In order to maintain a transparent and scientific-based randomization process, simple
randomization will be used in assigning participants (nurses) to intervention
(education program) and control groups, assuming that each
participant has an equal chance of being assigned to any group. The simple randomization
procedure would involve choosing a letter from a sealed envelope that contains two letters; A
and B (A would be in the intervention group and B would be in the control group). Indeed, two
groups will be allocated randomly, Blinding description: simple randomization
