Nurses in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) represent a multicultural workforce who are educated in different countries from around the world. The purpose was to assess professional competence among a multicultural workforce of registered nurses in KSA in relation to individual and work-related factors. The Nurse Professional Competence Scale was used in a cross-sectional design. Registered nurses ( = 541) reported highest scores for "nursing care," and "value-based nursing care," and lowest scores for "care pedagogics," and "development, leadership, and organization of nursing care." All CAs achieved 0.80 or more Cronbach's alpha. Known-group validity was verified by comparing nurse managers and staff nurses competence in organization, administration, and leadership of nursing care ( = .000). There is room for competence development in care pedagogics, and development, leadership, and organization of nursing care. Assessing registered nurses competence is of importance for planning and implementing cultural congruent nursing care.
沙特阿拉伯王国（KSA）的护士是一支多元文化的劳动力队伍，他们在世界各地不同的国家接受教育。本研究旨在评估 KSA 注册护士多元文化劳动力的专业能力与个体和工作相关因素的关系。采用横断面设计，使用护士专业能力量表。注册护士（=541）报告了“护理照顾”和“基于价值观的护理照顾”方面的最高得分，而“护理教学法”和“护理照顾的发展、领导和组织”方面的得分最低。所有 CA 的 Cronbach's alpha 均达到 0.80 或以上。通过比较护士长和一线护士在护理照顾的组织、管理和领导方面的能力，验证了已知组别的有效性（=0.000）。在护理教学法以及护理照顾的发展、领导和组织方面，仍有提高能力的空间。评估注册护士的能力对于规划和实施文化相适应的护理照顾至关重要。
