The study assessed the perception of decision-making among nurse interns at Umm Al Qura University in Saudi Arabia. A questionnaire was administered to 30 nursing interns to evaluate their decision-making skills across various dimensions. The results found that clinical quality was perceived as the highest attribute, while clinical instructions were the lowest. Most interns agreed they felt stress in clinical settings and there was no significant correlation between decision-making and competence based on gender. The knowledge gained from the study can help nursing staff, interns, administrators, and the university to identify skill gaps and improve internship training programs.

Abstract
Objective This review investigated the effect of the various models of nursing care delivery using the diverse levels
of nurses on patient and nursing outcomes.
Methods All published studies that investigated patient and nursing outcomes were considered. Studies were
included if the nursing delivery models only included nurses with varying skill levels. A literature search was
performed using the following databases: Medline (1985–2011), CINAHL (1985–2011), EMBASE (1985 to current)
and the Cochrane Controlled Studies Register (Issue 3, 2011 of Cochrane Library). In addition, the reference lists of
relevant studies and conference proceedings were also scrutinised. Two reviewers independently assessed the
eligibility of the studies for inclusion in the review, the methodological quality and extracted details of eligible studies.
Data were analysed using the RevMan software (Nordic Cochrane Centre, Copenhagen, Denmark).
Results Fourteen studies were included in this review. The results reveal that implementation of the team nursing
model of care resulted in significantly decreased incidence of medication errors and adverse intravenous outcomes,
as well as lower pain scores among patients; however, there was no effect of this model of care on the incidence of
falls. Wards that used a hybrid model demonstrated significant improvement in quality of patient care, but no
difference in incidence of pressure areas or infection rates. There were no significant differences in nursing outcomes
relating to role clarity, job satisfaction and nurse absenteeism rates between any of the models of care.
Conclusions Based on the available evidence, a predominance of team nursing within the comparisons is
suggestive of its popularity. Patient outcomes, nurse satisfaction, absenteeism and role clarity/confusion did not differ
across model comparisons. Little benefit was found within primary nursing comparisons and the cost effectiveness
of team nursing over other models remains debatable. Nonetheless, team nursing does present a better model for
inexperienced staff to develop, a key aspect in units where skill mix or experience is diverse.

Integrative Health Care Shift Benefits and Challenges among Health Care Profe...ijtsrd
Nurses play an important role in supporting patients with any illness who often seek information regarding alternative therapy. Within their scope of practice, it is expected that nurses have sufficient knowledge about the safety and effective use of alternative therapies, and positive attitudes toward supporting patients who wish to use such therapies. An alternative therapy refers to the health treatments which go along with the medical care, and it is based on natural and traditional methods. It includes natural therapies, herbal medicines yoga, aromatherapy, batch flower medicines, spiritual therapies etc. They offer people the chance to try therapies outside of their standard medical care. These treatment methods are totally different from allopathic medical practices. An evaluative approach with one group pre test, post test design was used for this study. The study was conducted in selected rural areas of Tamilnadu. The samples comprised of 600 health professionals. Convenient sampling technique was used to select the samples. Data was collected using structured knowledge questionnaire before and after administering the structured health education program. The study proved their knowledge improved remarkably after administering the education. The findings of the study support the need for providing information to improve the knowledge of the health professionals regarding complementary therapies in the perspectives of integrating health care shift towards alternative therapies. So the findings have also proved that the information booklet was effective in terms of gain in knowledge scores.

ABSTRACT: Nursing students need information literacy and academic writing skills to conduct research. The
aim of this study was to explore the information literacy and academic writing skills of final year undergraduate
nursing students in Buea, identify the various challenges faced during academic writing and to outline their
perceived opinions on the effective assistance of educators during academic writing. A cross-sectional study
design was used. The study duration was for five months. A sample of 200 final year nursing students was
purposively selected to take part in the study from four nursing institutions in Buea, Cameroon and distributed
by probability proportionate to size. Data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire and analyzed
descriptively using SPSS 23.0. qualitative data generated from the open-ended questions were analyzed using
thematic content analysis, grounding and transcriptions. The Chi-square test was used to measure association
between categorical variables. Majorityof the respondents reported to have moderate information literacy skills
102(51.0%) and moderate academic writing skills92(46.0%). Also, they faced challenges during academic
writing such as: poor supervision 128(64.0%), ineffective feedback from supervisors 120(60.0%), poor
knowledge on search engines 114(57.0%), incompetency making conclusions on work read 112(56.0%),
ineffective teaching of academic writing 106(53.0%) and poor usage of search engines 102(51.0%). The
respondents suggested that effective and efficient teaching of academic writing 130(65.0%), effective feedback
80(40.0%), close supervision 60(30.0%), effective teaching of information literacy 25(12.5%) and search
engines 23(11.5%), and seminars 7(3.5%) could enhance their academic writing.

