RESUMEN
A multihospital study examined the impact of restricted clinical opportunities during COVID-19 on newly graduated nurses' experiences, self-reported competence, and self-reported errors upon entry into a nurse residency program and at 6 months. Newly graduated nurses' experiences (n = 2,005) were described using comparative data from cohorts before and during restricted experiences across 22 hospitals; minimal differences were observed. Nursing professional development specialists can utilize this information when creating and sustaining transition-to-practice programs.

PURPOSE: This purpose of this study was to describe college students' knowledge of osteoporosis, health beliefs regarding osteoporosis, self-efficacy to perform osteoporosis-preventing activities, and actual performance of osteoporosis-preventing activities. METHOD: This descriptive study used a survey method. Participants completed a questionnaire consisting of the Osteoporosis preventing Behaviors Survey, the Osteoporosis Knowledge Test, the Osteoporosis Health Belief Scale, and the Osteoporosis Self-Efficacy Scale. SAMPLE: One-hundred ninety-four nursing student subjects (86 sophomore students and 108 senior students). RESULTS: Senior students were more knowledgeable about osteoporosis than sophomore students and were more confident about performing osteoporosis-preventing behaviors. There were no significant differences between the groups regarding their health beliefs about osteoporosis, their performance of weight-bearing exercise, dietary calcium intake, or intake of caffeinated products. CONCLUSION: These results may be useful in examining the nursing curricula at colleges of nursing, as well as investigating methods of helping beginning nurses, as health promoters, to make lifestyle changes. This, in turn, may lead to behaviors to prevent osteoporosis in themselves and those for whom they provide care.
