Evaluation of Outcomes From an Online Nurse Residency Program.
Journal of Nursing Administration 2018 October
OBJECTIVE: This retrospective study examined the nurse outcomes from new-graduate nurse residents completing an online nurse residency program (NRP).
BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that hospital-based NRPs help new graduates transition from beginners to competent nurses. However, NRPs can tax the resources of smaller institutions, making such a program unrealistic. Little is published exploring the efficacy of online programs for nursing residents.
METHODS: Surveys assessing the impact of the online program were completed by residents in an online NRP at initiation, 6 months, and at completion.
RESULTS: There were statistically significant improvements in organizational and prioritizing skills; confidence in communication with other healthcare providers, patients, and families; and improved leadership ability. The percentage of residents reporting negative safety practices and patient errors decreased over time.
CONCLUSIONS: An NRP using online educational modules results in nurse outcomes comparable to those reported from traditional models.
