Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) technology and digitalization in healthcare have advanced quickly in recent years, altering all sides of daily life and playing an expanding role in nursing education and healthcare. In order to succeed academically and utilize technology in nursing education and practice in the future, nursing students must have adequate digital health literacy. Aim of the study: This study aimed to measure the digital health-literacy levels among baccalaureate nursing students and its relation to their perception and attitudes towards the application of AI. Design: A descriptive correlational design was utilized to fulfill the aim of this study. Setting: The current study was conducted in the Faculty of Nursing, Cairo University. Sample: A convenient sample of (128) Baccalaureate nursing students who registered for the 4th academic level -1st semester of 2019/2020 academic year. Tools: Tow tools were used as follows; I. Nursing students' perspectives on artificial intelligence questionnaire and II. Self-administered Digital Health Literacy scale. Result: The majority of baccalaureate nursing students have a moderate to a high level of digital health literacy. Also, there was a higher perception among baccalaureate nursing students regarding the application of AI in nursing. Moreover, their attitudes and feeling toward AI were moderate. Conclusion: The study finding revealed that there was no statistically significant correlation between the total score of AI in nursing and the total score of digital health literacy among baccalaureate nursing students. Recommendations: Develop an innovative undergraduate curriculum that includes opportunities for students to experience digital healthcare technologies such as AI to improve their digital competency and assist learners in its entry-level nursing programs access to the necessary digital tools.

Background: Leadership style has been given importance in contemporary research because leaders are considered to be an essential part of an organization's success. Toxic nurse managers can have a detrimental impact on the organization's bottom line by increasing nurse's absenteeism, creating job dissatisfaction and unnecessary job stress, resulting in high staff turnover and counterproductive work behaviors (CWB). Aim: The present study aimed to examine toxic leadership of nurse mangers and its relation to counterproductive work behaviors and intention to quit from the perspective of staff nurses. Design: A descriptive, correlational and comparative design was utilized to fulfill the aim of this study. Sample: A convenient sample (n=190) of staff nurses who agreed to participate in the study were included. Setting: The current study was conducted in two different selected sectors at Cairo governate. Tool: Three tools were used I. Toxic Leadership Behaviors of Nurse Managers (ToxBH-NM) Questionnaire; II. Counterproductive Work Behaviors Questionnaire (CWBs) and III. Nurses' intention to quit Questionnaire (NITQ). The results: The study revealed that, the majority (73.6%, 63.1 respectively) of staff nurses perceived a low level of overall nurse manger toxic leadership at both Hospitals. While only (14.9%, 15.5% respectively) of them perceived a high level of overall nurse manger toxic leadership at both Hospitals. Moreover, (100%) of staff nurses perceived a low level of overall Counterproductive Work Behavior at private Hospitals compared to (40.8%) of staff nurses perceived moderate level of overall Counterproductive Work Behavior at public Hospitals. Furthermore, (51.7%, 48.3% respectively) of staff nurses had low to moderate intention to quite level at private Hospitals compared to (33.0 %,514% respectively) of staff nurses had low to moderate intention to quite level at public Hospitals. While, only (15.6%) of staff nurses had low intention to quite level at public Hospitals. In addition, there was a statistically positive significantly correlation between total staff nurses perceived toxic leadership with their Counterproductive Work Behavior (r = 0.250& p= 0.02) at private hospital. While, there was a statistically positive significant correlation between total staff nurses' perceptions of toxic leadership with their intention to quit (r=0.352** and p= 0. 000*) at public hospital. Conclusion: Overall, the study concluded that, the majority of staff nurses perceived a low level of nurse manger toxic leadership at both private and public hospitals. All staff nurses perceived a low level of overall Counterproductive Work Behavior (CWB) at private hospital compared to around half of staff nurses perceived moderate level of CWB at public hospital. Around half of staff nurses had low to moderate level of intention to quite at both private and public hospitals. Also, there was a highly positive statistically significant correlation between staff nurses' perception of nurse managers' toxic leadership, with their Co...

Design: A descriptive correlational design was utilized to achieve the aim of the present study. Sample: A convenient sample (n=118) of nurses who working at Internal Medicine Hospital and who agreed to participate in the study were included. Setting: The study was conducted at Internal Medicine hospital at Cairo University Hospitals. Tool: Four questionnaires were used as follow; nurses ' perception toward their professional rights, nurses` job satisfaction scale, nurses` professional commitment questionnaire and nurses` organizational commitment questionnaire. Conclusion: The current study concluded that, more than half of the sample was perceived their professional rights and more than half of the sample was satisfied with their job and more than half of the sample was not committed to nursing profession, while, near to the half of the sample was committed to their organization. Moreover, there was a highly statistically negative correlation between staff nurses' professional rights and their job satisfaction. In addition, there was significant positive correlation between nurses` professional and organizational commitment and nurses` perception about their rights. Recommendation: Increasing the awareness of nursing personnel about their professional rights by holding workshops and lectures on a regular basis through the training and education department team in the hospital and monitor and report hospice professional nurse's turnover rates periodically in light of management's enhanced focus on improving nurses` satisfaction, professional and organizational nurse's commitment.

Background: Reporting of near-miss safety events is commonly assumed to enhance safety in organizations, as such reporting enables managers to identify and address accident risk factors. Aim: This study aimed to explore nurses' willingness to report near-miss and their perception of patients' safety culture. Methodology: A cross-sectional descriptive research design was used to conduct this research. A convenient sample of 300 nurses over a period of four months, were recruited from Beni suef university hospital and Beni-Suef Chest Hospital. Three tools were used as follow; a sociodemographic form; nurses' willingness to report near-misses scale and nurses' perception of patient safety culture. Results: There was a significant positive linear correlation between nurses' willingness to report near-misses and their perception of patient safety culture at r. 0.568, and p. value <0.01. Also, the ANOVA analysis explained that critical department, experience, and attended training courses had a high-frequency positive effect on nurses' willingness to report near-misses. Conclusion: Nurses generally showed a moderate willingness to report near-misses and a moderate perception of patient safety culture. Recommendation: Integrate near-miss reporting and patient safety education into staff training to increase nurses' awareness of the value of near-misses reporting which will significantly improve patient safety.
