Although leadership has been widely studied during the pandemic, little is known about how first-line ICU managers experienced their work supporting staff and shaping organisational and relational preconditions for patient safety. This qualitative study aimed to address this gap by exploring first-line ICU managers’ descriptions of their work during the pandemic.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Methods&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Individual interviews were conducted with 15 first-line managers (nurses and physicians) who had operational responsibility for ICU staff, including nurses, physicians and assistant nurses, during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic (1 March–30 September 2020). Participants were recruited from five ICUs across three Swedish hospitals.

According to the first-line managers, they experienced conflicts between maintaining efficiency and ensuring preconditions for patient safety, often struggling to balance care with limited resources. They explained how flexibility, continuous learning and mutual trust contributed to an adaptable healthcare environment that enabled the identification of safety risks.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Conclusions&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;This study highlights the unique role of first-line managers in shaping organisational preconditions for patient safety in ICUs during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A nurse practitioner and an off-site clinical pharmacist applied a validated five-step regimen simplification tool. The nurse practitioner identified residents who may benefit and had a desire to simplify their regimen. The nurse practitioner and pharmacist then conducted video case conferences to discuss simplification opportunities. The nurse practitioner decided which simplification opportunities to implement in consultation with residents and general medical practitioners (GPs). The primary outcome was feasibility (recruitment and retention, protocol adherence, and stakeholder acceptability). Secondary outcomes included change in the number of medication administration times per day, medication and behavioral incidents, falls and fractures, and hospitalization at 4 months.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Results&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Telehealth collaborative care was delivered according to the protocol, with one or more simplification opportunities identified for 18 of 21 residents. The most frequent simplification opportunities involved changing a dose time or formulation. The intervention was well received by the interviewed stakeholders. At the 4-month follow-up, 47% of residents had at least one simplification recommendation implemented and one-third had a reduced number of regular daily medication administration times. Compared to the previous quarter, there was a non-significant decline in medication incidents (24%–18% of residents), behavioral incidents (48%–35%), and falls and fractures (48%–41%). No hospitalizations were reported among residents who completed follow-up.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Conclusions&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;This nurse practitioner–pharmacist telehealth intervention was feasible and acceptable.

A total of 1037 psychiatric nurses from 34 hospitals in China completed self-report questionnaires between July and August 2024.

Workplace violence was measured using the Workplace Violence Scale. Latent profile analysis was conducted using Mplus 8.3 to identify distinct ward atmosphere profiles.

Between January and April 2026, 27 clinical nurses and nurse managers from hospitals across China were recruited using purposive, snowball, and theoretical sampling. Semistructured in-depth interviews and online textual data from Chinese social media platforms were analyzed. Data analysis followed the constant comparative method, with iterative open, axial, and selective coding conducted to generate and refine categories.

Between June and July 2025, the workload of nurses working in the chest diseases and urology wards of a tertiary teaching hospital in Türkiye was evaluated. A total of 20 nurses were observed during morning and evening shifts over a 5-week period. The ONN was calculated using three key indicators derived from the patient classification system: patient classification score, nursing intensity coefficient, and total care time.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Findings&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;The calculated ONN was consistent with the current staffing levels in both wards. Higher care intensity (nursing intensity score: 9.44) in the chest diseases ward and patient volume (patient classification score: 55.75) in the urology ward emerged as the primary determinants of workload. Time–motion analysis showed that 22.8%–26.6% of nurses’ working time was allocated to direct care, 31.1%–32.9% to indirect care, and 34.6%–42.3% to personal tasks. Direct care time per patient was 12.60, 18.77, and 34.52 min for Group 1, 2, and 3 patients in the chest diseases ward and 11.18, 21.91, and 36.89 min, respectively, in the urology ward.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Results&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;These findings indicate that nursing workload is shaped by different dynamics across clinical settings and that nurses allocate a limited proportion of their working time to direct patient care.
