This research explains the adaptation of newly arrived nurses in the hospital environment. Materials & Methods: This is a qualitative study in which the required data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 11 nurses entering the hospital from May 2014 to July 2014. Nurses were selected through targeted sampling from hospitals affiliated to Isfahan University of Medical Sciences. Recorded interviews were analyzed using content analysis methodology. Results: According to the interviewees, the five main concepts, including exposure to work environment conditions, professional imaging, underlying predictions, gap between the status quo, the role of the patient and colleagues, were extracted from the data. Conclusion: The results from research data suggest that newly arrived nurses face different challenges for adaptation in the workplace, and if they, as well as their associated managers, are better aware of these challenges. The transition from hospitalization to professionalization will be easier and less stressful and anxiety, which will provide better service and more effective communication that will increase the satisfaction of the service. Also, given the time and money spent on training nurses and their professionalization, they will ensure their survival in nursing care and their commitment to their service.
