Nursing
As a Magnet-designated facility, nurses are at the core of our ongoing commitment to transforming care for our patients. Our mission, vision, and values are driven by the concept that the patient comes first. We see the unique, holistic mission of nursing as one that strives to meet the needs of every patient, enabling individuals to achieve their highest level of health. As a nursing professional, you will have the rewarding experience of working in an organization that promotes shared governance to create evidence-based practices for the promotion of the health and wellness of individuals, families, and the communities we serve.
At Valley, our BSN-educated registered professional nurses practice in an environment where they are empowered with the support and resources to assist patients in attaining maximum wellness across the continuum of care. As the cornerstone of the healthcare team, Valley’s nurses embrace the shared vision of our health system: to be a national healthcare leader with a commitment to clinical excellence, compassion, and improving the health of the community.

The Valley Hospital also offers a New Graduate Nurse Residency Program, a structured educational program designed to prepare newly graduated registered nurses in acquiring the requisite knowledge, skills and attitudes to care for patients in their assigned clinical areas. The Valley Hospital’s New Graduate Nurse Residency Program is the only program in Bergen County, accredited with distinction as a Practice Transition Program by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation in Practice Transitions Programs.
The program accepts qualified licensed nurses who have graduated from a baccalaureate nursing program and are hired into nurse residency positions and trained as a cohort for six months. There are usually two cohorts per year, starting each fall and spring. The Nurse Residency positions are usually posted in January (for the fall cohort), and October (for the spring cohort).
