Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Healthcare Management
  • Emergency Medicine

Background:

  • Caring is a universal nursing concept.
  • Higher patient acuity and staff shortages in emergency departments (EDs) may jeopardize caring behaviors.
  • Understanding nurses' perspectives on caring is crucial for improving ED staffing and retention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the meaning of caring from the perspective of emergency nurses.
  • To identify factors affecting caring in the ED practice environment.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative descriptive study.
  • Semi-structured interviews with 17 emergency nurses in Manitoba, Canada.
  • Thematic analysis of interview data.

Main Results:

  • Advocacy and holistic care emerged as core themes of caring.
  • Workload, time constraints, staffing, shift work, and lack of self-care impacted caring.
  • Lack of management support was consistently identified as the primary barrier to caring.

Conclusions:

  • Caring remains a unifying concept in nursing but is undermined by environmental factors in EDs.
  • Fostering a supportive work environment is essential for holistic nursing care, job satisfaction, and nurse retention.
  • Caring is fundamental to nursing practice, not secondary.
