“As healthcare has become more critical and complex, so have nurses’ responsibilities,
expectations, and scopes of practice. Acute care nurses working at the bedside are subject to an immense amount of stress, anxiety, and burnout due to their work environment.
Although respect for the duties and profession of nursing has increased, the demands posed by various physical, mental, emotional, ethical, and moral challenges have also intensified. These challenges affect healthcare workers on both superficial and
systemic levels.”
