Troubleshooting use plan, do, check action (PDCA), through a guidebook, Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) orientation, supervision, and bedside teaching, socializing, discussions, and demonstrations. The results achieved were increased understanding of the supervisory nurse regarding the orientation period and its role in guiding new nurses with an average score of 65.71 before the activity and 87.86 after the activity.
