Abstract
Understanding the Current Role of the Nurse Managers in A Saudi Context, Challenges and Enablers Experienced in this Role, A study protocol
Amira Assiry
The nurse managers' role is pivotal in healthcare organisations as they directly influence staff nurses and, therefore, patient safety outcomes. Hence, NMs have significant responsibilities and high expectations from patients, staff nurses, leaders, and organisations. However, these responsibilities remain unclear in the Saudi context. Therefore, it is crucial to identify the current NMs role and activities in Saudi Arabia and understand the challenges and enablers experienced in this role.
