“…Studies on the orientation or transition period, the effects of orientation programmes and the elements of successful orientation are mainly done from the NGNs’ point of view (Bowles & Candela, ; Bratt & Felzer, ; Fink et al., ; Kovner et al., ; Malouf & West, ; Regan et al., ; Scott et al., ; Strauss et al., ). Previous studies about preceptors’ perception focus on preceptors’ role and preceptorship programme and NGNs’ readiness for practice (Hickey, ; Muir et al., ; Tracey & McGowan, ). Preceptors are an important part of the NGNs’ orientation period (Boyer, ; Fink et al., ; Rush et al., , ; Ulrich et al., ) and as they may work side by side with NGNs for a reasonably long period they have first‐hand information concerning orientation.…”

“…The long‐term influence of early work experience should be a key motivator for investing in the support of new graduates and new hires. Well‐developed preceptorship programmes aimed at transitioning new graduates into the workplace in the UK are worthy of implementation into other settings (Banks et al, ; McCusker, ; Tracey & McGowan, ). Excellent preceptoring requires release time, preparatory education related to pedagogy and reflective dialogue, and skills in developing trusting relationships (Carlson et al, ).…”

Aims and objectives To examine how experienced registered nurses in direct patient care learn within the constantly changing contemporary healthcare environment. The key objectives were to examine educational interactions amongst workplace, nurse and nursing practice, with a focus on the influence of context. Background Registered nurses must maintain competence throughout their careers. The related ongoing learning is triggered by external demands and nurses’ internal motivation. Experienced nurses, poised to retire, have worked through the recent tumultuous changes in health care and therefore provide insight into how they sustained excellent patient care. Design The methodology for this study was a grounded theory informed by symbolic interactionism. EQUATOR guidelines for qualitative research (COREQ) applied. Methods Data collection entailed semi‐structured interviews with experienced nurses across diverse settings and participant observation on two acute care units. Analysis of data was conducted using three‐level coding, constant comparison, theoretical sampling and extensive memoing. Results Refining nursing practice begins during nursing education and early employment. Getting grounded involves establishing key capabilities, specifically becoming self‐aware, setting high standards, cultivating healthy apprehension and seeing the whole patient picture. Three catalysts for workplace learning are mentor‐guides, workplace camaraderie and a highly functional workplace team. Refining nursing practice includes both formal and informal learning; however, significant nursing expertise is developed through puzzling and enquiring, an iterative process of learning while nursing. Conclusions Facilitating the development of capabilities for nurses’ workplace learning during nursing education and early work experiences contributes to excellent patient care. Healthcare organisations need to value and support the unique contributions of mentor‐guides in the clinical setting and promote individuals’ development of expertise by nurturing camaraderie and developing highly functional workplace teams. Relevance to clinical practice Attending to the processes and catalysts for nurses’ workplace learning will contribute to excellent patient care.

Buscou-se compreender a percepção de residentes e preceptores sobre a multiprofissionalidade e a interprofissionalidade de uma Residência Integrada Multiprofissional em Saúde Hospitalar. Foi realizado um estudo com abordagem qualitativa, envolvendo o Grupo Focal como estratégia de produção de dados, apreciados por meio da análise de conteúdo de Bardin. Na prática, os conceitos sobre multiprofissionalidade e interprofissionalidade ainda são fragilizados. Contudo, foram elencadas ferramentas que podem auxiliar nessa efetivação, inclusive, com vistas ao fomento do trabalho colaborativo. Há confusão e dualidade quanto ao (re)conhecimento do papel dos residentes nos cenários de prática. O preceptor consiste em um importante ator nas Residências Multiprofissionais em Saúde. Apesar dos avanços percebidos, a viabilização da interprofissionalidade ainda se configura como um desafio do setor saúde. Nesse contexto, os processos formativos contínuos, com base na educação interprofissional, constituem ferramentas estratégicas.
