Additionally, the program is designed based on the following research-based models:

Benner’s Novice to Expert Theory

Advocates for opportunities where nurses can apply and integrate theoretical knowledge with actual events.

Married-State Preceptorship Model (MSPM)

Partners preceptee to preceptor at all times, working together and managing a full patient load from the very beginning, with tasks increasing as the preceptee transitions into practice.

Casey-Fink New Nurse Experience Survey

Evidence-based survey commonly used to assess transition to practice programs. Insights into skills, support, patient safety, stress, communication, leadership, professional satisfaction.

Donna Wright Competency Model

Competencies are identified, assessed and validated at the point of care with multiple validation methods. Licensed RNs must be empowered to own their practice and competency development and held accountable to practice to the full extent of their licensure.
