Using the Relationship-based Care model was a successful approach to support the Clinical Nurse Specialist in the onboarding process. Program strategies included assigning a formal preceptor, implementing evidence-based CNS competencies, leveraging Office 365 applications for an integrative approach to the orientation process, and designing a formal mentor role for post orientation support. Participants will come away with concrete examples of a CNS onboarding and mentoring program in order to implement a succesful program at their organization.
