The #1 stressful thing about being a nurse, Scrubsmag.com

So, we all know there are a million things that ‘stress’ us out during our shifts. Do I really need to list them? Here are just a few that come to mind:

Causes of Stress

  • Inadequate staffing
  • Nurse-to-staff ratio overload (does the word unsafe come to mind)
  • Lack of teamwork
  • Lack of effective and fair management
  • Coworker strain
  • Paperwork
  • Endless charting – repeating information on multiple forms
  • Miscommunication or the lack of communication
  • Census overload and strain (revolving door of admissions and discharges)
  • No time to even use the bathroom
