The Nurse Readiness Crisis Report

Helping educators support the transition to clinical practice

Less than 10% of newly graduated nurses demonstrate entry-level competencies, and the shock of transitioning into clinical practice can cause new nurses to consider leaving the profession. Enhancing nurse education is the critical path to keeping students enrolled, improving patient outcomes, and stabilizing the nursing workforce.

To understand how to address this challenge — and what could move the needle for success — UbiSim surveyed 800 nursing students and new nurses from August 13-29, 2024. The Nurse Readiness Crisis Report reveals what recent graduates say is holding them back and what current students say is missing from their education.
