Since no previous studies have investigated the organisation’s readiness to change in Saudi Arabia, this study will provide empirical evidence regarding these critical components. Purpose: The study aimed to explore how healthcare providers in the Ministry of Health perceive the ministry’s readiness to change. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional correlational design was used for this study. Three public hospitals under the Ministry of Health were involved in recruiting 420 healthcare providers using a convenient quota sampling. A personal data sheet and the organisational readiness for implementing change (ORIC) scale were used for data collection. ANOVA and t-tests were used to analyze the data. Results: The total response rate was 70%. The participants in the study perceived their organisation to be highly ready to change (3.76±0.73). The organisational readiness to change perceived by nurses (3.86+0.98) was significantly greater than that perceived by physicians (3.56+0.90) and allied healthcare providers (3.61+0.92), with a p-value of 0.001. In addition, the organisational readiness to change was significantly related to the participants’ specialty, age, experience, and gender (p<0.05). Conclusion: The findings showed that participants believed that their organisation was highly ready to change. Participants’ specialty, age, experience, and gender were significantly related to organisational readiness to change. This study recommends that leaders need to be proactive in managing changes by assessing the change readiness in their organisation and setting out plans to prepare the organisation. 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z http://localhost:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/10150 Title: Perception of COVID-19 Vaccination Based on Health Belief Model and the Acceptance of COVID-19 Booster Vaccination Authors: Eka Putri Arlyani Kusuma Dewi, Risma; Hafan Sutawardana, Jon; Nistiandani, Ana Abstract: Background: The COVID-19 booster vaccination proposes a spike in cases due to new infection variants. According to the Health Belief Model (HBM), vaccination acceptance is a health change behavior measured by perception. However, more information is needed about the relationship between public perception and future acceptance of the COVID-19 booster vaccination. Purpose: This research aimed to analyze the relationship between the perception of COVID-19 vaccination based on the HBM and the acceptance of COVID-19 booster vaccination. Methods: The research used observational analytics design with a cross-sectional approach conducted at the community of a public health center in Jember Regency, Indonesia. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 387 respondents. The inclusion criteria were people aged >18 who had received a complete primary vaccination. The research instruments consisted of some questionnaires: respondent characteristics, perceptions of COVID-19 vaccination based on the HBM, and the acceptance of COVID-19 booster vaccination. Data were analyzed using Chi-square and a logistic regression test. Results: The results showed that most respondents accepted the COVID-19 booster vaccine (67.4%). There was a significant relationship between perception’s subscales of COVID-19 vaccination, such as perceived susceptibility (p=0.001), perceived severity (p=0.001), perceived benefits (p=0.001), perceived barriers (p=0.001), cues to action (p=0.001) and the acceptance of the COVID-19 booster vaccination. Cues to action were the most dominant factor related to the acceptance of the COVID-19 booster vaccination (OR=5.265; 95%CI=3.073-9.022; p<0.001). Conclusion: Positive perceptions of all HBM subscales, which showed a good perception in the community, indicated the high acceptance of the COVID-19 booster vaccine. For clinical practice, this research can be developed by surveying patients who have comorbidities. 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z http://localhost:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/10149 Title: Self-Management and Relating Factors among Chronic Kidney Disease Patients on Hemodialysis: An Indonesian Study Authors: Mailani, Fitri; Huriani, Emil; Muthia, Rahmi; Rahmiwati, Rahmiwati Abstract: Background: The latest approach to managing chronic kidney disease (CKD) involves the implementation of self-management methods. Nonetheless, numerous previous studies indicate that self-management behaviors remain inadequate among hemodialysis patients in Indonesia. Therefore, a deeper comprehension of the factors that affect a patient’s self-management should be studied. Purpose: This study aimed to examine self-management among CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis and its relating factors. Methods: The study used a cross-sectional approach. A convenience sample of 164 patients undergoing hemodialysis determined using a table of power analysis was recruited from two hemodialysis centers in Padang, Indonesia, from May to July 2022. Hemodialysis self-management instrument-18 (HDSMI-18), the scale of self-efficacy for chronic diseases, and the hemodialysis knowledge questionnaire were used as the instruments. T-tests, ANOVA, Spearman correlation test, and multiple linear regression were used to analyse the data. Results: Self-management, knowledge, and self-efficacy mean scores were 48.62(8.45), 17.77(2.96), and 43.05(10.08), respectively. There was a significant positive correlation between self-management with education (p=0.000), employment status (p=0.025), monthly income (p=0.003), knowledge (p=0.000), and self-efficacy (p=0.004). Multiple linear regression analyses for overall self-management indicated that knowledge and education were the main influencing factors of self-management. Conclusion: Hemodialysis patients had a subpar degree of self-management. Furthermore, knowledge and education were the most significant influencing factors of self-management. Nurses are expected to be able to provide structured education to increase patient knowledge which will later yield good self-management 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z http://localhost:8080/xmlui/handle/123456789/10148 Title: The Prevalence of Nurses’ Emotional Exhaustion during COVID-19 Pandemic: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Authors: Alaseeri, Rana; Ghazi Baker, Omar; Banakhar, Maram Abstract: Background: Nurses in many countries face a high prevalence of psychological pressure while caring for COVID-19 patients. Several determinants of emotional exhaustion leading to occupational burnout risk were documented. However, a recent review examining nurses’ emotional exhaustion during the COVID-19 pandemic is lacking in nursing literature. Purpose: This review aimed to examine the prevalence of nurses’ emotional exhaustion during the COVID-19 pandemic. This review also describes the organizational contributing factors to nurses’ emotional exhaustion. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature following the PRISMA guidelines was conducted in March 2022. Four databases, including PubMed, ProQuest Platform, Wiley, and Google Scholar, were searched from 1 January 2020 to 28 February 2022. The prevalence of nurses’ emotional exhaustion (EE) was pooled using random effect meta‐analyses. The quality appraisal of the studies was done using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) checklist. Data analysis utilized a random effect model to evaluate the pooled effects of the studies due to the high heterogeneity between results. Results: Nine studies were included with a total number of 16,810 subjects surveyed, of whom, 8,150 (48.50%) met the criteria for emotional exhaustion. Based on the standard effect model, the pooled estimate for EE prevalence was 48.9% (95% CI:48.1% to 49.6%). Several organizational factors contributing to nurses’ emotional exhaustion included working in critical care units or isolation wards, longer working hours in COVID-19 quarantine units, night shifts, working with confirmed or suspected co-workers, monthly salary income, and inadequate hospital resources. Conclusion: This review found that nurses were suffering from high to moderate emotional exhaustion levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, several organizational factors influence this emotional exhaustion. These findings highlight the necessity for urgent interventions to decrease psychological impacts on frontline nurses 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z
