New Graduate Transition into Practice: Improving Quality and Safety (Chapter)
- Description
There is evidence linking improved patient care to standardized transition to practice programs in the areas of safety, competence, and retention. This chapter explores that evidence, presents a standardized model as a solution, and gives examples of transition program models, as well as an overview of NCSBN’s Transition to Practice model.