Mentoring, Nursing Students’ Opinions; a Pilot Studyinventionjournals
This study was conducted in order to receive the opinions of the nursing students that their clinical training carried out using one-to-one mentoring model. The sample of this descriptive study consisted of 43 first-grade students of the nursing department of a university. The opinions of the students about mentoring were asked by applying a form consisting of 37 questions developed by the researchers at the end of the spring semester of 2014. Age average of the students participating in the study was :19.2±1.1. When students were asked about their opinions on mentoring model, it was determined that the practice of mentoring positively changed the perspectives of the students concerning the profession of nursing after they started receiving education (90.7 %), they wanted mentor nurses and instructors to work together in the clinic (53.3 %) and they preferred one-to-one mentoring model (55.8 %). Opinions of the students were received on the problems they encounter in clinical practices, the sources of these problems and how to increase the efficiency of clinical training. Results of our study reveal that one-to-one mentoring model has a positive impact on learning experiences of the students. Increasing the efficiency of mentoring system will increase the success of the clinical training.

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

ABSTRACT
Aims: The study assesses the perception of decision-making and its effect on the
patient are among nurses at Umm-al-Qura University. Backgrounds: The interns
who are inducted into the program for a year are included, which leads to the
residency program. Methods: The cross-sectional quantitative study is adapted
from the sample of (n=30) to the nursing interns in Umm-al-Qura University
hospital. The clinical decision- making skills were measured as a part of a
questionnaire taken from Wiens (1991) reference article. The methods, such as
descriptive statistics, independent t-test, and Cronbach alpha, are utilized for the
study. Results: The findings show that the successful integration of the cross-section
survey was high, which indicate the high reliability of the results. Among various
means for the perceived dimension management received the lowest score in the
decision-making; clinical quality is regarded as the highest attribute for dimension
with a mean of 4.10, and the lowest dimension is the clinical instructions as a
dimension with a 3.3 mean. The percentage distribution according to the
perception of stress indicates that there is a 63.3% strong agreement and 36.7%
strong disagreement for both the stress that interns feel in the clinical setting.
Besides, there was no significant correlation found between decision-making and
competence among both males and female interns. Conclusions: The knowledge
gathered from the study is beneficial to the nursing staff, interns, administration,
and the university authorities to formulate the curriculum based on skill gaps that
interns faced during their internship period.
INTRODUCTION
The promulgation of advanced management practices in the healthcare sector can help change
decision-making skills among nursing interns. Previously, the concept of decision-making was
only restricted to doctors and upper nursing staff. As social literacy promulgates in the
professional workplace, the value of decision-making qualities became equally acceptable at all
levels, which include medical interns. Since the inception of nursing student in colleges, they
are trained for the holistic care of the patients and to remain in continuous collaboration with
the doctors and paramedic staff (Hussain, 2016). Nursing graduates or internees who practice
in hospitals often find it stressful, enduring, and effort-demanding for professional decision-
making. Besides skill and technical expertise, the nursing internees often face difficulties in
interventions, adjusting to cultural diversity, dealing with interpersonal skills, and adapting to
the advancements in the technology that is utilised in the healthcare sector (Melin 2017).
Therefore, it is necessary to implement decision-making practices that can help in building their
professional value and help them in managing the working staff.

