Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 12An Evaluation of a Web-Based Crisis Management Training Program for Nurse Managers: the Case of the Covid-19 Crisis(Cambridge University Press, 2023) Alan, H.; Harmanci Seren, A.K.; Eskin Bacaksiz, F.; Güngör, S.; Bilgin, O.; Baykal, Ü.; Bacaksiz, Feride Eskin; Seren, Arzu Kader HarmanciObjective: The effective management of nursing services, the main power in patients’ care and treatment in the front line of the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, and nurse managers’ effective leadership behaviors in the fight against the pandemic have been important key factors. It is thus critical to support nurse managers, strengthen them through training, and increase their competency so that they can successfully manage crises, disasters, or pandemics. This study aims to assess the effect of a web-based training program on the knowledge levels of nurse managers who worked during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This is a randomized controlled experimental study. The study population consisted of the members of the Nurse Managers Association. The intervention group had 30 participants, and the control group had 31 participants in the final. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups’ mean number of correct pre-test responses (P = 0.843). However, the intervention group’s mean number of correct post-test responses was statistically significantly higher than the control group’s after the web-based training program (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Web-based training programs can effectively increase nurse managers’ knowledge levels. Therefore, web-based training programs should be developed in ordinary times for the management of crisis situations. © The Author(s), 2023.

Methods: This was a descriptive, cross-sectional study. The sample consisted of living liver donors followed by 2 liver transplantation centers in 2 private hospitals in 2 different provinces, between August 2017 and October 2019. All the living liver donors were contacted without a time frame after donation and all the participants were evaluated once. The Beck Depression Scale, SF-36, General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Perceived Available Support Scale were used to collect data. The t-test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney U-test, and Pearson correlation analysis were used for data analysis. Results: The mean age of the patients was 34.31 +/- 8.22 years. There was a positive, weak correlation between age and physical function. Gender, marital status, financial status, and education levels significantly affected physical components, social function, vitality, depression, and self-efficacy scores. High depression levels negatively affected the physical component, self-efficacy, and social support scores of the living liver donors. High self-efficacy positively affected social support. Conclusion: The study revealed that gender, marital status, employment status, and education levels were associated with psychosocial outcomes. The financial status was the main factor affecting each psychosocial variable. Financial status needs to be assessed in detail before and after the operation.
