This study sought to gain the perspective of NMs who transitioned into the role. METHODS: A phenomenology method was used to interview 10 NMs regarding their experience of transitioning into the NM role. Meleis Role Transition theory provided the theoretical framework. RESULTS: Five themes were identified that related to the research questions: expectations, essential knowledge and skills, graduate education prepared, sought support and mentoring from colleagues, and role mastery not possible. Participants experienced role insufficiency due to lack of support and resources. CONCLUSIONS: Further research is needed to understand nurses' experience after completing an NM developmental program, contributing to role mastery.