The care, productivity, and quality of service are expected from every nurse, regardless of their
professional levels. From top to bottom level, including interns, senior nurses, and nursing
managers- all are expected to deliver the best service to patients. Internship being a first
experience of students into a professional world, it is found that majority of the interns faces
difficulty in recuperating the theoretical knowledge and applying it to practical life due to their
lack of decision-making. Despite of their rational understanding, the mindset lacks the effective
cooperation between inter-personal and intellectual knowledge. There are multiple models to
demonstrate decision-making integrity in nurses, but intern’s adversity is not fully explored in
this regard. Therefore, it is necessary to assess the perception of decision-making during
patient care among nurse interns. The research work will provide a pathway for future research
in nursing leadership and development at Umm-Al-Qura University. The research is of
significant importance as it focuses on the managerial and self-development skills of the nurses.
After completing the research work, the results can serve as a primary incentive to enhance the
interns’ productivity in hospitals. The study can inspire nursing management and help
understand the importance of decision making in the healthcare sector. Nurses perform a
crucial responsibility in delivering high-quality care and restoring health standards among
ailing individuals. They require positive perception, sufficient knowledge and critical decision-
making skills when dealing with patients to improve health outcomes. To develop these skills,
nursing students are subjected to baccalaureate activities, also known as an internship, to help
them transition from theoretical student teachings to practical and professional nurses. The
study purposes to assess the perception of decision among nurse's intern during different
patient care.
METHODS
Design
The study employed cross section research design.
Sampling and sample size
A simple random sampling method was adopted to select the participants from the eligible
baccalaureate nursing students at the faculty of nursing in Umm Al Qura University. The sample
size was estimated according to the study power 80%, level of significance was set at 5%. Then,
the required sample size was 250 nursing students. The researchers included intern nursing
students beginning their training year at different hospitals across Saudi Arabia and fourth-
year baccalaureate nursing student. The sample included students who were looking to
transition to professional practice by attending a preceptorship or mentorship program. The
participants were local and foreign interns attending their final year training and nursing
education at the faculty of Nursing at Umm Al Qura University. On the other hand, the exclusion
criteria comprised second or third year nursing students or interns who had completed their
training after graduating from the Umm Al Qura University. Students or interns from other
colleges or universities other than Umm Al Qura University were excluded from the recruitment
process. Inclusion criteria is male and female nursing intern were included to participate in the
current study. Exclusion criteria: staff nurse and temporary residing students were not part of
this research study
Procedure
Participants were recruited from Umm Al Qura University through an invitation link. The
respondents were accessible through the college of a nursing database within the Umm Al Qura

University. Some of the respondents were known to the researcher. However, the knowledge
of the respondents did not translate into undue influence over the participants due to the self-
administered of the online questionnaires.
Research Setting
The research questionnaire is sent to the nursing of the Umm-al-Qura Nursing Department.
Notably, only the permanent nursing interns are selected for the research work; temporary
residing students and staff nurse were not part of this research study. The Nursing Department
holds a significant position for being a pioneer in healthcare and research facilities. Professional
values, such as accountability, safety, excellence, collaboration, and transparency, make the
services of the Umm-al-Qura Nursing Department superior to other competitive healthcare
institutes.
Outcome measures
There is a tool known as the Decision-Making Questionnaire (DMQ) that was utilized for this
research. The tools comprise different questionnaire sections developed by Wiens (1991) to
define the characteristics of the decision-making qualities of a novice nurse. Generally, DMQ
comprises 40 items in the questionnaire, formulated by a researcher that characterizes
different decision-making dimensions as indicated in Appendix 1. The Modelling domain (15
items), b) the Cognitive ability (6 items), c) the Experience (7 items) d) the Management (4
items), e) the Clinical quality (2 item), f) the Instructions (2 item) , h) the Social skills (2 item) ,
i) the stress (2 items). The respondents were asked to give their responses on a 5-point Likert-
scale (Strongly Disagree to Strongly Agree). The total score of the questionnaire is 200, in which
the maximum score is 200 and the minimum score is 40. This questionnaire is valid and reliable
based on author, therefore no need to do validity and reliability. After collecting results, the
data will be treated using statistical tools using SPSS to find the mean, median, mode, and
standard deviation of different questions.
The tool was utilized to assist in formulating the delegated activities and task in order to
determine the personal response of each intern. These points can also be used to generate
expert opinion and reiterate the research work without making separate survey for individual
candidates. Also, it is a reliable and proven method of testing the perception of decision-making
among interns.
Data analysis
Processing the results and conducting statistical (t-test) evaluation on the data sets. Research
question test statistics is a basic tool for determining the significance of two-interval data sets.
Ethical consideration
The Committee from the Faculty of Nursing at Umm Al Qura University approved the research
protocol. Informed verbal consent was secured from each subject after the research provided
an exhaustive explanation of the rights to refuse to participate. In addition, the study
participants confidentiality was assured.
Results
The majority of the samples were females (86.7 %), and their age ranged between 20 and 25
years (Table 1). (96.7 %) of students their age 21 years and over, and 90% are single.

