      ab: Orientation of novice nurses aims to ease the transition to clinical practice and often follows a tiered, progressive approach. After experiencing numerous issues with the orientation of novice nurses, the professional development department at a community hospital piloted a different approach, layering practice skills rather than increasing the number of patients. The professional development team reviewed the literature on nurse orientation, developed a plan, tracked the progression of novice nurses, and introduced this orientation model to various stakeholders. Through a pilot program, the professional development team began small and expanded the use of this model across all medical/surgical units in this hospital. Although this task-layered model has not reduced the orientation period, it has demonstrated positive results regarding comfort, confidence, and retention among nurse residents, and has improved their experience from student to practicing nurse.
