Exploration of Nurses' Experiences Related to Moral Injury: A Reflexive Thematic Analysis of Nurse Interviews
Aim
To provide a description of nurses' experiences related to moral injury, including Potentially Morally Injurious Events and factors related to the impact of those events.
Design
Reflexive thematic analysis of nurse interviews.
Method
Nurses were recruited from an ongoing study within a large academic medical centre. Nurses who enrolled in the present study participated in semi-structured individual interviews using an interview guide based on Litz's conceptualisation of moral injury. Themes were identified in the recorded and transcribed interviews.
Results
Interviews were conducted with 12 nurses in May and June 2023 and coded for themes within three broad categories: (a) Nursing Values, (b) Experiences of Potentially Morally Injurious Events and (c) Stressors and Supports. Within these categories, we pinpointed 8 themes and 3 subthemes, which highlight the nurses experience of potentially morally injurious events related to challenging care, strained relationships with physicians, and treatment inequity, which conflict with their nursing values. We identified team and organisational factors, including senior leadership behaviours, team dynamics and access to resources that appear to intensify or lessen the impact of these events.
Conclusion
Potentially Morally Injurious Events contribute to the occupational stress experienced by nurses, particularly when systemic organisational factors and demands prevent them from providing the value-driven and ethically necessary healthcare. Limiting Potentially Morally Injurious Events and providing supportive environments following stressors requires organisational-level changes within healthcare environments to prevent and alleviate nurses' occupational stress.
Impact
This research highlights the need for healthcare organisations to implement systemic interventions aimed both at reducing Potentially Morally Injurious Events and creating system and team-level supports to lessen the impact of unavoidable events. These results pinpoint specific areas for prevention, intervention and support.
