Mean score based on converted Likert scale
^aItem: To what extent do you feel ready to navigate in your own ward/clinic?
^bItem: To what extent do you feel ready to participate in emergency calls at another ward/clinic?
^cItem: To what extent do you feel ready handling emergency situations (e.g., a cardiac arrest)?
^dDifference in mean score from pre-measurement to post-measurement
^eDifference in mean score from pre-measurement to follow-up measurement
*Indicates a statistically significant difference over time (p < 0.005) (based on paired sample)
^#Indicates a statistically significant difference (Wilcoxon signed-rank test) in medians between dependent groups (p < 0.005)
