Background: Nurses are the best sources of health-related information and services for individuals,
appropriate preparation of nurses from risk is crucial. However, it is crucial to evaluate the risk
faced by nurses owing to COVID-19 in order to protect their general well being and to provide more
effective care. Aim: This study aims to culturally revise, adapt and evaluate the validity and
reliability of COVID-19 Pandemic Risk Assessment and Management Scale for Nurses. Design: A
descriptive cross-sectional study design was used among nurses. Subjects: There are two types of
subjects: First group includes, a sample of convenience nurses from all categories of nursing
personnel working in governmental universities and quarantine hospitals in Egypt their total (n =
498); second group, includes, a jury committee (n = 35). Tools: Two tools were used to collect the
data, tool (1); COVID-19 Pandemic Risk Assessment and Management Scale (CPRAMS);tool
(2)Health Care Workers Risk Assessment and Management Interim Guidance. Results: The results
revealed that97.54% of jury group agreed about the whole scale for COVID-19 virus risk
assessment and management adapted for nurses (CRAM). In addition the CRAMS for Nurses
revealed a statistically significant and positive correlation with the health care workers risk
assessment and management interim guidance at (r = 0.534 - p = 0.000). Conclusion: The COVID-
19 Pandemic Risk Assessment and Management Scale for Nurses was a valid and reliable tool to
measure risk assessment and management of nurses related to COVID-19 virus. This tool can be
used in clinical studies to measure risk assessment and management of nurses related to coronavirus
(COVID-19). Recommendation: Orientation programs should include orientation about scale for
COVID-19 virus risk assessment and management adapted for nurses to help management of risk in
time of pandemic and improving quality of care.
