Abstract
As healthcare facilities transition from initial phases of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is imperative to consider innovative strategies to overcome instructional challenges presented to nursing schools in order to maintain a competent workforce amidst nursing shortages and increasing patient volumes and complexity. Nursing professional development practitioners will play a pivotal role in revitalizing transition-to-practice programs to meet the demands of the new workforce. This article details an academia-practice initiative for newly licensed nurses who enter practice during the pandemic.
