SHIFT-BASED EMOTIONAL STRESS REACTIONS IN EMERGENCY NURSES AFTER TRAUMATIZING EVENTS

摘要

Introduction: Emergency nurses experience multiple traumatizing events during clinical work. Early identification of work-related tension could lead to a timely intervention supporting well-being. We sought to discover whether there is an immediately measurable effect on emotional stress, as determined by changes between pre- and postshift survey scores, associated with exposure to traumatizing events during a single emergency nursing shift.
