Abstract

|
|
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to provide an in-depth understanding of the clinical experience of new nurses through integrated review and synthesis.
Methods: This study was performed according to the qualitative meta-synthesis method proposed by Atkins et al. The final six articles were meta-synthesized to comprehensively describe the clinical experience of the new nurse.
Results: There were 44 themes derived from the collected literature, which were integrated into 8 themes. The clinical experience integrated among new nurses is as follows. New nurses struggling from immaturity in new clinical environment, physical hardship caused by working conditions at the clinical practice, feeling burdened by the increasing workload in an unfamiliar work environment and excessive role, lacking professional knowledge and skill about clinical practice. In addition, parents, caregivers, colleagues, and senior nurses make it difficult or supportive to adapt clinical practice for new nurses. However, new nurses put effort in obtaining knowledge to become a qualified nurse, and discover themselves who are adjusting to clinical practice.
Conclusion: These results provide an in-depth understanding of the clinical experience of new nurses, which can be used as basic data in the development and application of educational programs to help new nurses adapt to their clinical
settings.
