Area of Science:

  • Nursing Workforce Dynamics
  • Professional Transition Studies
  • Healthcare Professional Development

Background:

  • The transition of new nurses into the workforce is frequently characterized by significant challenges and stress.
  • Existing research highlights concerns that these transition experiences may impact the long-term retention of newly qualified nurses.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify specific facilitators and barriers encountered by new nurses during their transition to practice.
  • To explore the qualitative experiences of new nurses in Ontario, Canada.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 217 new nurses in Ontario, Canada.
  • An open-ended question solicited qualitative data on transition experiences.
  • Thematic analysis was performed on 196 respondent comments.

Main Results:

  • Three key facilitator themes emerged: supportive teams, feeling accepted/confident/prepared, and a new graduate guarantee.
  • Four significant barrier themes were identified: feeling unprepared, unsupportive work cultures, lack of confidence, and false hope.
  • These themes provide insight into the factors influencing new nurse integration and job satisfaction.

Conclusions:

  • Supportive work environments are crucial for successful new nurse transition and retention, especially amidst current nursing shortages.
  • Recommendations include enhancing supportive environments and educational strategies, such as final practicums, to build new nurses' self-efficacy.
  • Addressing identified barriers is essential for improving the retention of early-career nurses in the profession.
