Background:A healthy work environment can positively impact nurse- and patient-sensitive outcomes. However, there are as of yet no analysis of the interventions that demonstrate effectiveness in improving NWEs. Aim:The purpose of the study is to perform an integrative review of studies conducted to test interventions that can improve NWEs among hospital settings in Jordan. Methods:Five electronic databases (CINAHL, Medline, ProQuest, PubMed and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews) were searched. Inclusion-exclusion criteria were applied to screen the identified studies. A total of 975 studies were critically appraised for eligibility to be included in data extraction and synthesis. Results: No study was found that tested an intervention to improve NWE. Only two studies were found that examined NWEs in Jordan but both were only descriptive correlational studies. Conclusion: There is a scarcity of evidence on the effectiveness of interventions that can improve NWEs. Future research should be performed to test such interventions.
