“…Our study revealed that nurses were exposed to violence both before and during the pandemic and that the most common type of violence was verbalemotional-psychological violence. Studies conducted in Turkey reported that 68% of the nurses were subjected to verbal violence and 33.6% to threat/psychological violence (Bahar et al, 2015), 60.8% of the nurses working in emergency departments, intensive care units, and psychiatry clinics were subjected to verbal or physical violence (Ünsal Atan et al, 2013), and 78.3% of the nurses experienced verbal violence (Çuvadar & Ekuklu, 2020). Our study is similar to the literature regarding the type of violence that nurses are frequently exposed to.…”

“…In our study, nurses reported that they were exposed to physical and verbal-emotional-psychological violence most often by patients' relatives and to sexual violence most frequently by patients before and during the pandemic. According to studies conducted in Turkey, 60.2% of the nurses were subjected to violence by patient relatives, and 33.6% by patients (Bahar et al, 2015), and 44.3% of the violence was found to come from patient relatives (Çuvadar & Ekuklu, 2020). Our study results are similar to those of the literature.…”

“…It was reported that working more than 40 h a week and working more than three nightshifts a week increased the intention to leave the nursing profession (Said & El-Shafei, 2021). Some studies in the literature revealed that violence towards healthcare professionals reduced job satisfaction and productivity, reduced the quality of care, and decreased professional commitment (Bahar et al, 2015;Hıdıroğlu et al, 2019;Najafi et al, 2018). There is a strong relationship between professional commitment and the idea of quitting the profession (Cowin et al, 2008).…”

Aims and Objectives: This study aimed to determine the relationship between nurses' exposure to violence and their professional commitment during the COVID-19 pandemic.Background: Violence against nurses is a common problem that persists worldwide. Design:This was a descriptive cross-sectional study.Methods: An online questionnaire form and the Nursing Professional Commitment Scale were used to collect the data. The study was carried out online during the COVID-19 pandemic between October-December 2020. A total of 263 nurses agreed to participate in the study. The STROBE checklist was followed for observational studies.Results: During the COVID-19 pandemic, 8.4% of the nurses stated that they were exposed to physical violence, 57.8% to verbal violence, 0.8% to sexual violence and 61.6% to mobbing. 52.1% of the nurses stated that they thought of quitting the profession during the COVID-19 pandemic. The mean total Nursing Professional Commitment Scale score was 71.33 ± 15.05. Conclusions:This study revealed that nurses' exposure to physical, verbal and sexual violence during the COVID-19 pandemic decreased compared to before the pandemic. Nurses' exposure to mobbing during the pandemic was found to increase. A statistically significant difference was found between the status of the nurses' exposure to physical violence, verbal violence, and mobbing, working hours, number of patients given care, and their thoughts of quitting the profession. It was found that the status of exposure to physical violence, thinking of quitting the profession and working hours decreased professional commitment. Relevance to clinical practice:In the light of these results, it is recommended that measures to prevent violence should be addressed in a multifaceted way. In managing the pandemic process, the decisions and practices should not be left to the managers' initiative to prevent mobbing. Initiatives that will increase nurses' professional commitment during the pandemic process should be planned and implemented.

Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of mindfulness stress training given to nurses working during the COVID-19 pandemic period on the quality of work-life and motivation of nurses. Materials and Methods: The research was carried out as a pre-test and post-test control group quasi-experimental model from nurses working in a university hospital in eastern Turkey between September 2021 and December 2021. The study population consisted of 850 nurses working in the hospital. The sample consisted of 42 nurses (21 experimental, 21 control group) who agreed to participate in the study and met the inclusion criteria. In the study, selection bias was controlled by randomized assignment and concealing randomization. The nurses’ names were grouped alphabetically and randomized using the research randomizer program. Within the scope of the research, the mindfulness Stress Training Program was applied to the nurses in the experimental group. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Nurse Work-Life Quality Scale, and Nurse Work Motivation Scale. Chi-square test, Mann–Whitney U test, and Wilcoxon marking tests were used to analyze the data. Results: It was determined that the total score of the work motivation scale of the nurses in the experimental group was 48.42 ± 5.39 before the training, 59.52 ± 6.52 after the training, and the total score of the nurse work-life quality scale was 81.00 ± 12.46 before the intervention and 91.08 ± 11.06 after the intervention. The post-test scores of the control and experimental groups were statistically significant ( P < .05). Conclusion: It was found that the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program was effective in nurses’ work motivation and quality of work-life during the pandemic period.

“…Bahar et al also found that nurses working continuous day shifts experienced higher job satisfaction. 29 The Turkish Nurses Association (TNA), in its report on the working conditions of nurses, stated that working long shifts with constantly changing hours adversely affects nurses' circadian rhythms, as well as the quality of patient care, safety, and their family and social life. 30 Similarly, the International Labor Organization (ILO) reported in 2016 that one of the most significant stressors for nurses related to their working environment is the shift and on-call working system.…”

Background: Missed nursing care is a multifaceted phenomenon defined as neglecting or delaying any or all necessary patient care. Its impact on patient outcomes and quality of care has been established. Aim:This study aims to assess the prevalence of missed nursing care in pediatric clinics, identify its causes, and explore its relationship with nurses' job satisfaction. Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with 185 pediatric nurses in all inpatient clinics of a training and research hospital from June to December 2021. The Personal and Professional Characteristics Form, the Missed Nursing Care Scale (MISSCARE SURVEY -Pediatric Version), and the Minnesota Satisfaction Scale were utilized. Data were collected from 94 nurses via Google Survey and 91 nurses through self-report on a voluntary basis, and analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-tests, one-way analysis of variance, Bonferroni and Pearson correlation tests.Results: It was found that 83.8% of the nurses participating in the study were female, with ages ranging from 22 to 58 years (mean 32.11 ± 7.84). The most frequently missed nursing care tasks were meeting the nutritional needs of the child according to clinical conditions (34.6%) and assisting the child to get up and walk three times a day or as per the nursing care plan if clinical conditions permit (34.6%). The primary reason for missed care was identified as a lack of labor resources. A statistically significant difference was observed in missed care practices, employment unit, working styles, and overall job satisfaction (P < 0.05). Conclusion:It was found that nurses were unable to provide at least one required nursing care during their last shift, primarily due to issues related to labor resources. Consequently, it was observed that job satisfaction among nurses decreased as incidents of missed care increased. It is recommended that improvements be made in labor resources as a priority to reduce missed care practices. Additionally, the issue should be further explored through new studies, and essential protocols should be developed to prevent missed nursing care.
