    Transition Experiences of Newly Graduated Nurses
    (MARMARA UNIV, INST HEALTH SCIENCES, 2020-06-29) ERGÜN, YASEMİN; Yildiz, Cennet Ciris; Ergun, Yasemin
    Objective: This is a qualitative study based on content analysis in order to reveal the transition experiences of nurses in the first year of their profession. Methods: The study was carried out between January 2018 and March 2018 with 30 newly graduated nurses, who work in three Training and Research Hospitals, two University Hospitals and three Private Hospitals with JCI Quality Certificate and have a maximum of one year of professional experience. Data were collected through semi-structured in-depth individual interviews using face-to-face interviews. Results: Themes defined in the transition process of newly graduated nurses were emotional, sociocultural and developmental, physical and intellectual. In general, transition experiences of individuals were greatly influenced by the support that is given to the new graduate, the experience, the predictability, sincerity and consistency of the relationships with the individuals they were in contact with, and the expectations of the institution or experienced employees. In the first year of their professional experience, graduates do not feel themselves qualified, comfortable, safe and secure, and experience emotional and physical exhaustion in a short time. In addition, changes in life patterns and routines have emerged as distracting developments or unexpected burdens, particularly for new graduates experiencing adaptation problems. Conclusion: This study focused on the experiences of nurses during their first-year practice which is incredibly challenging for the new graduated nurses. It has been determined that formal and informal support programs are necessary for the new graduates to successfully start the profession.
