Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A high demand for experienced nurses and staggering turnover rates among new graduate nurses has resulted in a need for change. Studies show that a high percentage of new nurses resign from their first place of employment within the first year due to inexperience, inadequate training and an overwhelming work environment. To combat this issue there has been the development of residency programs. A residency program is a 12 month course that will train and educate new graduate nurses by assigning mentors. The mentors will be senior nurses who are experienced in various areas of the clinical setting in which the new nurse will be employed. The program will consist of on the job training throughout the course of the year- long orientation, assisting the new nurse with transitioning from student to professional. There is a shortage in nurses per unit in acute care settings and the patient to nurse ratio is causing a variety of issues including a decrease in patient satisfaction (Jones 2007). With an increase in patient ratio per nurse there is an increased chance of medical errors, mortality rates and length of stay for patients. Studies have shown that a residency program can decrease the turnover rate among new graduate nurses.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New graduate nurses are faced with stressful and challenging work environments as they transition from student nurse to practicing professional nurse. Some of the stress related factors are not having adequate skills resulting in a lack of confidence, uncomfortable working with an interdisciplinary medical staff, short staffing, poor leadership, and support. As a result, many new graduates leave the acute care setting within the first year from poor job satisfaction. This exacerbates short staffing problems, is costly for the acute care hospitals, and affects patient care. Most new graduate nurse's training programs are inadequate to prepare promising new nurses for the complexity of today's patient population and challenging work environments. Evidence based practice research supports the concept of institutionalizing a residency and mentorship program lasting at minimum one year with a designated mentor for up to one-year post preceptor ship to answer ongoing questions and concerns. Research evidence shows that acute care hospitals that have implemented this program have higher retention rates and significant increases in job satisfaction of newly graduated nurses. This proposal will include an implementation plan for acute care hospitals to put into practice a residency and mentorship program for new graduate nurses.

Book excerpt: A nurse residency program (NRP) was developed to transition the graduate registered nurse (GRN) into clinical practice beyond the academic role. This quasi-experiment project examined new graduate nurses and how an NRP was implemented to assist them in transitioning from scholarly practice into the clinical practice role. Sixteen recent baccalaureate-prepared nurses participated in the program. Each participant agreed to enter the program as a part of their employment process with the facility. During this time, the graduate was supported by a seasoned mentor assisting them in developing critical thinking, improving communication skills, and applying clinical skills during real patient scenarios. The graduate met monthly with the program cohort for one hour to review evidence-based practices, clinical scenarios, and to participate in the didactic discussion. The topics included addressing the roles of the nurse: fatigue- countermeasures related to shift work, nursing documentation, skin assessment, lab interpretation, respiratory system and equipment review, evidence-based practices, and delegation. A paired sample t-test was used to compare pre- and post-test survey results using a questionnaire established by the project hospital. Data analysis identified NRP impacted participants’ responses to questions related to anticipated growth and development of skills, collaborative clinical care, application of knowledge in evidence-based practices, and expansion of knowledge and comfort levels when working in different areas of the facility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New graduate nurses make up 10% of an organization's nursing staff (Hopkins & Bromley, 2016). New graduates are faced with the challenge of transitioning to practice from the classroom setting. Nurse residency programs are designed to provide new graduate nurses with a resource in their first year of practice. An integrative review of literature was conducted to analyze components of nurse residency programs associated with their respective outcomes. The implementation of a nurse residency program provides the new graduate nurse with support, education, and clinical skills required of a registered nurse. Proposed analysis of this literature review will be presented. -- Abstract

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "New graduate nurse residency programs' primary function is to provide new graduates with clinical experience and bridge the gap between student and competent registered nurse (Walsh, 2018). While the focus of these programs is on teaching new graduates, a gap in practice has been identified when it comes to the education of the nurses that are training these new graduates. The purpose of this program evaluation was to increase preceptor feelings of preparedness for the precepting role, as well as increase preceptor education attendance rates to at least 50% of eligible nurses. This was a program evaluation with a pre-/post-test design that evaluated the impact of preceptor education in 10 registered nurses. Participants submitted surveys to evaluate their feelings of support and preparedness for their educator roles before and after the educational presentation. There was a statistically significant increase in post-education scores (M=11.2, SD=2.15) when compared to pre-education scores (M=6.6, SD=2.8); t(9) = -5.81, p=0.00025597. Furthermore, 100% of respondents had a higher total score on the post-survey than the pre-survey with a mean difference of +4.6 points +/-2.5 (SD), indicating that they felt more supported and prepared to act as preceptors after the education. By offering a preceptor education curriculum that is easily accessible, organizations will see increased attendance rates and therefore higher feelings of support and preparedness from nurse preceptors. These preceptors will then be able to teach and empower new RNs on their journey to practice, offering a smoother and safer transition to professional independence, and decreasing burnout rates and turnover costs to the healthcare organization (Trepanier et al., 2012)"--Abstract.
Book Synopsis Nurse Residency Program by : Erin Ethington

