Newly Licensed Registered Nurse New Cohort 1 Survey, 2009

The Newly Licensed Registered Nurse Cohort 1 Survey, 2009 is the first wave of a multi-wave panel survey that studied newly licensed registered nurses who obtained their first license to practice between August 1, 2007 and July 31, 2008. It was conducted as part of the RN Work Project, a national study of new nurses funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The survey interviewed the nurses about their jobs, turnover, education, intentions and attitudes--including intent, satisfaction, organizational commitment, and preferences about work.
