“…This finding was in the same line with Cheng et al, [34] who mentioned that the mean and SD of nursing practice environment score was (91.33 ± 9.04). Moreover, the finding was congruent with Al Moosa, et al, [12] who stated that the total mean score of practice environment was moderate (M=2.9, SD=0.47), considering the majority of the respondents are staff nurses who routinely work at the bedside with patients, this relatively high mean score suggests favorability of practice environments.…”

Today's nurse leaders face many challenges and concerns in order to empower their staff through creating professional practice environment that require a new type of leadership in which authentic leadership is considered a positive relational-leadership approach, a. Aim: To examine nurses' perspective of authentic leadership and its relation to structural empowerment and work environment in critical care units at Shebin El-Kom teaching hospital. Subjects and Methods: Non-experimental descriptive correlational research design was employed in the conduction of this study. A simple random sample (244) of nurses having minimum one year of experience composed the study sample. Three standardized questionnaires were utilized which are Authentic Leadership Inventory, Conditions of Work Effectiveness Questionnaire and Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index. Results: The current study declared that the majority (98.4%) of nurses considered their leaders to be practicing moderate to high authentic leadership. Moreover, (95.1%) of nurses experienced moderate to high levels of structural empowerment. Likewise, about three quarters (75.4%) of nurses perceived high level of work environment. Conclusion and Recommendations: There was a significant positive relation among authentic leadership, structural empowerment and work environment from nurses' perspective. This study can help policy makers, administrators, and nursing leaders to detect areas in need of improvement in nurses' work environment and handle it, which leads to improvement in quality of nursing care and consequently patient outcomes.

“…The GSE scale has 10 items with a 4-point choice scale ranging from "1 = not at all true" to "4 = exactly true" [23]. GSE has been validated and used in several studies among undergraduate nursing student [24,25] and among registered nurses [26][27][28]. The internal consistency of the GSE in this study was good (Cronbach's alpha = 0.85).…”

Background Nursing care for terminally ill cancer patients is routinely provided by oncology nurses in Saudi Arabia. Shortages and retention of oncology nurses is an important concern for healthcare leaders. Objectives To identify and describe predictors of nurses’ intention toward working in the oncology specialty amongst three groups: undergraduate nursing students, oncology registered nurses and postgraduate oncology nursing students. In particular, the study sought to analyse association between individual characteristics, job-related factors, palliative care knowledge, attitude toward caring for dying patients, general self-efficacy, job satisfaction and intention to work in oncology. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 477 participants in five major hospitals in Saudi Arabia. The Palliative Care Quiz for Nursing, Frommelt Attitudes Toward Care of the Dying Scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale and Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire short form were used for data collection. Multilevel logistic regression analysis was used to identify predictors associated with intention to work in oncology. Results 43.9% (n = 208) of the sample reported an intention to work in oncology. Only one variable was a significant predictor of intention to work in oncology across all three groups studied: a more positive attitude toward caring for dying patients (Odds ratio (OR) = 1.09 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04–1.16]), (OR = 1.08 [95% CI 1.04–1.12]), (OR = 1.078 [95% CI 1.053–1.103] with P ≤ 0.001 for undergraduate, registered and postgraduate groups respectively. At post-graduate level, higher levels of palliative care knowledge and general self-efficacy were significantly associated with increased intention, whilst at undergraduate level, general self-efficacy was a significant predictor. Job satisfaction was a significant predictor of intention amongst registered nurses. Conclusions Attitude toward caring for dying patients and general self-efficacy appear to be the most important predictors of intention to work in the oncology nursing specialty. However, the significance of influencing factors varied between the different groups of nurses studied. Perhaps surprisingly, palliative care knowledge was an influential factor amongst the postgraduate group only. The study results provide important insights for nursing leaders and policymakers in Saudi Arabia to inform the future planning of nursing workforce strategies to address shortages and retention of oncology nurses.

“…Nursing professional self-efficacy had the greatest direct effect on explanation, and the largest total effect on attitude to families' importance in nursing care and nurse-parent partnership. Cheng et al [32] reported that the higher the self-efficacy perceived by pediatric nurses, the higher the professional perception, and the better the relationship between nurses and patients. Alavie et al [26], in their analysis of the concept of pediatric nurses' care self-efficacy, highlighted the importance of the provision of sufficient explanations to hospitalized children and their families, which improves the self-efficacy of child care to such a degree that FCC is fully implemented.…”

This study examined the effects of nurse–parent partnership, nurses’ attitude to families’ importance in nursing care, and nursing professional self-efficacy on the quality of pediatric nursing care. Background: The quality of pediatric nursing care based on family-centered care is defined by the qualitative care behavior of nurses from the perspective of hospitalized children and their families. Methods: The participants were 218 nurses in pediatric wards in hospitals. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlation coefficient, and path analysis. Results: Among the factors influencing the perceived quality of respect, explanation, and skillfulness, nurse experience showed the greatest total effect. The nurse–parent partnership had the greatest direct effect on the quality of respect and the greatest total effect on kindness. Nursing professional self-efficacy showed the greatest direct effect on explanation and the largest total effect on nurse–parent partnership and nurses’ attitude to families’ importance in nursing care. Conclusions: To improve the quality of pediatric nursing care, it is necessary to provide a working environment in which pediatric nurses can work continuously. Hospitals should also develop a program that enables proper collaboration between nurses and parents of hospitalized children and improves nursing professional self-efficacy.
