Note: Rows are ordered by evidence of strengthened Nurse Practitioner support
In bold is probability of 0.95 or higher, which is considered strong statistical evidence for strengthened support
In italics is probability of 0.05 or lower which is considered statistical evidence of more moral distress in those attending the huddles
