The article reports on research which was conducted to investigate the support that newly qualified nurses need when transitioning from student to registered nurse. The research, which reviewed 24 papers, found that newly qualified nurses need support from management and that preceptorships were effective in helping them transition from students to registered nurses. Recommendations on preceptorships from the Nursing and Midwifery Council and Britain's Department of Health are discussed.
