Turning feedback into foresight: Leveraging nurse resident perspectives for program improvement

August 22, 2024

This presentation, led by Brittany Beckmann, MSN, RN, NPD-BC, is designed to provide Nurse Residency Program (NRP) Coordinators with key insights on improving their programs through nurse resident feedback. It is grounded in data gathered from focus groups conducted during the 2024 NRP annual conference, which aimed to evaluate the program and understand nurse resident perceptions of support and professional satisfaction. The presentation will outline the focus group findings, emphasizing the unique perspective they offer in understanding challenges and opportunities within nursing programs. The data reflect the viewpoints of nurse residents, providing a comprehensive understanding of support and satisfaction within the program from those directly experiencing it.

Following the presentation of data, an interactive group sharing activity will be facilitated. This activity will encourage coordinators to reflect on their current program offerings and consider how they can utilize the insights from nurse residents to enhance their programs. The objective of this presentation is not only to share data but also to foster dialogue and inspire innovation in program improvement. By sharing these findings and prompting reflective thought, the goal is to collectively improve nursing programs and better support nurse residents.
