Material Detail

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships among palliative care, occupational nursing stress and psychological indices. Two groups  of nurses were part of this investigation: those providing palliative care (N = 94) and those not providing palliative care (N = 86). Data on sociodemographic characteristics, personality types, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, sleepiness, resilience and occupational nursing stress were also collected. Multiple linear regression models were used to determine the associations among palliative care, occupational nursing stress, resilience, sleepiness, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and personality traits. The findings indicate that providing palliative nursing care was associated with higher levels of occupational stress. Stress may trigger adverse health consequences such as the development of anxiety, depression and other chronic non-communicable diseases. Support programs are indispensable for strengthening nurses' skills and reducing occupational stress to maintain their health and ensure high-quality patient care.
