The short version
A Northern Virginia health system where nursing runs on Epic, 12-hour day, night, and mid shifts, and standing Acute Care and Critical Care float pools. Inova Fairfax Medical Campus and Mount Vernon Hospital hold ANCC Magnet recognition, and Ashley Virts is the Fairfax campus Chief Nursing Officer.
Employer research, Sep 16, 2026
The nurse residency is a full year with ANCC PTAP accreditation, built on the Vizient/AACN curriculum and a monthly four-hour cohort seminar, so your first year has a schedule and not just a preceptor's best guess.
For new gradsSources
Experienced RNs moving into the Emergency Fellowship or a PCU Unit Supervisor role are sign-on bonus eligible.
For experienced nursesSources
Unit Supervisors are dedicated RN front-line leaders who carry no patient assignment, which is a real charge-track option rather than charge stacked on a full load.
