Abstract

The disruption of the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact in the transition of the new graduate nurse to independent practice. This article describes the conversion of a nurse residency program from a traditional classroom to a virtual setting and the barriers the team encountered. Curriculum changes and processes are described, including ideas for future implementation. These processes may be used as a guide for other institutions.
