TL;DR

It may be that current NGN Transition Programmes are more focussed on organisations' desire to "orient" NGNs to working within the acute care setting than facilitating personal transitions to practice.

Abstract

Although NGNTPs have the word "transition" in their title, it may be that current programmes are more focussed on organisations' desire to "orient" NGNs to working within the acute care setting than facilitating personal transitions to practice. Further investigation of the impact of NGNTPs on NGNs and the associated multiple ward rotations is required.