Book excerpt: New graduate nurses encounter "transition shock" when they enter the workplace, especially in acute care settings such as hospitals. New graduate nurses have a difficult time transitioning into the work environment because they are unprepared by their academic training for the realities they will face and they often don't have the proper support in place to guide them through the transition. This leads to a high attrition rate of up to 30% within the first 18 months of employment which costs hospitals and health care facilities. High nurse turnover of new graduate nurses who aren't prepared for the complexities of clinical practice affect the quality of care provided. Patient outcomes are negatively affected because it often leaves hospitals dealing with a shortage of experienced nurses, which they compensate for by having high patient to nurse ratios. New graduate nurses must develop the necessary critical thinking skills to handle higher acuity patients and difficult situations, develop confidence in their clinical skills, and adapt to peer relationships. One solution to the "transition shock" that new graduate nurses face is the implementation of nurse residency programs. Nurse residency programs are shown to help new graduates have a better transition into the workplace and increase nurse retention. This paper discusses the problem of new graduate nurse turnover, the benefits of nurse residency programs, and the numerous research studies which have been done showing the success of nurse residency programs on new nurse graduate retention and job satisfaction. It also discusses how to implement a nurse residency program and monitor and evaluate its success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project is to help increase retention of newly licensed registered nurses (NLRN) at a large community medical center. The medical center loses approximately 20 NLRNs per year which is costly for the medical center. The loss of NLRN can be attributed to decreased job satisfaction, poor nursing competence and lateral violence between the nursing staff. Evidence shows that mentorship is a proven, evidence-based approach to solving these issues and more (Hodgson & Scanlan, 2013). Not only can mentorship help increase retention, address lateral violence, increase job satisfaction and nursing competence but, it can also help enhance NLRN nurses0́9 professional and personal growth. A mentor can help guide the mentee into becoming more involved in the community medical center as well as promote professional development by encouraging the mentee into achieving higher levels of education and reaching for loftier career goals. The emotional support provided by the mentor helps to increase the confidence of the NLRN by bridging the gaps between preceptorship and patient care. Literature shows that mentorship creates more unity within the unit thus increasing nursing competence which then leads to increased patient care (Jewell, 2013). The large medical center is interested in all of these factors and thus requested a formalized, standard, evidence-based nurse mentorship program to be implemented on all floors of the hospital. The Entry-level MSN CNL (EL-MSN CNL) student team conducted a quality improvement project to address these needs by developing a formalized mentorship program for newly licensed registered nurses at a large community medical center.

Book excerpt: In acute care settings that hire new graduate nurses of different educational backgrounds, does having a new graduate transition or residency program versus a traditional preceptorship create better prepared nurses and increase the retention rate within the first year of nursing? Research shows the initiation of new graduate programs help transition the new graduates from a novice and new nurse to a competent and confident nurse by the end of their first year of nursing by addressing their specific needs and by offering support (Philips, Kenny, Esterman, and Smith, 2014). Memorial Hospital currently does not have a new graduate residency and could highly benefit from implementing a new graduate residency program. The programs entails a specific and structured orientation with a manager approved preceptor, monthly meetings with the group of new graduates and the clinical educator, and self-evaluations for the new graduates to see their transition and improve their confidence month to month. Similar such programs improve retention of new graduate nurses and improve the employee satisfaction (Squires, 2002). By improving the retention rate the organization can also save money that would be lost by training an employee and then having them quit soon thereafter. The estimated cost of the program for twenty five new graduates including their preceptors is around $111,600, and with the average cost of training a new graduate nurse being

Book excerpt: "This qualitative study was conducted to explore the experience of graduate/novice nurses in an Entry into Practice group mentoring program. The Entry into Practice program is a group mentoring program for nurses with less than one year of experience. Interviews were conducted with Entry into Practice participants from the past five years. The interviews were transcribed and thematic analysis was completed. The findings were that novice nurses in this group mentoring program did feel supported by peers, educators and others without actually labeling the support as mentoring. The themes extracted include support, comfort, resources, and adaptation. The epxeriences of these novice nurses were similar to what is described in Meleis (2010) Theory of Nursing Transitions." --Authors' abstract.
