Description The results of this needs assessment demonstrate that while it would appear at face value diverse nurses feel inclusion, there is an undercurrent of discontent or dissatisfaction, with diverse nurses reporting an unmet need for mentoring and leadership support. Needs assessments completed by electronic means are cost effective, replicable, and offer value to the organization. While further study is certainly needed, the findings from this needs assessment do make a beneficial contribution to the literature about the challenges faced by newly hired diverse nurses. Findings provide valuable evidence to make recommendations, which include: Creating a culturally inclusive program for both leadership and staff members, Development of a formal mentoring program for diverse nurses, Perform assessment annually. Future work might include: Expanding assessment to achieve a larger sample, Evaluate differences of how inclusion is viewed between Bachelor's prepared and Associate RN's, Evaluating the effect of diverse nursing leaders on newly hired nurses perceptions of inclusion.
