The survey included items on general information as well as experiences in handoff training, necessity, training content, and items for a handoff training program in pediatric nursing.

Significantly, 98.3% of the respondents said that pediatric handoff training is necessary.

Admission process was placed first as the most critical circumstance for handoff (56.8%). High demands were observed for the necessity of training content for patients with respiratory problems.
