An innovative preceptor model (IPM) was developed to transition newly graduate nurses (NGNs) to practice. The imbalanced number of experienced nurses to NGNs during COVID-19 demonstrated a need for an "out-of-the-box" solution, one preceptor to two nurse residents, in the medical intensive care unit. The IPM was evaluated through surveys, postclinical immersion debriefs, and feedback sessions with the preceptors and NGNs. The IPM helped preceptors guide NGNs in their journey to independent practice.

Nearly one third of the U.S. nursing workforce is considering leaving their current job, with millennials new to the role most likely to leave. Newly licensed registered nurses (NLRNs) often feel unprepared and overwhelmed, contributing to the risk of turnover in this workforce segment and amplifying unstable healthcare environments. This evidence-based quality improvement project integrated a resilience and well-being program into a nurse residency program, improving resilience and well-being in NLRNs transitioning to professional practice.

Hospitals are experiencing an influx of patients in active behavioral crises, leading to restraints as a behavior management strategy. Over 100 staff participated in simulation training designed to manage escalating patient behavior. The training had a direct impact on the reduction of restraint use and increased preparedness and confidence of participants managing escalating patient behavior. Results suggest simulation can be an effective strategy to train medical staff to manage challenging behavior and reduce restraint use.

Results from a needs assessment conducted by nursing professional development practitioners across several clinics in the Midwest showed current educational methods to prepare for medical emergencies were insufficient. A champion model was used to complete in situ medical emergency response simulations. This proved to be an effective method for staff preparation when resources were limited and identified opportunities for practice improvement.

A multihospital study examined the impact of restricted clinical opportunities during COVID-19 on newly graduated nurses' experiences, self-reported competence, and self-reported errors upon entry into a nurse residency program and at 6 months. Newly graduated nurses' experiences (n = 2,005) were described using comparative data from cohorts before and during restricted experiences across 22 hospitals; minimal differences were observed. Nursing professional development specialists can utilize this information when creating and sustaining transition-to-practice programs.
