Riley Children's Health at Indiana University Health
Riley Children's Health, part of Indiana University Health, operates its Transition to IU Health Nursing Practice residency from its Indianapolis campus. The yearlong program is open to all new graduate nurses starting their first nursing role, and runs alongside standard nursing orientation rather than replacing it.
The residency focuses on socialization and support, strengthening clinical judgment, and promoting professional development during a nurse's first year on the job. Eligible applicants hold a current Indiana RN license, Basic Life Support certification, and a nursing degree from a nationally accredited program, with a BSN preferred over an associate degree.
Alongside the residency, IU Health offers a pay scale that grows with experience, comprehensive benefits, robust orientation, ongoing mentorship, and professional recognition. As part of a large academic health system anchored by a dedicated children's hospital, the program gives new nurses a structured path into pediatric specialty care within a broader statewide health network.
