In today’s healthcare system, informatics has become an essential part of the infrastructure to improve access to health information, make patient care safer, decrease health care costs, and improve outcomes. The evaluation of these services is an important component of these programs and health professionals should have the requisite knowledge, confidence, and skills to evaluate the impact of the services they provide. However, Nursing staff are seldom adequately prepared by their training or work experience to do this well. In this article the researchers provide a suitable framework and guidance to enable nursing staff to appropriately undertake useful program evaluation. We introduced and discussed Program Evaluation and provided guidelines for its implementation. The framework presented distinguishes program evaluation from research and encourages nursing staff to apply an evaluative judgment, in order that value the merit, worth, and significance of programs can be made. Examples from our evaluation practice are drawn on to illustrate how program evaluation can be used across the Nursing care scope.

The Policy provides a consistent framework for operational guidelines and standardized processes for decision making. Policy Development Framework provides protocols and clarifies roles and responsibilities in the policy development process. This article aims to document and discuss the process of development cross training policy formulation, including its practice and outcomes. In this policy, we developed the cross training framework including definitions, purpose and procedures that reflect the scope of policy analysis. This comprehensive conceptual framework may serve as a “road map” for researchers and healthcare policymakers who are interested in the development, monitoring, implementation, and analysis of nursing cross training policies.

Policy briefs are often recommended as a key tool for communicating research findings to policy makers. Some knowledge transfer programs have emerged in the past years to promote the use of research. One of those program was the policy brief. It is a short document synthesizing the results of one or multiple studies. In this policy brief, the researcher used one of his research work has been conducted 10 years ago. The purpose of a policy brief is to inform policymakers’ decisions or motivate action. The Policy brief approach allows for a more comprehensive view of evidence use and to decide more specifically in which ways policymakers use research evidence. Further research needs to be done to evaluate the various forms of uses of policy briefs by policy makers.

A position statement is a written statement from an organization that discusses a current clinical problem. That suggests an established and agreed upon approach to this problem by the organization. Position statement synthesizes newly available information and reinforces best nursing practices and give detailed policy or guidelines for practice. The main aim of this paper is to reducing Emergency Department Congestion. In this Position statement published by the researchers will benefit the health care community, in general with the help of inspiring practice improvement and up to date clinical care.

Poor sterilizing is led to transfer of so many human diseases such as dysentery, cholera, hepatitis A and cholera. In this review, the important of sanitization to the human diseases is explained and the dynamical relationship between them is illustrated. Sterilizing and hygiene are very important to defeat diseases by washing hands and using alcohol sanitizer to clean floor, stairs offices and indoors. In addition, many types of sterilizers that used to clean are introduced with their components. The risk of using alcohol a lot is discussed also it is compared with normal washing with soaps and non-alcohol materials use. Moreover, the important relation between sterilizing and recent disease such as MARS and Covid-19 is covered in details. Eventually, the antimicrobial resistance that produced from the overuse of the sanitizers is discussed with the aim of covid-19 pandemic.

Despite notable improvements in the understanding of the pathophysiology of sepsis, innovations in hemodynamic monitoring and methods of resuscitation, the cases of sepsis and septic shock still has a higher healthcare and economic burden and mortality. Yet, the significance of the nurses’ role is not explored and utilized enough in the fight against sepsis and septic shock. To give emphasis to the nurses’ role, this paper is a systematic review of existing reviews on sepsis following a research question: In patients with a suspected or confirmed sepsis, does specialized sepsis nursing assessment and intervention tool to standard nursing assessment tool improves management, outcome, and length of stay starting from the time of admission? This research question was formulated using the participant, intervention, (comparison), outcomes, and time frame (PICOT) formula. That is: (P) In patient with existing or confirmed sepsis, (I) does specialized nursing assessment and intervention tool (C) to standard nursing assessment tool only (O) improves management, outcome, and length of stay (T) starting from time of admission? Literature reviews and studies cited in this paper that explored sepsis recognizing the significance of the nurses’ role were published in either international or national journals and online databases including CINAHL Cochrane, Proquest, Medline, PubMed, and Google Scholars. The archives were searched using the following eligibility criteria: Nurses and Sepsis/Septic shock; Nurse Led Pathways and Sepsis/Septic Shock. Eligibility criteria of participants included suspected or confirmed blood infection. Out of 30 articles found, only 6 were included in the review based on the eligibility criteria set out. This paper found that nurse- led sepsis pathways played an important role in improving the management and outcome of sepsis. It also found a significant reduction of length of stay starting from the time of admission for those who are suspected or confirmed presence of blood infection. In its recommendation, the paper suggested the creation and implementation of a nurse-led pathway for use within the hospital initially and then throughout the catchment areas eventually.

Nurses, especially ICU staff, complain of high level of stress regarding the workload. This can be related to many factors such as: nurse-patient ratio, doctor’s orders, timing, hospital environment to name a few. Nursing workload can be defined as all nursing work that must be carried out over a defined period of time. For example the effect of workload on covid-19 patients in intensive care units (ICUs) showed that higher RN staffing was associated with lower levels of hospital related mortality. Each additional full time equivalent RN per patient day corresponds to a 9% reduction in odds of death in ICUs. The aim of this study was to determine the extent of the effect of workload on nurses and other associated factors. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in July to September 2020. 406 staff nurses were enrolled in the study. Instrument of the study was a questionnaire on the effect of workload on nursing staff who were taking care of covid-19 patients. Multiple logistic regression was utilized to identify the factors associated with high nursing workload of nurses. By using bivariate analysis; workload was found to be significantly associated with: nurse patient ratio, duty hours and type of department; the critical care units such as ICU, CCU and HD complained of higher workload (28.8, SD 3.7) than general units (20.7, SD 3.0) the P-value was 0.033. There was no significant difference between the workload and other demographic variables such as: environmental status, nationality, and type of hospital.

Telemedicine and remote healthcare have become increasingly important in the healthcare landscape, but they present ethical implications surrounding equitable access to care and patient privacy. Policymakers, healthcare providers, and stakeholders must address these ethical dimensions and establish guidelines to promote responsible and ethical practices. Investments in broadband infrastructure, affordable technology access programs, and digital literacy education programs are potential solutions to bridge the digital divide and ensure equitable access to care. Telemedicine and remote healthcare offers advantages such as cost savings, convenient and timely access to care, and improved care coordination but require compliance with data protection laws and regulations to ensure patient safety and quality of care. Adequate time should be allocated to address patient concerns, and patients must be informed adequately about the limitations, benefits, and potential risks of remote consultations or monitoring to uphold patient autonomy and facilitate informed decision-making.
