Aims: The purpose of this scoping review is to map and synthesize research studies addressing the factors that impact leadership behaviours of front-line nurse managers.
Background: Leadership is a fundamental component of the role of front-line nurse managers. Ineffective leadership is associated with costly outcomes; thus, organizations seek effective strategies to facilitate consistent demonstration of leadership behaviours.
Evaluation: Using a scoping review methodology, findings from 26 empirical studies were mapped to identify barriers and facilitators of leadership among front-line nurse managers. Major categories included personal and environmental factors with subthemes of personal characteristics, competencies and social support.
Key Issues: Available evidence captures the influence of personal characteristics, education, competency and formal social support on leadership capacity. The role of informal social support was not captured.
Conclusions: Multiple personal and environmental factors influence the capacity for leadership behaviours among front-line nurse managers. Strategies such as leadership development programmes, mentorship and peer support programmes, and work environments that support relational and structural support may increase leadership capacity for front-line nurse managers.
Implications For Nursing Management: Senior nurse leaders can use the results of this review to guide implementation of evidence-based strategies to recruit and retain front-line nurse managers.

Aims: The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of nurses' stress situation coping levels on somatization symptoms, the mediating effect of depression, and the moderating effect of perceived social support.
Background: As a core part of the global healthcare system, nurses are crucial to patient health and rehabilitation outcomes. However, due to heavy workloads, unreasonable staffing structures, and constant exposure to occupational risks in their workplaces, these factors often place nurses in a high-intensity, high-stress environment, which directly affects their physical and mental health and professional burnout.

Introduction: Individuals experiencing housing instability face significant health inequities. Addressing housing instability requires an understanding of the factors that contribute to these inequities-a responsibility that has been assumed by community-based organizations. Interviewing individuals from 3 Canadian provinces, the present study aimed to examine the perspectives of individuals from front-line services of the social determinants of health (SDoH) needs of individuals experiencing housing instability.

Background: Our single-center, quality improvement project evaluated the impact of a fall reduction plan while using a Just Culture Algorithm that included weekly fall reviews involving front line staff using a non-punitive structure. The project has shown successful results.
Methods: Prior to starting the program, data at this institution indicated falls were higher than the national fall rate of 3-5 per 1000 patient days.
