Opis: Aim The aim of this study was to explore the disaster-related nursing competencies among Slovenian nurses, focusing on core competencies, barriers to competency development and roles in disaster management. It also examined the predictors of these competencies, including participation in training, emergency drills, qualifications and leadership roles. Background Global conflicts and climate crises have increased the frequency and intensity of disasters and pose challenges to healthcare systems worldwide. Nurses play a critical role in disaster preparedness, response and recovery, yet their competencies are under-researched. Methods A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 379 registered nurses using the Slovenian version of the Disaster Nursing Core Competencies Scale (Sl-DNCC). The analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, non-parametric tests and logistic regression to identify predictors of disaster nursing competencies. Results Nurses considered disaster-related core competencies to be moderately to very important. Statistically significant predictors of competencies included participation in training, frequency of emergency drills, possession of formal qualifications, and leadership roles. Barriers to developing competencies, such as limited resources and organisational support, were most prevalent among nurses with less experience. Engagement in disaster management was low, except for nurses with leadership positions or frequent participation in drills. Discussion These findings emphasise the importance of leadership roles, practical training and institutional support in enhancing nurses' disaster competencies. Removing barriers, such as limited training opportunities and resources, is critical to strengthening preparedness. Conclusion This study emphasises the need for targeted interventions, including a national competency framework and regular training on disaster management, to improve nursing preparedness in Slovenia. Implications for nursing and health policy Policymakers and healthcare organisations should prioritise investment in training infrastructure, interdisciplinary simulation and leadership development.

Opis: Introduction: Student mobility programmes have become a valuable instrument in student education as they enable the acquisition of essential knowledge, skills and attitudes, and equip the individual more effectively to work in the globalised world. The aim of the study was to examine the impact of international exchange programmes on the personal and professional development of undergraduate nursing students. Methods: A quantitative secondary analysis was conducted. The primary data were collected in 2016 as part of the study entitled International Nursing Student Exchange % Comparison Between Slovene and Foreign Students. The sample in the secondary analysis consisted of 73 nursing students from Slovenia and other European countries. The questionnaire included 20 statements which were rated on a 5-point Likert scale (1-strongly disagree to 5-strongly agree). The data were described on the basis of calculated mean values and the Mann-Whitney U test. Results: On the personal level, students stressed that mobility can improve their self-confidence (Z = -2.088, p = 0.037) and acceptance of other cultures (Z = -3.116, p = 0.002). On the professional level, they highlighted the need to upgrade students' professional competencies (Z = -3.116, p = 0.002), particularly in the field of culturally competent nursing care (Z = -2.391, p = 0.017). Discussion and conclusion: The benefits reported by nursing students seem to show that it is sensible to continue to support and promote international student mobility programmes.
