Abstract
This paper presents the findings of a study which explored the lived experience of ‘managed time’ for new graduate nurses working in a neonatal unit in the public health system in Australia. Information was collected through conducting in‑depth focused interviews with six nurses. The data generated was analysed using Colaizzi’s (1978) method of data analysis. Five themes emerged including: knowing, planning, support, fulfilment, adapting and being flexible. These exhaustive themes were integrated into a fundamental structure of ‘managed time’. The findings of this study have revealed detailed insight into the phenomenon of managed time for new graduate nurses working in a neonatal unit.
