Download or read book Assessing the Efficacy of a Precepted Orientation in New Graduate Nurse Transition Into the Workplace written by James Law Hansen and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graduate registered nurse transition into the workplace continues to be an arduous experience for most new nurses. Unrealistic job expectations, inadequate initial socialization, and increased work demands result in lowered job satisfaction and higher turnover among new nurses. Extant literature on graduate transition has identified "best practice" principles that can ease the transition, and foremost among them is a formal precepted orientation. This study used a quasi-experimental survey design to assess the effects of a formal precepted orientation on the self-perceived transition experiences of new graduates hired into a 140-bed rural county hospital. Perceptions of graduate registered nurses hired into hospital units that possess a formal orientation are described along with those of their counterparts hired into hospital units without a formal orientation. The convenience sample of new graduates (n = 10) found that both the control (n = 5) and experimental (n = 5) groups reported a positive transition when they had a supportive work environment and preceptors. This implies a supportive work environment may be as conducive to a positive transition as a formal precepted orientation. For the nurses in this study, a supportive work environment might have been established prior to hire, as many of the new graduates had spent time in the hospital during nursing school clinical rotations. Graduates' level of personal stress in transition was unaffected by a formal precepted orientation.

Download or read book The Future of Nursing written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-02-08 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of Nursing explores how nurses' roles, responsibilities, and education should change significantly to meet the increased demand for care that will be created by health care reform and to advance improvements in America's increasingly complex health system. At more than 3 million in number, nurses make up the single largest segment of the health care work force. They also spend the greatest amount of time in delivering patient care as a profession. Nurses therefore have valuable insights and unique abilities to contribute as partners with other health care professionals in improving the quality and safety of care as envisioned in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) enacted this year. Nurses should be fully engaged with other health professionals and assume leadership roles in redesigning care in the United States. To ensure its members are well-prepared, the profession should institute residency training for nurses, increase the percentage of nurses who attain a bachelor's degree to 80 percent by 2020, and double the number who pursue doctorates. Furthermore, regulatory and institutional obstacles-including limits on nurses' scope of practice-should be removed so that the health system can reap the full benefit of nurses' training, skills, and knowledge in patient care. In this book, the Institute of Medicine makes recommendations for an action-oriented blueprint for the future of nursing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decade ahead will test the nation's nearly 4 million nurses in new and complex ways. Nurses live and work at the intersection of health, education, and communities. Nurses work in a wide array of settings and practice at a range of professional levels. They are often the first and most frequent line of contact with people of all backgrounds and experiences seeking care and they represent the largest of the health care professions. A nation cannot fully thrive until everyone - no matter who they are, where they live, or how much money they make - can live their healthiest possible life, and helping people live their healthiest life is and has always been the essential role of nurses. Nurses have a critical role to play in achieving the goal of health equity, but they need robust education, supportive work environments, and autonomy. Accordingly, at the request of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, on behalf of the National Academy of Medicine, an ad hoc committee under the auspices of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine conducted a study aimed at envisioning and charting a path forward for the nursing profession to help reduce inequities in people's ability to achieve their full health potential. The ultimate goal is the achievement of health equity in the United States built on strengthened nursing capacity and expertise. By leveraging these attributes, nursing will help to create and contribute comprehensively to equitable public health and health care systems that are designed to work for everyone. The Future of Nursing 2020-2030: Charting a Path to Achieve Health Equity explores how nurses can work to reduce health disparities and promote equity, while keeping costs at bay, utilizing technology, and maintaining patient and family-focused care into 2030. This work builds on the foundation set out by The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health (2011) report.
