Nursing at The Miriam Hospital
Programs
Clinical Advancement Program
The Miriam Hospital supports its nurses with a clinical advancement
program designed to:
- Recognize and reward professional nurses for their clinical
expertise
- Empower the professional nurse to function as a leader
- Promote excellence in the nursing care delivery to our patients
and their families
- Enhance job satisfaction by recognizing professional and clinical
growth.
Advancement to some levels requires a professional portfolio related
to clinical expertise and nurse achievements.
The program is in alignment with the hospital's nursing philosophy.
The American Nurses Association's "Standards of Clinical Nursing
Practice" provide direction for professional nursing practice
and are the framework for the clinical advancement program. Benner's
"novice to expert" theory was used to develop the levels
for the clinical advancement program.
