ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Helping newly graduated registered nurses successfully adapt to clinical practice, evaluating work capabilities, identifying deficiencies, and continuously providing educational support to improve deficiencies are reported to be of paramount importance.OBJECTIVES:
To develop a tailored nursing practice preparation improvement program for newly graduated registered nurses and assess its impact on the successful adaptation of nurses.DESIGN:
A quasi-experimental study. SETTINGS The study was performed at a tertiary general hospital in South Korea. PARTICIPANT A total of 53 newly graduated registered nurses (experimental group = 28; comparison group = 25) participated.METHODS:
The newly graduated registered nurses were recruited using purposive sampling to one of two groups. The study was conducted between February and May 2022. The experimental group underwent a 4-week education program that integrated various methods, whereas the control group underwent preceptor training in their department. Data were collected through a questionnaire survey and analyzed using the chi-square test, independent t-test, and analysis of covariance with the SPSS 26.0 program.RESULTS:
The nursing practice readiness improvement program tailored for newly graduated registered nurses was effective in reducing the transition shock (F = 9.18, p = 0.004) of newly graduated registered nurses and improving nursing practice readiness (F = 19.90, p < 0.001), job satisfaction (F = 4.09, p = 0.049), and retention intention (F = 6.20, p = 0.016).CONCLUSIONS:
This study presented an evidence based approach on the use of a nursing practice readiness improvement program for the successful adaptation of newly graduated registered nurses and the establishment of a nurse education system.Palavras-chave
