New Graduate Nurse Residency Program - Home Health & Hospice

Attention all 2026 Graduates! The University of Vermont Health Network Home Health & Hospice is offering a Nurse Residency Program which is a supportive and dynamic program designed to empower new graduate nurses to transition seamlessly from novice to competent-level clinicians. Our program focuses on growing staff while cultivating excellence, developing critical thinking and leadership skills to provide high-quality and compassionate care.

We are offering full time opportunities within our Adult Home Care and Community Hospice divisions. Adult Home Care​: Our Community Health Nurses deliver care to patients in their homes, providing a wide range of skilled nursing care while working to the top of their licensure. Each day is different; you and your clients meet between the hours of 8 am and 4:30 pm, a schedule that is coveted by many nurses!

We are a comprehensive team comprised of RNs, Physical Therapists, LPNs, LNAs, SLPs, Social Workers and administrative support, all collaborating together to support patients to remain living in the setting of their choice, their home. A two year commitment is highly preferred. Community Hospice: Provides a full range of skilled nursing care to terminally ill patients in a home care setting, under moderate clinical supervision, with a focus on client education and palliative care to meet the physical and emotional needs of clients, while educating and providing support to families.
