Abstract | ||||
Background: Nurse managers’ sustainable management behaviors assist nurses in realizing their own capacity to shape their consciousness of sustainable development and have an impact on the global concerns posed by climate change for the expansion and improvement of any healthcare organization. Aim of the study: To assess the role of nurse managers’ sustainable management behaviors in building sustainability consciousness among nurses. Research design: A descriptive-correlational research design was applied. Subjects: This study involved all nurse managers (n= 41) and a stratified proportional randomized sampling of nurses (n=286) who were working at Tanta University International Teaching Hospital in all departments and intensive care units. Tools: Two tools for data collection were used: the Sustainable Management Behaviors Scale (SMBS) and the Sustainability Consciousness Questionnaire (SCQ). Results: Slightly more than sixty percent (65.9%) of nurse managers had a high-level of sustainable management behaviors, and around half (52.1%) of nurses had a high level of sustainability consciousness. Conclusion: The current study showed a significant positive statistical correlation between nurse managers’ overall sustainable management behaviors and nurses’ sustainability consciousness. Recommendations: Establish educational programs about sustainable management behaviors to provide nurse managers with needed knowledge and skills, develop green leadership, increase sustainable performance, and create a sustainable nursing workforce. | ||||
