Emergency nurses prefer employee-led self-care for well-being during pandemics. Employer-led strategies lacked consensus, with a preference for in-person support, highlighting the need to tailor interventions based on nurse preferences.
Area of Science:
- Nursing
- Emergency Medicine
- Public Health
- Pandemic Response
Background:
- Emergency nurses faced high stress during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Limited evidence existed on effective support strategies for these nurses.
- Expert consensus was needed to identify optimal support methods.
Purpose of the Study:
- To achieve expert consensus from emergency nurses on effective and accessible support strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Main Methods:
- A 2-round Delphi study was conducted with emergency nurses.
- An online expert panel was recruited from urban and rural emergency departments.
- Nurses rated and ranked employee-led and employer-led support strategies.
Main Results:
- Emergency nurses preferred employee-led self-care, focusing on social and emotional well-being.
- No employer-led strategies achieved consensus on effectiveness or accessibility.
- In-person support was favored over other delivery methods.
Conclusions:
- Emergency nurses desire support focused on self-care and social/emotional well-being.
- Employer-led strategies require refinement to meet nurse needs and preferences.
- Understanding nurse perceptions is crucial for employers to tailor effective support.
