title: Easing the transition from hospital nursing to home care: a research study.
abstract: With the increased need for staff nurses, home healthcare agencies can ease the transition for experienced nurses who have worked in settings other than the home. Formal instruction, employment orientation, and preceptorship can effectively prepare new home care nurses for their duties.
