Abstract
Fourth Survey and Report on Nurse Wellness Released
As part of its Pulse on the Nation's Nurses Survey Series, the American Nurses Foundation and American Nurses Association has released its fourth mental health and wellness survey and report, the goal of which is to obtain data to inform decisions about how to support nurses. The survey, which included more than 7,000 nurses, identified that 56% of nurses experienced symptoms of burnout that they attributed to staffing issues, increasing numbers of patients, poor leadership, and the time needed to complete administrative duties. Although burnout was high, only one-third of respondents reported that they were currently receiving mental health support; reported barriers included a lack of time, feeling that they should be able to handle their own mental health, and cost. Overall, 65% of nurses reported feeling “a great deal of stress” related to their jobs. Reports of stress and anxiety slightly improved from previous years’ surveys; however, reports of positive emotions (eg, feeling grateful or empowered) decreased. The report outlines actions to take to address mental health and wellness, such as addressing structural aspects of the job that affect workload (eg, using technology, delegating tasks), providing flexible work options (eg, start time, shift length), improving access to evidence-based mental health resources (eg, behavioral health concierge, peer-to-peer support), and strengthening skills and abilities (eg, training on conflict resolution).
