Abstract:
Newly graduated nurse practitioners (NPs) often face challenges transitioning into practice due to increased responsibility, limited support and unclear role expectations. This quality improvement study examined the implementation of a mentorship program for new NPs in Nova Scotia, supported by the Nursing Innovation Fund and developed in collaboration with Nova Scotia Health, the IWK Health Center, and the Department of Health and Wellness. Ten NPs engaged in virtual or hybrid mentoring relationships. Findings highlighted six months as a critical period for role identity, with ongoing workload and support challenges noted at 12 months. Results suggest mentorship must be flexible and tailored to evolving needs.
