The above design overview outlines the onboarding structure, learning approach, and performance support strategy used to address onboarding challenges in healthcare environments.
This project is presented as a sample instructional design artifact and reflects applied professional practice.Design Approach
Blended onboarding model designed for performance readiness in healthcare environments
The onboarding solution was designed as a blended system rather than a single orientation event. Each component addresses a specific performance need while reinforcing the others to create continuity from day one through the first 90 days of employment.
Self-paced eLearning modules to establish a consistent foundation
Structured 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins to support coaching and feedback
Peer buddy and mentorship support to accelerate social integration
Blended workshops and practice simulations to build confidence through application
This approach reduces cognitive overload, supports early performance, and allows onboarding to scale alongside organizational growth.
Outcomes & Value
This onboarding design supports:
Faster time-to-competence for new hires
Increased confidence and accountability during the first 90 days
More consistent onboarding experiences across locations
Reduced reliance on informal, manager-driven training
By integrating flexible learning, social support, and performance-focused practice, the onboarding system prepares staff to perform confidently in patient-centered care environments.
