The NCLEX, a pivotal tool in our profession, is designed to evaluate the fundamental knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary for safe, effective nursing at the entry level. At the heart of this endeavor is a shared understanding of entry-level nurses' evolving characteristics and attributes. As the practice of entry-level nursing continues to evolve, it is crucial to grasp the prevalence of entry-level nurse characteristics and practice behaviors, as well as their duration.
