Abstract:
Reflection is a strategy that may enhance transition into practice for the new graduate registered nurse (NGRN). If introduced in the early stages of practice, reflection can be used as a tool to continuously evaluate and improve practice. A theory synthesis of Meleis' transition theory and Schon's reflective practice model was developed to support reflection as a tool for new nurses transitioning into the role of professional nurses. Reflection has the potential to improve the NGRNs' perception of their role, decrease feelings of disconnectedness, and improve patterns of response.
