|May 2, 2024
Summary
High turnover rates among new nurses are reduced by a nurse residency program (NRP). The NRP also improves clinical competence, job satisfaction, and organizational socialization for nurses.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Healthcare Workforce Management
- Organizational Psychology
Background:
- High turnover rates among newly graduated nurses negatively impact workload and productivity.
- Investigating the effectiveness of a nurse residency program (NRP) is crucial for addressing this issue.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate the impact of an NRP on newly graduated nurses.
- To assess changes in clinical competence, job satisfaction, organizational socialization, turnover intention, and turnover rates.
Main Methods:
- A study was conducted with 167 newly employed graduate nurses in South Korea.
- Participants were divided into an NRP group (n=52) and a control group (n=115).
- Data were collected one year after the NRP implementation.
Main Results:
- The NRP group demonstrated significantly lower turnover intention and rates.
- Nurses in the NRP group showed substantially improved clinical competence, job satisfaction, and organizational socialization.
Conclusions:
- A systematized nurse residency program (NRP) is effective in improving new nurse outcomes.
- The NRP positively impacts job performance, satisfaction, socialization, and reduces turnover, even within the South Korean context.

The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved.
