In this program, learners will not just learn about the theory of social determinants of health, but also gain knowledge and skills that are immediately transferable to implement change in the workplace and communities. Learners will also gain skills to overcome obstacles to implementing change and how to evaluate program success.

Transition to Practice Coordinator at Onvida Health

OpusVi’s Preceptor Program transformed how we evaluate and support our team. The detailed insights allowed us to identify and address performance risks before they could impact patient safety. With this level of clarity, we’re now confident that our preceptors are equipped to provide exceptional care and guidance, safeguarding both our patients and our nursing teams.

Executive Vice President, Chief Nursing Officer, CommonSpirit Health

I am proud to witness the profound impact our nurse residency program has had on our nursing staff. This program has been instrumental in bridging the gap between academic knowledge and real-world clinical practice, providing our new nurses with the support, confidence, and skills they need to excel.

The residency program not only enhances their clinical competence but also significantly boosts their job satisfaction and retention. Our nurses feel more prepared and resilient, which directly translates into improved patient outcomes and a stronger, more cohesive healthcare team.

Senior Vice President of Care Improvement, Arizona Hospital and Healthcare Association (AzHHA)

Providing support for nurses has never been more imperative, and we’re proud to partner with OpusVi to leverage its Transition to Practice platform to provide competency-based education. The time is now to put systems in place to address the nursing shortage and workforce burnout within our community hospitals, and we’re thrilled that this partnership, with the support of HB 2691 and funding from AHCCCS, will do just that.

Clinical Educator, Fort Defiance Indian Hospital

As an experienced Clinical Educator, I am deeply impressed by the carefully curated content included in the Transition To Practice preceptor training.I wish I had access to this content as a novice Clinical Educator several years ago. It would have allowed me to develop my skills as an educator sooner and saved me from learning via trial and error.
I believe our preceptors are very fortunate to have the content and the ability to have peers and mentors share their questions, concerns, and ideas as they prepare to help initiate their novice peers on their professional journey.
