Summary
This clinical study aims to implement and evaluate a professional development programme (ProDeveloP) designed to facilitate the transition of newly graduated nurses (NGNs) into their new roles. NGNs face several challenges in the work environment and in developing their professional competencies. The aim is to support NGNs in a county hospital in central Sweden to facilitate their professional development. Data will be collected during the NGNs' first year through measures at week week 13 (for both arms) and quarterly (intervention grpoup). This will be combined with individual interviews and focus groups with NGNs, dialogue facilitators and managers.
Detailed description
The primary outcomes will be role clarity, task mastery, social acceptance, recovery and stress. The researchers will compare the results of the primary outcomes with those of a control group measure. Secondary outcomes will be experience of the intervention, transition support, job satisfaction and intention to leave. Informed consent was signed prior to participation in the study. The ethical application has been approved by the Ethics Authority IS, diary number 2022-05682-0.
