Biography

Biography: Lobel Lurie

Abstract

The escalating increase in the futuristic demand for healthcare workers link international workforce migration to fill the need. Cyclic in nature, the global migration of nurses is a major avenue to recruit and retain qualified nursing staff outside the country. The literature in transitioning foreign-educated nurses (FEN) into the workforce has been numerous in the past, however, there is little documentation in the transition utilizing standardized on-boarding competencies based on nursing professional development standards, incorporation of lived experiences from current FENs, and on-boarding best practices. Guided by Meleis’ Transitions Theory, the three developed on-boarding competencies were focused on FEN, Leadership, and Organizational competencies. A qualitative descriptive phenomenological design using semi-structured interview guide utilizes the intentional process of knowing and understanding of integration process by seeking to understand the phenomena and find meaning. The promoted targeted educational investment in foreign-educated nurses could be instrumental in the successful transition to practice for safe, effective, and efficient delivery of care within the U.S. healthcare.
