“…In addition, according to Gros, job satisfaction increases with age and seniority [ 56 ]. Different results in their research were presented by Schmalenberg et al because, in their research, nurses with less than 5 years of work experience had higher job satisfaction than those working longer [ 57 ].…”

“…In addition, the risk of errors increases significantly when working longer than 12 h, regardless of whether it is voluntary or planned. There is a high risk involved in making critical decisions when you are tired [ 57 ]. Research by Jankowska-Polańska et al showed no correlation between education, age, the number of jobs, job satisfaction and care rationing.…”

The problem of rationing nursing care is common and present all over the world, which is a direct threat to the health and life of patients. The aim of the study was to assess the level of rationing care, fatigue, job satisfaction and occupational burnout and to assess the relationship between them and age, length of service and the number of jobs. A survey was performed among 130 Polish nurses in urology departments using the following questionnaires: Link Burnout Questionnaire, Job Satisfaction Scale, Nursing Care Rationing Scale and Modified Fatigue Impact Scale. Nursing care is rarely rationed—1.11 points; the experience of fatigue ranges between sometimes and often—52.58 points; and job satisfaction is at an average level—17.23 points. The level of rationing nursing care in urology departments is similar to that in other departments. This requires minor changes to the work of nurses to reduce the workload. Employers should develop implementation programs for young workers in order to avoid burnout and also invest in factors increasing nurses’ satisfaction, such as the atmosphere at work.

“…In a study of nurses in Texas, 38% of the respondents reported that they committed a fatigue-related error that could have impacted patient safety. Nurses should not work while fatigued, because it can damage their ability to provide safe, competent, empathetic, and conscientious care to the patients [ 23 ]. As reported in the literature, fatigue can be exacerbated by increased numbers of shifts worked without a day off.…”

The nursing practice refers to a wide range of tasks and responsibilities. In a situation where there is a problem of limited resources, nurses are forced to ration the patient’s care—that is, minimize and skip some tasks. The main purpose of this work was to assess the rationing level of nursing care among staff in the intensive care units. Methods: The research included 150 anaesthesiological nurses in the Silesian Region in Poland. The research was conducted from July to October 2019 using the standardized Perceived Implicit Rationing of Nursing Care (PRINCA) questionnaire on rationing nursing care, assessing the quality of patient care, and job satisfaction. The Modified Fatigue Impact Scale (MFIS) standardized questionnaire was used to assess the level of fatigue of respondents in the physical, cognitive, and psychosocial spheres. Results: Sociodemographic factors, such as gender, age, place of residence, education, seniority, and type of employment were not found to affect the rationing level of nursing care in the intensive care unit. The average quality of patient care was 6.05/10 points, while the average job satisfaction rating was 7.13/10 points. Analysis of the MFIS questionnaire showed that respondents experienced fatigue between “rare” and “sometimes”, and nursing staff fatigue was the main factor for rationing care. Conclusions: The higher the level of fatigue, the greater the rationing of care and the less satisfaction from work.

The purpose of this study was to learn about the incidence of care rationing by nursing staff and to analyze the activities that are most often getting limited in patient care. Material and methods.A total of 217 nursing staff participated in the survey. The inclusion criteria consisted of working in an intensive care unit and consenting to participate in the study.A self-administered questionnaire and standardized questionnaires were used in the analysis: BERNCA, GSES, and IZZ. Statistical validity was verified at a=0.05.Results. Lack of staff was the most common reason for care rationing (47.92%). Women ration nursing care more than men (68.66%). Informing the patient about planned tests or treatment was the activity rationed most frequently (6.47%). As healthy behaviors become more frequent,
