Support for nurses in coping with work load and stress. Qualified personnel management prevents understaffing in the nursing sector

摘要

abstract_textpWork load and work stress are reasons for a reduction in the quality of nursing care and for nurses leaving hospitals. In parallel, there is an increase in the need for nursing because of demographic developments such as the increase in the number of chronically ill patients. Today, hospitals are understaffed in the nursing sector. This personnel problem is a challenge for the management of human resources in hospitals.

Qualified management of human resources will improve general work conditions, patient' outcomes and staff satisfaction./p/abstract_text
