The effects of a bicultural training program in easing adjustment to the work world were studied on new graduate nurses working in eight medical center hospitals. Data from that study are used to examine program costs per new graduate-head nurse dyad. The cost effectiveness of the bicultural program is illustrated by comparing program costs with savings resulting from decreased turnover among new graduates who receive bicultural training. The mean time and cost estimates for the program may be used by others to determine cost effectiveness of bicultural training in their own institutions.
一项针对在八家医疗中心医院工作的新毕业护士的双文化培训项目对其适应职场的影响进行了研究。该研究的数据用于检验每位新毕业护士与护士长组合的项目成本。通过将项目成本与接受双文化培训的新毕业生离职率降低所带来的节省进行比较，说明了双文化项目的成本效益。该项目的平均时间和成本估算可供其他人用于确定其所在机构中双文化培训的成本效益。
