The participants were asked about the extent of their internalization of EBPs, the organizational learning activities in their ward, and individual and ward characteristics. This study employed two-level hierarchical linear modeling with nurses’ internalization of EBPs as the objective variable, eight factors of the Group Organizational Learning Activity (GOLA) Inventory as the explanatory variable, and individual and ward characteristics as control variables. Nurses’ individual scores for the eight factors of the GOLA Inventory were analyzed by centering within clusters, and the wards’ mean GOLA Inventory scores were also examined. To show the effectiveness of concrete activities for the internalization of EBPs, we calculated the contextual effects of the wards’ organizational learning activities on the internalization of EBPs.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Results:</b> As in the primary analysis, a total of 422 nurses from 56 wards in 12 hospitals responded to the survey and 360 nurses from 48 departments were included in this secondary analysis.

A common strategy is to invest in international standards or accreditation models such as ISO, HCAC, or Magnet. This research seeks to examine the impact of the Magnet Model and Accreditation on healthcare organizations and their transformational journey toward nursing excellence and patient-centered care. The paper explains the Magnet Model’s five key tenets—transformational leadership, structural empowerment, exemplary professional practice, fresh knowledge and innovations, and empirical results. The research examines the importance of Magnet status and highlights its significant benefits. Achieving Magnet status positively impacts nurse satisfaction, patient outcomes, and overall organizational success. However, there are a number of implementation challenges in the United Arab Emirates, and this study is to answer this research question “What are the challenges in implementing Magnet Accreditation in the United Arab Emirates on a wider scale?” As such, qualitative research began by conducting a literature review, complemented by input from fifteen (15) subject matter experts operating within the healthcare industry. By examining a wide range of published articles and existing literature, this review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of patients’ perspectives. The significance of this research lies in its ability to consolidate and analyze existing knowledge in the field. By synthesizing the available literature, it offers valuable insights into the pros and cons of Magnet Accreditation in general and in the UAE market in particular. The findings of this review suggest 5 key challenges for an effective Magnet Model implementation: (1) misalignment with local regulatory environments, (2) minimal improvement to nurses’ working conditions, (3) claims of no real change to nurses or patients, (4) significant financial investment yet questionable ROI, and (5) numerous workforce considerations.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":49297,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nursing Management","volume":"2025 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/jonm/7690350","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143522004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The LTC-NA population is expanding, highlighting the necessity to create a secure work environment. However, little is known about how workplace violence poses a threat to the mental wellbeing of LTC-NAs across different work locations.</p>\u0000 <p><b>Methods:</b> This observational cross-sectional study was conducted from October 2022 to July 2023, involving a survey of 937 certified LTC-NAs recruited through convenience sampling from various Taiwanese LTC units. Participants were evaluated for experiences of four types of workplace violence (physical, psychological, verbal, and sexual harassment) using a disseminated questionnaire. Mental health was assessed using the 5-item Brief Symptom Rating Scale, and client-related burnout was evaluated with the 6-item scale from the Chinese version of Copenhagen Burnout Inventory.

Conduct a baseline survey before online learning. Evaluate team working ability, clinical thinking ability, confidence in skills, and active participation on the first day after simulated training and the 30th day of clinical practice. On the 30th day of clinical practice, satisfaction and skill level assessments will also be conducted.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Results:&lt;/b&gt; At the reaction level, the satisfaction rate of nursing interns is 98.80%. At the learning level, there was a statistically significant difference (&lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &lt; 0.001) in the team work ability and clinical thinking ability of nursing interns before training, on the first day after training, and on the 30th day of clinical practice. At the behavioral level, there was a statistically significant difference (&lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &lt; 0.001) in the skill confidence and participation initiative of nursing interns before training, on the first day after training, and on the 30th day of clinical practice. At the result level, on the 30th day of clinical practice, the nursing intern team’s cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills assessment scores were all good or above, with an average score of 90.09 ± 1.58.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/b&gt; The Kirkpatrick model can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills training for nursing intern teams.
