Statistician for DNP project
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
Hello, my name is Jaylin Myles and I am a family nurse practitioner obtaining my doctoral degree that will be complete this upcoming May.
My DNP dissertation is entitled "Improving the Competency and Retention of New Graduate Registered Nurses in the Emergency Department".
New graduate nurses (NGNs) entering the nursing profession are central in helping to lessen the burden of the nursing shortages seen nationally. Transitioning from student to professional licensed new graduate nurse (NGN) has proven to be a difficult and complex task for NGNs, especially those entering the emergency nursing specialty. Difficulties transitioning NGNs impact health care organizations locally, nationally, and worldwide. This can lead to decreased retention, competency, and negative patient outcomes.
The purpose of this project is to examine the feasibility and efficacy of an emergency department-focused NGN training program designed to increase retention, readiness-to-practice, and competency of NGNs by improving their transition into emergency nursing practice. Licensed registered nurses (RNs) with less than 12 months of nursing experience employed on an emergency care unit will be entered into a 9-month emergency department-focused transition-to-practice program. The program is designed to increase NGNs’ perceived competency, readiness-to-practice, and retention.
Retention data and results of the Casey-Fink Nurse Retention Survey during months 1, 4, and 9 of the program are structuring the data analysis. Data can be sent upon request
