Abstract

Introduction: The implementation of induction programs appears to bring significant benefits for nurses, clients, and healthcare organizations, reflecting on the quality and safety of care provided. The existence of structured induction programs seems to enhance nurse performance and the efficiency of healthcare services. Objective: To identify the state of the art in the scientific literature on the nurse’s induction in surgical inpatient services, specifically regarding effective practices and areas for improvement. Materials and Methods: A narrative literature review was conducted. Article searches were performed in the PubMed, Scopus, and CINAHL databases between 2019 and 2023. Quantitative, qualitative, and review studies addressing the nurse’s induction in surgical services were included. Thematic analysis was used for article analysis. Results: The integration of nurses in surgical services is multifaceted, requiring continuous training, support from experienced supervisors, interdisciplinary collaboration, and positive leadership. Organizational challenges such as high workload and adaptation to new technologies must be addressed to ensure a favourable work environment. Organizational culture directly impacts nurse satisfaction and retention, influencing the quality of care provided. Conclusion: Proper integration of nurses improves the quality of care and health outcomes for clients, reducing postoperative complications and increasing client satisfaction. Well-structured integration programs, with clinical supervision, specific training, and continuous support, are essential to prepare nurses for challenges in a surgical context.
