Nurses are the largest workforce in the healthcare sector, and unhealthy work environments are one of the major factors contributing to nursing shortages worldwide. Since, in the health care system, nursing personnel perform different roles and functions with their specific responsibilities depending on their position, the stressors and overall work stress experienced by nurses may differ depending on their job duties and working conditions. Studies conducted in different countries indicate that the causes of nursing stress can vary from constantly changing duties, and interpersonal conflicts with patients or doctors to performing tasks not related to nursing care and dealing with life-threatening emergencies. The main results of a well-known American study showed that nurses working in psychiatric wards have the highest level of stress, followed by oncology nurses, intensive care nurses, and emergency room nurses, respectively. Medical nurses of therapeutic and surgical profiles reported the lowest perception of stress. Similar previous studies have shown mixed results in this regard, but nurses in psychiatric wards have always had very high levels of stress compared to nurses in other wards. The complex nature of patient conditions, complex technologies, ethical dilemmas related to patient care in the event of death and end-of-life issues, changing roles and responsibilities of nurses, and changes in health care delivery systems were identified as major stressors in the ICU. therapy Lack of or lack of support and high expectations from administrators are documented systemic sources of stress for ICU nurses. According to the analyzed studies, in different countries and institutions, nurses of the same profile experience different stress levels and interpret their condition in relation to professional activity in various ways.
