This study aims to explore in-depth the relationship between nurse placement and performance in order to promote nursing excellence. A quantitative analysis was conducted using a descriptive correlational methodology. The population in this study consisted of 214 executive nurses at Medan Government Hospital, with a sample size of 139. The study's findings revealed that nurses performed exceptionally well in providing nursing care, scoring 94.2%, with those well-placed scoring 90.6%. The results from the Spearman rho correlation test showed that nursing qualifications, experience, work environments, and team dynamics have significant relationships with nurse performance. Meanwhile, the nurse's rho factor towards patients and the policy or regulation component showed low significance and relationship. The novelty of this study lies in its indication that nursing performance can be enhanced by aligning the placement of nurses with their abilities and experience, and fostering a work environment and positive team dynamics that encourage collaboration and efficiency. These findings provide vital insights for nursing staff management in order to enhance nursing care quality and patient health outcomes.

Communicating about its risks with a didactic perspective so that citizens become aware and take action to avoid radon remains a challenge. This research is framed in Spain, where 17% of the territory exceeds the maximum radon limits allowed by the WHO, and aims to study the role and impact of the media in radon risk communication. A mixed methodological design is applied, combining content analysis of news published in the last two decades by local media in the most affected areas with interviews with journalists and a survey of citizens to provide a multi-perspective approach. The results show that, although news coverage of radon is becoming more frequent, it is a topic that fails to position itself on the agenda for effective communication. The media are the most frequent source of information on radon, although they are not considered by the public the most trustworthy one.

This study employs a qualitative analytical approach, reviewing existing literature and regulatory documents to identify gaps in the EU user testing policies for PILs. It focuses on the diversity of participant samples, the independence of the testing process, and the robustness of user testing protocols. Findings indicate that current user testing practices often lack diversity and may be biased when pharmaceutical companies conduct their own tests. Additionally, there is a lack of user testing protocols for translated PILs, potentially compromising their accuracy and cultural relevance. To improve the efficacy of PILs, it is essential to include diverse and representative samples in user testing, mandate independent third-party evaluations, implement protocols for user testing on translated PILs, and ensure continuous updates to guidelines based on the latest best practices in health communication.
