By providing a well-structured and engaging learning experience, a nursing orientation process contributes to the nurses' confidence, competence, and ability to provide safe and effective patient care. Knowledge can be matched with clinical skills through various learning methods, including classroom lectures, hands-on training, online modules, simulations, and interactive workshops.

In the emergency setting, the new graduate or experienced nurse without ED experience must learn to manage a diverse patient population in a high-stress, complex environment. The transition from student nurse to emergency nurse or med-surg nurse to emergency nurse is turbulent. The preceptor is crucial to the development and successful growth of independent practice.

Teaching new nurses to exercise clinical judgment is crucial for ensuring they can make informed and effective decisions in the complex and dynamic healthcare environment. Purposeful steps must be taken: Begin by fostering critical thinking skills. Provide opportunities for hands-on experience and exposure to diverse patient cases. Emphasize the importance of evidence-based practice. Provide new nurses with access to experienced preceptors. Conduct debriefing to help new nurses understand their decisions' rationale and learn from successful and challenging situations.

A traditional preceptorship orientation model often doesn't allow the new emergency nurse to experience all patient situations or types. Caring for complicated patients in the care environment creates stress and chaos for the new nurse in the emergency department. By developing a well-thought-out and evidence-based simulation curriculum, the new emergency nurse experiences different patient situations in a safe learning environment.
