Learn more about the Enhanced IEN Orientation Program
Great People are the cornerstone of who we are and everything that we do.
At Shannex, we are committed to providing our team members with opportunities to grow their careers and work with purpose every day. We are excited to announce the launch of two programs in 2024 that will provide our nurses with the opportunity to enhance their clinical and leadership knowledge and skills.
On June 24, 2024, we welcomed the first cohort of Internationally Educated Nurses (IENs) to our Enhanced IEN Orientation Program. Over six weeks, our new team members will participate in comprehensive classroom and simulation-based experiential learning to facilitate their transition into Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) positions at Shannex.
The program will prepare our team members to provide compassionate, honest, professional, and safe care to the aging adult population in our long-term care communities. Following completion of the program, we will continue to support team members with the development of individualized learning plans and mentor them while they work in our communities.
In September 2024, we are excited to launch our Clinical Leadership Program. Current and aspiring Clinical Leaders will have the opportunity to participate in a 12-month program within-person sessions facilitated by members of the Shannex Leadership Team. Between sessions, team members will be provided the opportunity to apply new knowledge and skills to practice, and will be paired with a member of our Clinical Leadership Team, who will provide ongoing support and mentorship throughout and beyond the program.
