ABSTRACT
Nurses transitioning to care and novice-level nurses experience difficulty managing interruptions in the acute care setting, which can result in loss of attention and potential errors. Understanding better the characteristics surrounding interruptions will better guide staff development educators in designing management strategies as well as improving clinical reasoning that supports a culture of safety among staff and professional partners.

It is time to examine nurses week investments. With expenses increasingly scrutinized, healthcare leaders require data-driven decisions. Managing by instinct and intuition is both inadequate and reckless. This survey of 727 registered nurses identifies celebratory options for nurses week that nurses find meaningful. Knowing what registered nurses value will guide approaches to an effective nurses week activity planning.
