Day 1 at Duke Health orientation

After the hiring process is completed, you will participate in an orientation program called Day 1 at Duke Health. This interactive virtual experience is designed to immerse you in all things Duke Health — the mission, vision and values, history, key facts, benefits, and networking opportunities with other new Duke Health colleagues. Prior to this afternoon orientation, you will receive a link to access the experience which must be viewed on a computer, not a mobile device.
 

Orientation learning modules

In addition to the Day 1 at Duke Health orientation, within the first two weeks of your time with us, plan to complete the Duke Health orientation modules via the Learning Management System. This coursework will be automatically assigned to you and will take between 80 and 90 minutes to complete. Please prioritize the benefits module as you must select your benefits within 30 days of employment.
 

Clinical Education will contact all nursing and nursing support team members for their Nursing and Patient Care Services Orientation that will occur in-person for the first day followed by a hybrid schedule the remainder of the week. During this orientation, nurses will participate in icebreakers, hear from a Duke Health senior leader, and meet with the service-line CNE and other team members joining their service line.
