520 _aAbstract Starting a career in nursing can be both exciting and overwhelming, especially when newly graduated nurses enter clinical settings and realize that applying what they learned in school is not always as straightforward as expected. This study aims to explore novice nurses' perception in integration of theoretical knowledge into their actual nursing practice. Using a descriptive-correlational design, the study gathered data from 100 novice nurses working in various healthcare institutions in Dumaguete City. A survey questionnaire was used to assess five key areas such as knowledge, practice, environment, learning, and demographic background. The results showed that while novice nurses generally feel confident in their theoretical knowledge particularly in areas like evidence-based care and critical thinking, many still face challenges when trying to put that knowledge into action. Interestingly, they rated the support from their clinical environment and the opportunities for continuous learning quite positively, suggesting that the environment does play an important role in helping them adapt. The findings highlight that bridging the gap between theory and practice isn't just about what nurses know, it's also about where they work, who mentors them, and how supported they feel. This study calls for stronger mentorship programs, clearer clinical guidelines, and more hands-on learning opportunities to help novice nurses transition smoothly and confidently into professional practice.
