Hi How do I find research studies regarding new graduate nursing programs and nurse retention

Answer

Thank you for contacting the library.  To conduct an initial search on your topic, I recommend the following: 

  • Navigate to the Online Library home page
  • Click Find Articles and more
  • Click on ProQuest Central or All EBSCO at the top of the page.
  • To begin, try using some of the following search terms:
  • Nursing "graduate program"
  • Nurse retention
  • Nursing education
  • "master's program" nursing
  • "master's degree" nursing
  • On the next screen, you will see many results.
  • Be sure to check the Full Text option on the left hand side of the screen to retrieve search results with the full article available.
  • You can also narrow by subject on the left hand side by selecting any of those suggested.  These terms may also help guide your thought process in your search. 
  • Additionally, you can narrow by document type in the ProQuest databases, including case study. 

Here are a few articles that may assist you.