The results demonstrate that the mean and median scores of all four subscales and the total
score of do not show statistically significant differences between the students and interns. In
both, the scores are higher for the subscales of searching for alternatives and canvassing
objectives/values. The medians range between 3 (corresponding to 60% of the maximum
score) for the subscale of searching for information and unbiased assimilation of new
information among students and 3.3 (corresponding to 66% of the maximum score) for the
subscales of searching for alternative canvassing objectives/values among interns. Perceiving
the clinical decision-making competence, it was found that the majority of the participants were
21 years older and above (96.7%), whereas there was only one participant (3.3%) under 18-21
years, as indicated in Table 1. The gender frequency data reveals that 26 females (86.7%) and
four males (13.3%) are included in the study. From the significance of the martial data, it was
found that 1 participant (3.3%) was divorced, 2 participants (6.7%) were married, and 27
participants (90%) were single. All of these participants were undertaking a one-year
internship in the Umm-al-Qura Hospital. The content reliability tests produced that reliability
test from Cronbach alpha analysis shows that 𝛼 = 0.86. The scale as measured for 30 samples,
indicating a high correlative translation from the adaption, reliability and validation of the
available data (Table 2). The reliability score of 0.86 indicates a high correlative relationship
with the collected data.

The instrumentation of the results involves the integral study of assessing the decision- making
capability of nursing interns. Out of 103 expected responses, 30 active responses on the intern
nurses are collected for the survey. This makes the response rate 60%. The sample size for the
two-tailed test shows that the significant characteristic between the dimensions and effect size
is 0.5. These results show that the study was appropriate in producing the nominal size effect
and the exponential power of statistical analysis, which was sufficient for the correlations and
differences. The majority of the participants perceived that they are confident that the clinical
decision-making is inclined towards a practical approach and understanding its impact on the
quality service of healthcare service. The majority of the dimensions were related to Healthcare
Administration; this can help achieve the direct and indirect impact of the skills possessed by
the individual nursing student.

A similar study was conducted emphasizing the gender factor proposed that the females are
most likely to be confident, compared to the males. This shows the clinical decision making in
females is more likely to be perceived by females than males. Based on the extended survey, it
is evident that the self-efficacy and the importance of the nursing interns were grouped
according to the graduated age group, gender, training hospital, and length of internship period
(A. Aboshaiqah & Qasim, 2018). This is a primary study that caters all the reliability, testing,

further perceived the importance of clinical learning among Saudi intern nurses. The results
show that the interns perceived confidence in realizing the effect of clinical learning objectives.
From the analysis, as indicated in Table 3, it is evident that the percentage distribution and
means of the study sample according to their perception of modelling are interrelated. The
findings show that the ranking of the highest mean is significant for three dimensions: “I feel
confident about making decisions regarding patient care”, which is (4.07 ±0.907). “When I work
in the clinical setting, I feel I am well accepted and a valued member of the team” is second with
a mean of 3.87 ±0.730. Thirdly, the dimension “I have the necessary skills to make sound
decisions about patient care” has a mean of 3.83 ±0.834. While the lowest mean was given to:

on the unit tell me to do something different” with 3.17 ±0.791. Secondly, the “nursing staff in
my latest clinical rotation discouraged me from making my own decisions about patient care”
with 2.90± 1.15. Lastly, “my knowledge of the nursing process (assessment, intervention, and
evaluation) does not influence my decision-making regarding patient care” received a 2.90

Taken all the dimensions of interns-perceived confidence collectively, it is clear that the highest
level of competence is achieved for nurses who were provided ethical and individual practices.
Considering this fact, Table 4 represents that percentage distribution and means of study
sample according to their perception of cognitive ability, and the findings represented that
ranking of highest mean was given to: “I best solve problems or make decisions by analyzing all
the information available to me before forming conclusions” with a mean of 4.03±0.556.

Experience as a dimension is employed as an essential factor in decision-making among nurse
interns. Research by Nibbelink & Brewer (2018) shows that the experienced decision- making
use the classical approach in real-life circumstances. Comparative to the decision- making
patterns, experience as a dimension is based on critical factors, such as uncontrolled, time-
limited, and high-stress circumstances. Table 5 represents the Percentage distribution and
means of the study sample according to their perception of Experience. The study findings
represented that ranking of highest mean was given to: “Students with previous health-related
work experience make better decisions about patient care than those who do not have this

Nursing management comprises a major portion of the healthcare sector. It is a practice that
advances various evidence-based practices and technology. Although there are several
challenging factors that contribute to the demographic dynamics, a study from Nageshwar et
al. (2016) indicates a similar framework related to the post-operative framework among the
nursing staff. Compared to other results, as indicated in Table 6, it represents that percentage
distribution and means of study sample according to their perception of Management, the study
findings represented the ranking of means as: “the fact that I am evaluated in the clinical setting
influences the decisions I make about patient care is found” to have a mean of 3.93 ± 0.604.
Secondly, “the fact that I am evaluated in the clinical setting influences the decisions I make
about patient care” has 3.33 ± 1.06. Lastly, “the experience of developing and writing out
nursing care plans does not influence my ability to make decisions about patient care” has 2.57

