Abstract

It is normal to be nervous, excited, and maybe even a little frightened in the first few years of your new nursing profession. You made it through to the end of that tunnel that seemed impossible, and now it's time to put everything you have learned into practice. We all know, however, that school does not always prepare you for everything. This session will provide you with at least 20 tips or tricks that every early career nurse should know.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Discuss one resource for supporting a transition into the nursing profession.
  • Describe at least two ideas that can be implemented by your next working shift to facilitate a transition into a nursing specialty.
