      ab: Nurses have a minimal introduction to the oncology specialty, and their exposure to radiation therapy is further limited to a superficial understanding of the patient experience. Radiation is a primary mode of oncologic treatment; thus, a comprehensive cancer center developed a 13-week training program to enhance education and clinical skills for nurses transitioning to the radiation subspecialty. Nursing retention rates were analyzed at 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months. Two-year postanalysis results show a 92.3% retention rate. With the cost of onboarding a single registered nurse (RN) ranging from $52,100 to $52,350, nursing leadership must develop innovative, evidence-based methods to support RN transition to practice.
