“…In this regard, the findings of Birden et al are in line with the results of the present research (51). Salam et al findings regarding training indicated that academic courses are conducted taking into account training (50). It seems that the lack of research with conforming findings is often due to the weakness of evidence and the lack of relevant research in health systems, and this cannot be regarded as a disagreement over the effectiveness of different teaching methods.…”

Background: Today, nursing is getting more complex and specialized and nursing management is of great significance. Nursing managers play an essential role in organizing, providing services, and enhancing the quality of nursing care. For this reason, this study aimed at determining the framework, dimensions, and requirements for selection, training, and recruitment of nursing managers in selected hospitals of different countries to provide a review and comparison of experiences. Methods: A mixed-method design was used to provide a model for selection, recruitment, and training of nursing managers in Iran, 2017. With a comparative study, the variables were identified. A data extraction form was used to collect data and content analysis was used to analyze data in the comparative phase. Finally, the initial questionnaire was compiled and approved by the experts. The final questionnaire was then given to 250 individuals and data were analyzed using factor analysis in Amos software. Results: 50 main items were extracted based on comparative findings in the three main dimensions: selection, training, and recruitment. 17 items were related to selection, 12 to training, and 21 to recruitment. Selection based on human skills of qualified people, teaching specialized principles of nursing management in the nursing university curriculum, and the existence of a planning committee for job analysis had the most impact on the selection, training, and recruitment of nursing managers in hospitals. Conclusions: Professional associations under the supervision of the ministry of health and paying attention to human skills of qualified individuals can play an important role in selecting nursing managers. Therefore, these associations should be used more. Recruitment standards and criteria in the field of nursing management requires more information clarification and factors such as education, organization, and institutionalization should be discussed and localized according to the conditions of different countries.

The primary aim of patient care is to provide the best medication that can produce the best treatment with minimal or no harm. This is only possible when the entire health care workers play their card well through correct prescription, dispensing, drug administration and adequate patient monitoring. However, the outcome is not always favorable because of the limited time undergone by the drug during premarketing studies as well as the bias by the pharmaceutical-industries to get approval from regulatory-agencies. As a result of this many safety data and information are lacking. Therefore, in order to preserve patient confidence and integrity of pharmaceutical products, post-marketing surveillance has become necessary. The methods commonly used in post-marketing surveillance include spontaneous reporting, data mining and active reporting which have meaningfully contributed to patient safety. Despite the improvement made, spontaneous reporting have some disadvantages such as underreporting, poor quality of reports, and cannot be used to determine risk rate. Pharmaceutical companies as owners of the drug have noteworthy role to play in adverse drug reactions monitoring and can adopt similar techniques used by the regulatory-agencies and academic research. Unfortunately, this has led to reporting bias. This has suggested the need for more awareness and educational intervention for health care professionals at all levels. The curriculum of training medical and health related students should be incorporated with PV programme. This appraisal has described how to identify adverse drug reactions and methods used in reporting, current developments in pharmacovigilance and role of pharmaceutical-industries in drug safety studies.

“…Professional progress is tough if the school suffers from harmony on clear understanding of the fundamental elements of professionalism (Brown et al, 2009). The fundamental elements of professionalism are unique and equally applicable to any profession for the benefit of common people (Salam et al, 2012a). Professionalism must be trained obviously and assessed commendably (Elnemr, 2010).…”
