NiPHC Transition to Practice Program
APNA's Transition to Practice Program is our evidence-based support program for nurses new to primary health care.
You’ll be paired with an experienced mentor, have access to exclusive education tools and resources, and meet other nurses just like you through small-group learning activities. And it’s completely free!
If you are an experienced primary care nurse, we’re also looking for mentors. You’ll have the full support of our team to help nurses reach their full potential, and you’ll be paid for your time.
