Facilitators and Inhibitors of LPN-to-RN Student Transition: A Cross-Sectional National Survey
No full textAIM
The aim of the study was to describe the transition conditions (facilitators and inhibitors) encountered by licensed practical nurses in registered nurse educational programs (LPN-to-RN students).
BACKGROUND
LPN-to-RN students are important because they may increase diversity and numbers of RNs. However, no prior study has examined transition experiences of LPN-to-RN students across the United States.
METHOD
A cross-sectional survey of LPN-to-RN students was conducted using Meleis et al.’s transition theory.
RESULTS
Students (n = 873) from 131 nursing programs responded. The most common facilitators were personal motivation and believing the content taught was valuable; the most common inhibitors were juggling multiple responsibilities and personal stress levels. Several significant relationships between transition conditions and program/student characteristics were identified.
CONCLUSION
Faculty in LPN-to-RN programs can increase support for students by refining their own actions and addressing potential challenges when LPN and non-LPN nursing students share classes
