Background:

  • Military nurses encounter numerous stressors and moral dilemmas during deployments.

  • This study focuses on the reintegration experiences of military nurses into personal and professional roles.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the post-deployment experiences of military nurses.
  • To explore the meaning military nurses derive from their deployment experiences.
  • To inform support systems for military nurses during the post-deployment phase.

Main Methods:

  • A qualitative narrative inquiry approach was employed.
  • Thematic analysis was used to analyze data from in-depth, semi-structured interviews.
  • Data were collected from ten military nurses in 2012.

Main Results:
