Abstract

Background: Health-care institutions constantly strive to enhance the care environment and promote staff satisfaction. Engaging nurses through shared governance helps achieve these institutional goals. Aim: This Saudi study aimed to assess the current status of professional nursing governance on nurses at King Fahad Medical City, Saudi Arabia. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 247 nurse participants chosen by the convenience sampling technique. Data were collected using the Index of Professional Nursing Governance tool. Results: Staff nurses practiced the first level of shared governance with a mean score of 196.9 ± 49.7, showing they had primary decision-making responsibilities. The dimension with the lowest score was 'goal-setting and conflict resolution' (19.6 ± 6.12). Years of nursing experience was a statistically significant (P = 0.002) factor in governance. Conclusion: Nurse participants practiced shared governance in their given setting. However, their below-par score for “goal-setting and conflict resolution” underscores the need for professional development.

评估专业护理治理护士在沙特阿拉伯王国的多元文化背景下

背景:医疗机构不断努力改善护理环境，提高员工满意度。通过共享治理让护士参与进来有助于实现这些机构目标。目的:本沙特研究旨在评估法赫德国王医疗城护士专业护理治理的现状。方法:采用方便抽样法对247名护士进行横断面调查。使用专业护理管理指数工具收集数据。结果:护理人员实行共享治理一级，平均得分为196.9±49.7分，具有主要决策责任。得分最低的维度是“目标设定与冲突解决”(19.6±6.12)。护理年限是影响治理的因素，具有统计学意义(P = 0.002)。结论:护士参与者在给定的环境中实行共享管理。然而，他们在“目标设定和冲突解决”方面的得分低于平均水平，这凸显了专业发展的必要性。