DISCUSSION
A study on the perception by Ibrahim & Aly (2018) indicates the cognitive ability and
prevalence of intellectual skills on the decision-making capability. The research indicates that
the preceptors and educational training of the nurses tends to affect the cognitive ability in
decision-making. Comparing the percentage distribution and the study sample according to the
perception, it was found that 93.3% of the mean is related to the “I best problem to make a

decision is to analyze all information available to me and before forming conclusion”. However,
dimension, such as intuition of decision-making about patient care narrows –down to the
53.5% of strong disagreement among the nurse interns. Perception about the distribution of
study according to the interns’ experience is well-explained by A. E. Aboshaiqah et al. (2018),
which indicates that the development of self-confidence and the utilization of rationale is found
to effective in decision-making. The research work has proved that experience includes the
negative and positive factors that lead to appropriate decision-making. For instance, the
utilization of confidence-oriented communication and decision-making plays a critical role in
nursing practices. This leads to protocols that are essential for patient care and influences their
nursing practices' capability. Upon comparing the research results, it is proved that 80% of the
interns strongly agree of that student with previous health related work experience make
better decisions about patient care than those who don't have this experience. In contrast,
63.3% interns strongly disagree that in their latest clinical rotation, the nursing staff on the unit
encouraged students to decide patient care.
Nursing interns’ perception of the management practices is research by Abdel Kader,
Mohamed, & Abood (2012). It is evident from their findings that management practices and
their related education play a critical role in effective decision making. Besides improving the
situational awareness among professionals, it is helpful to cater to the patient’s management
and influence the effective interventions of dealing with emergencies and supporting abilities
that increases self-confidence. In our study, it is evident that 86.7% of interns strongly disagree
with the fact that the experience of developing and writing out nursing care plans does not
influence my ability to make decisions about patient care; however, 72.3% indicate that the fact
that I am evaluated in the clinical setting influences the decisions I make about patient care.
Since all this affect the percentage distribution of clinical quality is defined by all the above
factors; therefore, 80% of the interns believe that when they are caring for a patient, they feel
they are responsible for making the decisions about their care.
To date, the most comprehensive argument on the supplementary class of residency program
is influenced by direct instructions in promoting graduate critical thinking (Mousa, Menssey, &
Kamel, 2017). The critical analysis of the percentage distribution of the study sample in
accordance to the perception of instructions indicates that 50% of the interns strongly agree
and 50% strongly disagree with the fact that we consider what my instructor say when we think
about possible choices, we will make in patient care. Besides, the percentage of sample
perception of social skills strongly agrees with the 63.3% of the relationship with the clinical
instructions in recent clinical experiences negatively affect the attempt at decision making
about patient care. This shows that focusing on professional growth requires instructions and
both social skills. Perceptions of the stress related to decision-making in nursing interns are
assessed by the study (Sperling, 2020). This indicates that the preceptors that intern's guidance
and evaluation is necessary during the increased stress. This can either be related to interns
lacking skills and clinical knowledge, leading to subtle skills. Comparing to our research, the
percentage distribution according to the perception of stress indicates that there is a 63.3%
strong agreement and 36.7% strong disagreement for both the stress that interns feel in the
clinical setting, as it affects the ability to make sound decisions about patient care, and they find
that clinical experience is stressful, respectively.

In line with effective decision-making, it is integrated that dealing with the professional cases
has a consequential effect on the interns and their abilities to observe and apply theoretical
knowledge. Focusing on the findings from various studies, it is clear that the developing logical
pertinent is associated with the psychological and practice behaviours. The congruent study, as
explained by the holistic review, is based on the ambiguous recognition of nursing standards
and clinical practices needed to take a suitable decision. Van Graan & Williams (2017) asserts
that professional nurses should have thinking talents that are needed for the fundamental
practices and dealing with the scientific roles. These preceptors in the clinical instructions for
equipping the nursing students with the knowledge and the nursing profession. Considering
the participant's response regarding the lack of educational preparation as a virtue of decision-
making, the collected responses are gathered in terms of modelling, cognitive ability,
experience, management, clinical quality, instructions, and social skills.
CONCLUSION
The present study concluded that nurse interns perceived the highest level of their perception
toward decision making was the modelling dimension, followed by experiences, while the
lowest level of their perception was the social skills dimension. The findings from the study
confirm that the adapted dimension in the questionnaire is a reliable source for self—efficacy
and perceiving decision-making among nursing interns. In the light of the survey and analysis,
there are no statistical differences found between male and female students among the study
sample in all domains of decision making.
