Internationally educated nurses (IENs) are recruited by U.S. healthcare organizations to fill staffing gaps.

Four themes emerged from eight interviews: Theme 1, Orientation and Onboarding; Theme 2, Cultural Differences; Theme 3, Communication; and Theme 4, Coping and Adapting to be Successful. Findings identified barriers and facilitators in IENs' transition to U.S. nursing practice.
