Assessment Task 1 Overview Transitioning to professional practice is a critical phase for the novice registered nurse. The transition period from student to registered nurse can be filled with many challenges. During this transition phase, graduate registered nurses are expected to demonstrate the knowledge, skills and attitudes associated with the profession, while adjusting to the “real world” of nursing. There is also an expectation that graduate registered nurses will begin to demonstrate clinical leadership capabilities when working in the Australian health care environment. Provide a critical analysis of current literature when answering the following questions: 1. The transition from student nurse to graduate registered nurse is a complex process. Recommend and justify one (1) personal, resilience-focused, strategy and one (1) organisational/workplace strategy that could be implemented to support you in your transition period. Use current nursing related literature to support your discussion. (500 words) 2. As a Registered Nurse, it is expected that you demonstrate comprehensive knowledge, skills, and attitudes. Identify two (2) strategies that you could adopt in your planning and implementation of care each shift and critically discuss one (1) evidence-based recommendation for each identified strategy that promotes efficient and effective patient care. (500 words) 3. Clinical leaders can be found in diverse clinical areas and involved in direct patient care or in clinical services. They are not identified because of their position, job title or role in the health service. Clinical Leaders hold very different roles and responsibilities to Clinical Managers. Identify two (2) evidence- based attributes adopted/ embodied by clinical leaders. Critically analyse how these attributes enable clinical leadership within an interprofessional team and throughout healthcare in Australia.

Introduction
The transition period when students become registered nurses is a critical phase where they face many challenges including high pressure. In this stage, it is required for the registered nurses to demonstrate their att
itude skills and knowledge effectively. In this regard, the following discussion is focused on answering three questions related to the required attributes of knowledge and skills for registered nurses to do their jobs successfully.
Question 1
One personal and resilience-focused strategy
The transition from a student nurse to a graduate registered nurse is a stressful and complex process. Thus, a personal strategy that can be considered by the registered nurses in this period is mindfulness-based stress reduction. This strategy is highly effective in enhancing residence among the nurses with reducing burnout and stress. As argued by Bumanglag, (2021), MBSR is highly effective in developing the cognitive, interpersonal and intrapersonal skills of nurses. Through this, individuals can become able to stay calm and present in the moment and be less impulsive while facing challenges. Mindfulness meditation was identified to be efficient in increasing satisfaction and engagement among nurses. Apart from taking formal training, the new graduates can consider practicing deep breathing and meditation anywhere and anytime. Similarly, Wexler & Schellinger, (2023), argues that implementation of the strategic MBSR program can decrease stress and burnout along with increasing mindfulness among nurses. It can increase residency by allowing awareness, relaxation and intentional change in behavior. Practicing mindfulness techniques can eventually become a subconscious experience which can promote a holistic approach to health during stressful transition periods. This will be helpful for the new graduate nurses to have a non-judgmental attitude towards their experiences. This attitude fosters a balanced emotional ability to manage all the responsibilities in the new role which ensures a smoother transition.
One organizational strategy
An important organizational strategy that can be implemented to support nurses during the transition period is structured preceptorship programs. In these programs, new nurses are paired with experienced mentors so that they can receive necessary feedback, support and guidance to effectively add to their new roles. As mentioned by Tucker et al., (2019), if the transition from Student nurse to registered nurse is poor, it can result in nurses leaving the profession within the first 12 months. In this regard, preceptorship support is identified to have a strong positive impact on increasing competence, confidence and workforce retention of new nurses. Moreover, with consistent guidance, they can develop a sense of belonging to better handle the stressful situation. The primary role of the mentor is to foster a learning environment along with becoming a role model for the new nurse. Through this, the nurses become more able to identify patient-centered goals along with identifying informed ways to reach their professional goals. Similarly, Quek et al., (2019), identify that the use of technology during preceptorship is necessary to communicate internal purposes and work-related information effectively. In this regard, the use of online messaging and mobile text messages is prioritized. This is also helpful in developing a close relationship between the preceptors and preceptees which is helpful for the new nurses to identify their mistakes quickly and ensure clinical safety in their practice.
Question 2
Two strategies for planning and implementation of care
Time management
The first strategy that can be adapted while planning and implementing care in each shift is time management. Through this, as a registered nurse resources and time can be allocated effectively along with identifying the needs of the patients. Time pressure is highly common among nurses, especially during their transition period to a registered nurse (Murray, Sundin & Cope, 2019). Thus, efficient time management is necessary for them to perform care-related activities safely. By sorting regular and urgent...
