​​​​​​​​​Welcome to Centra!

On behalf of the Professional Development Team we would like to welcome you to Centra!  Our team is looking forward to working with you during your Nursing and Clinical Orientation.  
 
Our Goal
The goal of general and nursing orientation is to ensure that orientees receive initial information regarding policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements to support practice at Centra. We also aim to familiarize orientees with Centra’s mission, vision, values, and organizational goals.
 
Electronic Health Record
You must complete your Cerner modules before you begin working in any area that uses Cerner.  Cerner modules can be found at http://www.promisepoint.com/centralogin/.
