Background: With the increasing development and integration of information and communication technology (ICT) into hospitals, there remains a lack of understanding of the impact of these technologies on the hospital's largest core users: nurses. Humber River Hospital (HRH), one of the first hospitals to completely integrate technology across all hospital systems and workflows, has sought to understand how ICTs have transformed the clinical working environment. Objective: The aim of the study was to achieve a deeper understanding of the lived experiences of nurses practising in North America's first digital hospital. Methods: The methodological approach was informed by van Manen's hermeneutic phenomenological methodology. Data were gathered through in-depth semistructured interviews with eight nurses at HRH. Thematic analysis was conducted using the van Manen and Colaizzi methods of data analysis. Results: Six thematic categories that formed the nurses' lived experiences of working in a digital environment were identified: safety, time, teamwork, technology failures, patient responses and adapting.

Men and women who violate traditional expectations with regard to professional status are perceived negatively by others, and can face negative outcomes in the workplace. Here we examine whether these negative perceptions extend to observers' evaluations of status violators' intimate relation ships. We employed a fictional scenario depicting a heterosexual married couple, manipulating the professional status of each character while holding all other information constant. Participants (N = 396) projected lower relationship satisfaction onto the husband when he had lower professional status than his wife (nontraditional condition). Participants in this condition also liked and sympa thized with the wife less, and perceived her as having more power in the relationship than her husband. Finally, these effects were mediated by ratings of the characters on perceived normative masculinity/femininity. These findings contribute to existing research on the penalties that both male and female gender role violators face, suggesting additional consequences for outsiders' perceptions of their intimate relationships.The 2010 Dodge Charger Super Bowl ad reflected a growing rhetorical shift in the war between the sexes. In several quick vignettes, we glimpse into the lives of four men on the edge of a nervous breakdown. Brow-beaten by their female partners' demands that they contribute to the housework and compromise their masculinity by carrying lip balm, they take refuge in their choice of vehicle, the Charger: "Man's Last Stand." Flowever, the second vignette calls into question how much of the men's apparent suffocation truly stems from their relationships: "I will be at work by 8 a.m.; I will sit through 2-hr meetings; I will say yes when you want me to say yes; I will be quiet when you don't want to hear me say no." Perhaps the root of these men's seeming distress is a lack of professional power, and the ad's characterization of the men's relationships as unsatisfying and their partners as controlling is merely a convenient (and possi bly reflexive) foil. Here, we examine whether men lower in professional status are, in fact, viewed by perceivers as rela tively dissatisfied with their relationships.In the months surrounding the ad's release, articles flooded the media projecting "the death of macho" (Salam, 2009) and announcing the "end of men" (Rosin, 2010). Indeed, there seems to be an ever-increasing perception that women are outstripping men professionally, and usurping men's position

We combined three independent streams of workplace climate research, safety, violence prevention, and civility, to devise a general safety climate scale that explicitly addressed a variety of risks. A confirmatory factor analysis suggested that a higher-order factor may be responsible for the similarity in relationships across these safety-related climate measures with exposure to organizational hazards and resulting employee outcomes. As a result, a concise 10-item measure was developed and validated to assess a possible general safety climate factor. Further analyses suggested that the use of a general safety climate measure did not attenuate the relationships with workplace hazards and employee outcomes. Although different safety-related climate variables may be theoretically distinct, there may not be a measurable benefit in promoting one form of climate over others. Future studies should consider employing the general safety climate measure in place of domain-specific climate measures, unless the domain-specific climate is solely of interest.
