improve the quality of care provided and enhance the professional competency of knowledge management and career
success among nurses. Aim: The study aimed to explore inter-professional collaboration and knowledge
management as an indicator of career success among nurses. Research Design: The study used a descriptive
correlational design. Setting: The study was carried out in critical care units (13unit) at Benha University Hospital.
Sample: All available of nurses 418 out of 421. Tools of data collection: Three main tools namely; I): Inter
professional collaboration questionnaire II): Knowledge management scale and III): Subjective Career Success
Scale (SCSS) Results: Showed that more than three fifth (64.6%) of studied nurses had high level of perception
toward inter-professional collaboration and more than half (52.9%) of them reported moderate level of knowledge
management. While, more than three fifth (63.9%) of nurses reported moderate level of career success. Conclusion:
There was a highly positive statistically significant correlation among total inter-professional collaboration, total
knowledge management and total career success among nurses. Recommendations: Providing training programs
and workshops for nurses about inter-professional collaboration to improve quality of patient care. Hospital
administration should support knowledge management practices through investment in its infrastructure and
technologies.
