Many students use them for learning, often without proper academic policies or guidelines. Nursing undergraduate curricula include both theoretical and practical aspects of learning, in which critical thinking is essential, especially for clinical decision-making. This review explores the effects of AI language models on the critical thinking skills of undergraduate nursing students. Sixty-seven articles published between 2020 and 2025 on AI in nursing, medicine, or higher education, and its impact on learning and cognition, were analyzed and synthesized. Findings revealed that AI language models offer benefits, limitations, and ethical concerns. Benefits include improved academic writing, rapid access to information, and support for self-directed learning. Limitations include overdependence, biased content, and reduced social learning. Ethical concerns include confidentiality and plagiarism. In nursing education, AI models affect critical thinking both positively and negatively, enhancing simulated clinical decision-making but potentially reducing independent analysis and interactions with real patients. Studies recommend developing guidelines, training, and balanced integration to maximize benefits while minimizing risks.</p>","PeriodicalId":54104,"journal":{"name":"Creative Nursing","volume":" ","pages":"10784535261497719"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149185734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nursing education provides an important opportunity to develop students' sustainability consciousness and planetary health competencies. This study examined nursing students' sustainability consciousness, including self-reported knowingness, attitudes, and stewardship-related behaviour, and their perceived planetary health competency, and explored associated sociodemographic and academic factors. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted among 300 undergraduate nursing students at the College of Nursing, Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz University, Saudi Arabia. As these outcomes were assessed using self-report measures, the findings reflect students' reported perceptions and behaviours rather than objectively observed knowledge or practices. Data were collected using the Short Sustainability Consciousness Questionnaire and the Planetary Health Competency Questionnaire. Descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, correlation tests, group comparisons, and multiple linear regression analyses were performed. Students demonstrated relatively high sustainability consciousness and moderate-to-high perceived planetary health competency. Overall sustainability consciousness was not significantly related to planetary health competency. Previous sustainability education was associated with higher sustainability consciousness, whereas the examined sociodemographic and academic characteristics were not significantly associated with planetary health competency. Nursing curricula should integrate sustainability and planetary health education across academic levels and provide experiential opportunities that connect environmental knowledge with sustainable health-care practices, stewardship, and climate-responsive nursing.</p>","PeriodicalId":54104,"journal":{"name":"Creative Nursing","volume":" ","pages":"10784535261495571"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149139342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article describes an innovative partnership between a college of nursing and a major urban art institute designed to encourage nursing faculty and students to explore sociological complexity through facilitated engagement with visual art. Nursing faculty collaborated with the museum's Director of Gallery Activation to offer Civic Wellness workshops, during which participants spent two hours at the museum observing and reflecting on selected artworks. Workshop participation was voluntary and not tied to coursework or job requirements, creating a low-stakes environment for personal and professional growth. Postworkshop surveys captured quantitative outcomes and qualitative reflections. Between July 2024 and March 2025, two workshops engaged 17 participants, with 15 participants (9 students, 5 faculty, and 1 staff) returning postsurveys. Eighty-seven percent reported the workshops cultivated their curiosity and social awareness, and 67% reported an improvement in their perceived ability to provide culturally responsive care after the workshop. Students also noted exposure to new populations and health topics through engaging with artworks depicting diverse cultural contexts and narratives. Feasibility evaluation results suggest that engaging with the humanities can encourage vulnerability, reflection, and empathy, offering learning experiences not easily replicated in traditional nursing curricula. Nursing programs should consider integrating humanities-based partnerships to support personal and professional growth for students and faculty.</p>","PeriodicalId":54104,"journal":{"name":"Creative Nursing","volume":" ","pages":"10784535261493619"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149076692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their implementation in practice, however, depends not only on the strength of the evidence that underpins them, but also on the organizational and political conditions that enable their continuity over time. In health-care settings characterized by administrative instability, political interference, patronage-based appointments, and high workforce turnover, adherence to protocols becomes especially fragile. This practice-based analysis examines how such conditions affect clinical governance and argues that nursing leadership plays a pivotal operational role in safeguarding the technical coherence of care. Drawing on frontline managerial experience and recent literature, the paper explores how politically volatile institutional environments can undermine protocol continuity, weaken safety culture, erode team trust, and generate tensions between formal authority and technical authority. It also considers the practical implications for nurse leaders and health-care managers working in systems where nontechnical pressures may reshape priorities, disrupt implementation, and compromise the sustainability of evidence-based practices. In these contexts, sustaining protocols requires more than technical design; it demands leadership capable of protecting standards, reinforcing accountability, and preserving continuity amid recurrent political and organizational disruption. The analysis further proposes that nurse leaders engage upstream through nonpartisan policy advocacy, participation in governance structures, and coalition-building when political and social conditions repeatedly threaten care continuity.</p>","PeriodicalId":54104,"journal":{"name":"Creative Nursing","volume":" ","pages":"10784535261492027"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2026-09-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149026857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
