THRIVEable work environments: A study of interplaying factors that enable novice nurses to thrive

Abstract

A greater understanding of the impact of the role of interplay will inform transition programs by enabling nurse leaders to cater to the unique needs of new graduates as they step over the threshold of professional practice.

The impact of transition programmes on workplace bullying, violence, stress and resilience for students and new graduate nurses: A scoping review

“…Only six studies reported workplace violence and bullying (Dames, 2019; Fink et al, 2008; Glynn et al, 2013; Kowalski & Cross, 2010; Pizzingrilli & Christensen, 2015; Rush et al, 2014). These studies used different terms such as threatening, harassment, hostility and violence.…”

“…These studies used different terms such as threatening, harassment, hostility and violence. NGNs appear to experience bullying and harassment despite those NGNs being enrolled in different TPs and different settings (Canada and the United States; Dames, 2019; Fink et al, 2008; Rush et al, 2014). However, NGNs in these studies reported that the programmes supported them, empowering them to address these issues by providing preceptors and managers' support and positive peer review.…”

“…Only two studies reported on resilience (Chesak et al, 2019; Dames, 2019). They found that resilience education and training within the TPs decreased stress, and NGNs reported that the resilience programme helped them to identify how they deal and cope with stressful situations in the work environment (such as heavy work load, new procedures, lacking knowledge about the unit environment and feeling of disrespect hostility and disapproved from colleagues) by teaching them some strategies.…”

“…Only six studies reported workplace violence and bullying (Dames, 2019;Fink et al, 2008;Glynn et study reported that the programme supported them during their transition, especially the preceptors who were their advocates and taught them how to care for themselves and be more assertive in the role during the experience of hostility. This included weekly debriefing with discussions about the NGNs' clinical issues and concerns.…”

Nurses' willingness to participate in public health emergency: A qualitative study in China

“…10 In addition to the investigation of nurses' willingness to take part in the care of COVID-19 patients, 9 we also need more comprehensive and further understanding of the underlying reasons and influencing factors of nurses willingness by qualitative research. 11 The theory of planned behavior (TPB) proposed by Ajzen in 1988, puts forward that the decision-making process of individual behavior is related to information processing and expectancy-value. 12 TPB has a good explanation and predictive power for predicting and analyzing behavioral willingness, 13 which mainly includes three variables: attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavior control, it is suitable for the situation where people think they cannot completely control their behavior 14 as might occur in nurses' willingness to care for COVID-19 patients.…”
