Background:

Traditional orientation programs often fail to meet the diverse needs of newly hired nurses.
Hospitals require adaptable onboarding strategies to effectively integrate new nursing staff.

Purpose of the Study:

To redesign a nursing orientation program to enhance flexibility and meet new nurse needs.
To evaluate the impact of self-study modules on the orientation process for new nurses.

Main Methods:

Redesigned orientation class content into flexible, self-study modules.
Implemented a modular approach to accommodate varying start dates and learning paces.

Main Results:

The self-study module approach provided greater flexibility in orientation scheduling.
New nurses could progress through content at their own pace, improving adaptability.

Conclusions:

Self-study modules offer a flexible and effective alternative to traditional nursing orientation.
This redesigned program better accommodates the needs of new nurses and the employing hospital.
