“…The increased emphasis on patient safety in hospitals has led to a deeper understanding of the importance of a positive work environment for nurses and interprofessional teamwork in healthcare. There is global interest in improving nurses' working conditions 1,2 . The work environment is defined by Lake as the “organizational characteristics of a work setting that facilitate or constrain professional nursing practice” 3 .…”

Background Fostering a healthy work environment becomes a necessity in health care institutions that value quality care and patient safety. However, limited studies investigated the impact of work environment characteristics including staffing and teamness among healthcare teams on adverse patient events in Oman. Aims To examine the (1) impact of work environment, interprofessional teamness, staffing levels on adverse patient events and (2) predicting factors of perceptions of work environment among nurses in the Sultanate of Oman. Method A cross‐sectional descriptive design was utilized to collect data from 2113 nurses. Participants completed a self‐report questionnaire that included a set of instruments. Results The results showed a strong positive relationship between work environment and teamness (r = 0.59, p < 0.001). Nurses working in a favorable environment that has positive teamwork reported a reduction in adverse events including patient and family complaints, patient and family verbal abuse, patient falls, nosocomial infections, and medication errors (p < 0.001). There was a nonsignificant correlation between staffing and adverse patient events. Conclusion Fostering a healthy and supportive work environment continue to be crucial for ensuring patient safety. Nurse administrators should strive to improve work environment through creating a culture that values interprofessional teamwork and collaborative relationships.

It is the key and difficult problem for the current project management to consider the multi-objective optimization of the four elements, such as quality, duration, cost and safety. To improve the accuracy and efficiency of project management during the engineering construction, considering the advantages and disadvantages of the traditional quality-cost-time model, the four elements were regarded as a system, and a multi-objective optimization model was established. The improved ant colony algorithm was used to carry out multi-objectives of construction projects to overcome the premature defect of the traditional method. The optimal plan of the project was found and the overall efficiency of the construction project management was improved. Results show the optimized ant colony algorithm can avoid the low efficiency of the optimal solution search and the shortcoming of the initial pheromone. The engineering practice proves that the enhanced algorithm has solved the problem of the multiobjective optimization of quality, duration, cost and safety. The obtained conclusions are of significant reference value to direct the similar engineering practice.
