Abstract

Throughout life, individuals are faced with various transitions, and how they manage these transitions impacts the transition outcomes and actual or potential alterations in health. It is imperative that nurses have knowledge of the conditions and processes of transitions as well as possible effects on well-being. From this perspective, nurses are able to intercede and assist individuals to positive transitional outcomes. The purpose of this descriptive phenomenological study was to describe the transition experience of international nursing students studying in the United States.
