Nursing Wellness in Academic and Clinical Cardiovascular and Stroke Nursing
Published: December 18, 2024
- Nursing is an essential part of our health care system workforce. Cardiovascular (CV) and stroke nursing represent one of the largest specialty areas requiring expert knowledge and clinical proficiency to ensure safety and quality patient outcomes.
- The concept of “nursing wellness” is not new but has come to the forefront over the past 5 years due to nurses experiencing unprecedented demands during the COVID pandemic, leading to professional burnout.
- Strategies to mitigate burnout include improving the work environment and professional growth and development for nurse clinicians, enhancing teaching resources, career support, and compensation for nurse educators, and increasing research support, mentorship, and compensation for nurse scientists.
