Abstract

Nurses working in emergency units are frequently exposed to high levels of stress due to the demanding nature of their roles. This study investigates the effectiveness of a stress management training program designed to alleviate stress, improve job satisfaction, and reduce burnout among emergency unit nurses. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative and qualitative data. Participants included registered nurses from a single healthcare facility. The training program, delivered over six weeks, incorporated cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and relaxation exercises. Stress levels, job satisfaction, and burnout were measured using the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), the Job Satisfaction Survey (JSS), and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Qualitative insights were gathered through semi-structured interviews. The training program led to a significant reduction in perceived stress and anxiety, with average decreases of 25% in PSS scores and notable improvements in STAI scores. Job satisfaction increased by 18%, and burnout levels decreased, with reductions of 20% in emotional exhaustion and 15% in depersonalization. The program also contributed to a 10% reduction in absenteeism and a 12% decrease in turnover intentions. Qualitative feedback highlighted enhanced coping strategies, improved emotional resilience, and better team dynamics.
