Area of Science:

  • Environmental Psychology
  • Occupational Health
  • Nursing Studies

Background:

  • Healthcare professionals, particularly nurses, face significant occupational stressors leading to fatigue, psychological burden, and insomnia.
  • Interactions with nature and green spaces are increasingly recognized for their potential to mitigate these negative health outcomes.
  • Limited empirical evidence currently exists on the specific impact of nature exposure for nurses.

Discussion:

  • Green space interventions can foster healthier work environments and improve overall outcomes for nursing staff.
  • The World Health Organization emphasizes the importance of nature engagement for public health, advocating for its integration into healthcare settings.
  • Healthcare organizations should proactively implement strategies to increase nurses' access to natural environments.

Key Insights:

  • Nature interaction is a vital, yet under-researched, factor in supporting nurse well-being.
  • Green space exposure can directly combat stress-related issues like fatigue and insomnia in nurses.
  • Healthcare systems have a responsibility to facilitate nature-based solutions for staff health.

Outlook:

  • Further research is needed to quantify the benefits of nature exposure for nurses and develop evidence-based guidelines.
  • Integrating biophilic design and accessible green spaces within healthcare facilities should be a priority.
  • Policy changes supporting nature-based health interventions could enhance the resilience and retention of the nursing workforce.
