The innovational idea of nurse residency programs (NRPs) being implemented to help address the transition to practice of new nurses in acute care settings has been proven to show impact on the socialization of new graduates with other multidisciplinary roles, increased evidence-base practice, increased confidence, increased competence in the nursing role, prioritization skills, leadership and increased effective communication among peers in the healthcare organization (Goode, Ponte, & Havens, 2016).

The most integral part of the nursing residency program are the preceptors, mentors, and educators. The preceptors, mentors, and educators are key factors for success for the nursing residency programs. Evidence supports the need for standardization of nursing residency programs which should address skill development and provide support to the residents 6-9 months post hire period (Goode, Glassman, Ponte, Krugman, Peterman, 2018). This in return would save several health care facilities money in the long run and improve retention rates.

“The current national turnover rate for all nurses is 18-27% with retention of 73-82%. Turnover is very costly for health care organizations, with estimates of $88,000 for a single nurse who decides to leave the organization” (Van Camp & Cappy, 2017).
