1 LSU Nurses Notes 5/4/14 LSU Health School of Nursing Transitioning to Practice Demetrius J. Porche, DNS, PhD, FAANP, FAAN As an undergraduate or graduate nursing student, you will be soon or in a few semesters entering the health care workforce environment at a time of health care reform. As you engage in your new professional nursing role as either a Registered Nurse (RN), Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), nurse educator, nurse executive or nurse scientist, you will be challenged with providing quality health care while maintaining economic efficiencies in a dynamic and changing environment. Once you have your license, there is an almost immediate expectation that you are to function in your new role in a competent manner. These expectations along with the dynamic and changing health care environment sometimes creates distress, emotional exhaustion, and decreased professional self-confidence. There are established reports citing that as many as 1/3 to 2/3 of new graduates change their place of employment within the first two years. In addition, other reports cite that as many as 1/3 of new graduates leave or consider leaving the nursing profession within three years of graduation. You have dedicated your time, energy, and financial resources to achieve the goal of graduating as a RN, APRN, nurse educator, nurse executive, or nurse scientist; therefore, you must not give up on this goal, it will be a wonderful career. However, you must prepare for this transition into practice. The Stages of Transition Model provides some guidance on what to expect in your transition. The model proposes the following stages: Initial - first 3 to 4 months is a period of time you should dedicate to adjusting, adapting to and accommodating the new realities of your work and personal life balance. During this phase you may experience some culture "shock" regarding the realities of the health care environment. Being emotionally aware of your feelings and debriefing with someone is critical during this phase. During this time, prepare to continue to be in a learning mode - continuing to learn nursing knowledge and skills, job expectations, levels of authority and responsibility etc; Stage 2 - occurs over the next 4-5 months, generally after the orientation period is over and you are alone without a preceptor. This period is characterized by the need to think rapidly and advance your knowledge and skill competency level. You become more aware of inconsistencies and inadequacies in the health care environment. During this stage, you must continue to be aware of your professional "self" or role and find balance between that professional role and your personal life. Generally, you are expected to function as an independent RN or APRN. During this time, it is good to consult and collaborate with experienced nurses. This consultation and collaboration builds your professional relationship and confidence. However, this consultation and collaboration should demonstrate that you are requesting advisement from a position of knowledge - don't continue to ask "dependent focused questions" during this time, ask a question but demonstrate that it is an informed question; and Dean s Notes continue on page 2 Demetrius Porche, DNS Professor and Dean

2 Lastly, the final stage occurs during the remaining period of your first year in practice. This period focuses on engaging in the larger nursing community, building relationships with coworkers, and reflecting on your "place" within the nursing profession. You will still be learning a tremendous amount, this is the period where you increase the depth of your knowledge not just the breadth of your knowledge. It is not uncommon at this time, even though you thought you would never go back to school, to begin considering other avenues or careers in nursing. This model only provides a framework for you to understand what you are experiencing. What you really want to avoid is the professional exhaustion and burnout along with transition shock. Some other helpful strategies during this time to assist with your transition are: Find a mentor and develop a mentoring relationship; Engage in reflective journaling; Develop your emotional intelligence skills; Exercise, it focuses your thinking, wards off negative thoughts and emotions; and Remember, we will always be here to support you, encourage you, and provide advisement to you as an alumni!

4 ( ) Historically, student-faculty relationships have been viewed as an integral part of the higher education learning process.

Your faculty advisor: Assists with course selection, scheduling and program planning; Provides guidance to develop, clarify and evaluate educational plans and goals; Assists students identify and explore alternatives; and Helps you assess consequences of decisions
