Sintesi	The Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) is a 27-item, CMS-mandated patient experience survey administered to a random sample of hospital inpatients after discharge. Launched in 2006 by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, HCAHPS measures patient perceptions of hospital care across 10 key composites: communication with nurses, communication with physicians, responsiveness to patient needs, pain management, communication about medications, discharge information, cleanliness and quietness of the hospital environment, and overall rating of the hospital. HCAHPS is publicly reported on the CMS Hospital Compare website, incorporated into hospital payment incentive programs, and is one of the most widely recognized measures of hospital quality from the patient perspective.	The Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index (PES-NWI) is a 31-item instrument designed to measure nurses' perceptions of their practice environment, particularly factors related to autonomy, control over practice, and organizational support. Developed by Lake in 2002 and based on foundational work by Kramer and Hafner, the PES-NWI assesses five key domains: nursing foundations for quality care, staffing and resource adequacy, collegial nurse–physician relationships, nurse manager ability and support, and organizational support for nursing. It is widely used in hospital quality and nursing research to identify environmental factors associated with nurse satisfaction, retention, and patient safety outcomes.
