Abstract
This is a mixed-method study reporting newly graduated registered nurses (NGRNS) transition experience to professional practice in Singapore, represented by three themes; "personal", "professional" and "organizational". NGRNs experience some degree of unpreparedness, owing to theory-to-practice gap. Likewise, degree and types of healthcare organizational supports might also impact their transition experience.
