 440 advanced practice registered nurses and physician associates.
