This paper evaluates an innovative student-led nursing leadership symposium at a Southern California university, specifically designed to bridge educational and practical leadership gaps in nursing with a focus on students from underrepresented groups. Integrating Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) competencies, the symposium encouraged active participation, self-reflection, and teamwork. It featured interactive panel discussions with nurse leaders and collaborative learning opportunities aimed at developing leadership knowledge, skills, and action. Participant feedback underscored significant personal and professional growth, particularly in communication, delegation, and collaboration skills. This initiative contributes significantly to the discourse on diversifying nursing leadership and provides a replicable model for leadership development in nursing education programs, emphasizing the symposium's pivotal role in enhancing inclusivity and equipping future nurse leaders from diverse backgrounds.

Background
The National Academies, National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention (NAASP), and National Strategy for Suicide Prevention disseminated recommendations for improving the quality, scope, usefulness, timeliness, and accessibility of mortality data and are working to advance research in this area. Further, the NAASP issued recommendations for developing standard definitions, use of common data elements, and processes for connecting data elements with similar measures. The NAASP additionally reinforced the importance of linking data sources.
Purpose
Examine surveillance of nurse suicide in the United States.
Methods
The literature was searched to identify studies that examined suicide among nurses using national data.
Discussion
Across studies that examined nurse suicide using national data, there was variability in methods, nursing definitions and age criteria, and limited data on sex differences, race and ethnicity, and state details. There was also variability with respect to denominators used in suicide rate calculations. Cross-study comparison and synthesis is sometimes challenging given this variability.
Conclusion
To examine additional associations between risk/protective factors and nurse suicide, to monitor nurse suicide incidence and trends, and to evaluate the efficacy of interventions aimed at reducing nurse suicide, it is important to move toward a standard evaluative approach that considers both mortality data and research initiatives. Standardization and data linking recommendations from the NAASP are particularly relevant to studies that examine nurse suicide. Taken together, leadership and advocacy are needed in these areas, both within the nursing profession and more broadly across the United States.

This paper focuses on the implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for the nursing workforce, examining both the opportunities presented by AI in relieving nurses of routine tasks and enabling better patient care, and the potential challenges it poses. The discussion highlights the freeing of nurses' time from administrative duties, allowing for more patient interaction and professional development, while also acknowledging concerns about job displacement. Ethically integrating AI into patient care and the need for nurses' proactive engagement with AI—including involvement in its development and integration in nursing education—are emphasized. Finally, the paper asserts the necessity for nurses to become active participants in AI's evolution within health care to ensure the enhancement of patient care and the advancement of nursing roles.

The global shortage of nurses has increased the migration of internationally educated nurses (IENs) to the Nordic region, necessitating policies for their migration and workplace integration.
Purpose
This study aimed to identify expert opinions on migration and integration policies for IENs to inform future policy development.
Methods
A two-round policy Delphi study was conducted. The first round used qualitative content analysis to identify policy statements, and the second round used a quantitative descriptive approach to validate them.
Findings
Response rates exceeded 75% in both rounds. Experts identified 36 statements across six themes. High consensus policies included employer contract compliance (96.9%), credential approval (96.9%), language proficiency initiatives (96.9%), diversity, equality, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) training (87.5%), and bilateral agreements (87.5%).
Conclusion
The study emphasizes the importance of credential recognition for IENs before migration and their ongoing professional development, highlighting the need for DEIB training for leaders.

Background
It is not currently known how often nursing theory is cited in non-nursing publications. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to document citations of five nursing theories in non-nursing publications, including author discipline, type of publication, and publication discipline.
Methods
Over 75 non-nursing disciplines cited nursing theories and were consolidated for reporting purposes.
Discussion
Leininger, Pender, Parse, and Orem were most often cited in research articles, and Watson was cited more frequently in books.
Conclusion
Nurse scholars can use these findings to improve interprofessional education and practice and further develop and disseminate nursing knowledge.
