This prospective, monocentric observational study aims to evaluate the implementation of a Job Rotation (JR) program in the Department of Cardiovascular Sciences at Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli IRCCS. The primary objective is to assess the impact of JR on the development of professional and clinical nursing competencies, as well as on organizational health and burnout levels. The study involves two groups of nurses: one participating in a structured JR program with bimonthly rotations across intensive, medical, surgical, and rehabilitation units; and a control group continuing routine activities. Outcomes will be measured using validated tools, including the Italian Nurse Competence Scale - Short Form (I-NPCS-SF), the Italian Nurse Competence Scale (INCS), the Maslach Burnout Inventory - HSS, and the QISO questionnaire. The research investigates whether JR improves competency, reduces burnout, and enhances perceived organizational health.
