Abstract

The association between low nurse staffing levels and adverse patient outcomes is well established. There is also a substantial body of evidence demonstrating that low nurse staffing levels can negatively affect the health and well-being of nurses, in terms of increased stress levels, burnout, job dissatisfaction and intention to leave the role or profession. Given the challenges with nurse retention in the UK, there is a need for strategic workforce planning to address these issues. In this article, the author explores the association between safe staffing levels and nurses' health and well-being, with a focus on burnout, job satisfaction and intention to leave. The author also reviews some of the workforce strategies and initiatives that aim to improve nurses' well-being through addressing low staffing levels and issues related to the workplace environment.

探讨安全人员配备水平与护士健康和福祉之间的关系。
低护士人员配备水平与不良患者预后之间的关系已得到充分证实。也有大量证据表明,护士人员配备水平低会对护士的健康和福祉产生负面影响,包括压力水平增加、倦怠、工作不满和离开角色或职业的意愿。鉴于英国护士保留的挑战,有必要制定战略性的劳动力计划来解决这些问题。在这篇文章中,作者探讨了安全人员配备水平与护士健康和福祉之间的关系,重点是倦怠、工作满意度和离职意愿。作者还回顾了一些劳动力战略和举措,旨在通过解决低人员配备水平和与工作场所环境相关的问题来改善护士的福祉。
