Results: The vast majority (92.6%) of nurse managers had a high knowledge level
immediately post-program implementation, which slightly declined post-three
months of the program, while the majority (90.7%) of them had a satisfactory level
of all human resource management practices immediately and after three months of
program implementation. while the majority (87.3%) of nurses had a high
