Pediatric and neonatal nurses (number = 208) will be conducted at King Abdullah Hospital, Rahmah Hospital, Al-Basher Hospital, and Jordan University Hospital after getting the Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval from Jordan University of Science and Technology, in addition to the IRB from the Ministry of Health. The nurses will be allocated into two groups, one as an interventional group and one as a control group, and the participants will be asked to complete the pretest questionnaire (baseline pre-intervention) and then the post-test at the end of the intervention (8 weeks after baseline). Data will be collected using online questionnaires of the study variables and a demographic questionnaire for the participants. Data will be analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (version 26).
