- Abstract
- Oncology nurses care for high-acuity patients on a regular basis. High patient-demands combined with exposure to patient mortality can lead to complicated grieving. When nurses are not included in grief resolution strategies, burnout may ensue resulting in negative outcomes for the nurses and their hospitals of employment. Interventions such as bereavement support groups, end-of-life education programs, and promotion of positive work environments have been proven effective in managing the consequences of unresolved burnout. Future work in developing more interventions that support nurses’ physical and mental health are warranted.
