The View From Here: Understanding the Lived Experiences of New Graduate Nurses With 8-10 Months of Experience
Abstract:
This qualitative study is based on individual interviews with 16 new graduate nurses during their 8th to 10th month of employment. Four themes emerged from the data that reflected their lived experience: well on my way, finding my family, good days/bad days, and in recovery…moving forward. Nursing professional developers play an important role in continuing to support new graduate nurses to complete the transition to practice.
