Background: Nurses working in emergency departments are overworked and exposed to frequent stressors over time, leading to compassion fatigue, burnout, and secondary traumatic stress.
Aims: This study aimed to assess the levels of compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction, and examine the relationship of these two variables with specific demographic, health-related, and work-related factors among emergency nurses in Jordan.
Methods: This is a cross-sectional study.
Aim: The aims of the study were to identify professional values among third- and fourth-year baccalaureate nursing students at private and public universities in Jordan and to investigate the demographic variables correlating with professional values.
Background: Educational curricula reinforce professional values among nursing students.
Method: A cross-sectional design was used; the questionnaire included a demographic variable survey and the Nurses Professional Values Scale-3.
Background: Research studies regarding nurses' knowledge attitudes and practice in the older adult are limited. Furthermore, none of these studies attempted to investigate the relationship between knowledge attitudes and practice. Furthermore, little studies compared nurses' knowledge, attitudes and practice between Eastern and Western countries.
