an impact on the divisions as well as on the organization as a whole

widening of both behaviors and perspectives as well

situations that might arise in nursing practices, particularly in patient
handling. Staffs who have gained experience in handling the patients,
particularly mentally ill patients as well as those with experience in the
past with specialized skill in providing quality and safe care to people
would be helpful.

nursing environment
